    I dont fancy his chances much with Wlad either lol. But he would have a shot.

    Vitali is a much tougher fight...he can take it and dish it out.

    He certainly proved it in the Lewis fight, but that was a long time ago.

    I believe his current status has been flattered by the poor state of the heavyweight scene, and somebody like Haye could possibly make him look rather ordinary.

    True, but the link was to demonstrate that sometimes weight up to a point is meaningless.

    Well his fight with Peter proved hes still got alot left. He was far and away the best Heavyweight 2nd only to Lewis. Nobody has really been able to counter his style, chin and power.

    We all know about Haye's offence but the chin department will decide this fight. Vitali takes some of Haye's shots..but what happens to Davids chin when he starts getting picked off by Vitali?

    David Haye should not gain weight, the weight he was for barrett is fine. He has speed on his side which no other heavweight does.
