    He's on setanta saying that he wants Vitali now, because it's a bigger challenge and he'll get more accolades.

    I thought he had to go after Wlad, purely because of his chin. To go after Vitali is madness, but sums up Haye, a real throwback fighter and I'd say there's nobody else like him in boxing at the moment.

    No point fighting Solis as the guy is a 100% disgrace. He is not dedicated and is getting fatter after each fight. The guy has huge titties and Haye would not him spark out as he has too much speed for the big fat solis of today.

    I'm becoming a really big Haye fan. He's the complete opposite of certain other popular British fighters.

    I would prefer him to fight Wlad first. I think he could win that fight and it makes the Vitali fight much bigger.

    I wasn't a fan of Haye, somewhat indifferent to him, but if this is his attitude, then you have to respect it, certainly makes a change.

    I think the Wlad fight should happen first as well.

    Not only does he stand a better chance of winning, it makes the whole big bro/little bro thing more significant.

    Haye has a chance at Wlad, but I think Vitali has his number.

    It says something that no-one bats an eyelid at him actually asking for these fights though. He's definitely got the skills and the approach to be admired.

    I think he'd come unstuck against Vit but I think he'd land on Vlad and it'd be gameover on that one.

    The thing is I think he has the skills to do 'em both IF he uses them. It's a big ask but it may be fun watching!

    I like Haye and hope he clears the division out. For me though, both brothers beat him.

    His attitude is spot on but id rather se him fight another couple of HWs before he attempts any of the Klitschkos then go for Wlad 1st.

    I doubt he's got that much say in the matter. The Klitchko's are the big names, they have the belts, if they say he can fight Vitali first, he hasn't got many bargaining chips of his own, he's going to take the offer.

    Yea, you've got to give Haye his dues for wanting to fight the best guys out there - it's refreshing.

    Only had 22 fights and he wants Vitali! You've got to hand it to him. No fighting light-heavies and middles in Manchester for Haye! He really puts the other top brit names to shame (both of them-hint hint).
