    After 4 yrs off i doubt if Vitaly stay on his feet against Peter. I'll say it again Haye has a chance in this shitty division.

    He'll never see a Klit or Sam. He'll get chalked by his first HW, if he goes straight into the mix.

    Haye may not be successful or have any longevity as a HW...but he'll make for some good drama and that's all I can ask from the guy.

    As for CW, There are some great fights to be made and I can't wait to see em (Adamek/Cunninham, Arslan/Enzo etc etc)

    Jesus H Christ.

    We have the most **** poor HW division in years, an exciting boxer comes along and looks to make the division something to talk about again and all the people on here can say is he'll never do anything.

    Who gives a **** a one way or another (apart from him obviously) how it does go, at least it'll be worth watching one way or the other.

    Haye is EXACTLY what the division needs right now.

    Czech olympic silver medalist Rudolf Kraj will square off against Italian brawler Giocobe Fragomeni for the vacant WBC cruiser weight title.

    I guess the Italian will be the huge underdog against Kraj who convincingly beat American Matt Godfrey in his last outing to a ring.

    I agree whole heartedly. I don't think it does any good trying to predict this...I'd rather sit back and watch it unfold because one way or another we're going to be in for a show.

    I fancy Fragomenni by upset here.


    Anyway, viva Haye.

    That would be a huge upset to say the least, Kraj is the better boxer, has got a very good chin and he's definitely gonna have the hometown advantage as well, thanks to his powerful promoter Universum.

    Kraj UD

    Agreed, and he's got a pretty good chin too.
    I just think he lacks the punch necessary to take Kraj out and can't trouble him enough skillwise.

    He's going to be a top 5 contender most likely land anywhere from #3 to #1 spot. being a former champion and not losing you title means alot when moving up in weight.
