    I like Haye if they ever fight. Povetkins defense is horrible

    This fight needs to happen and may the best man win. I'd bet on Povetkin.

    Let's see Haye face at least one of these opponents before being so certain about his chances with them all. For god's sakes, he barely squeaked by Valuev.

    I hope Chagaev is deemed fit to fight, but if not, Povetkin would be an interesting fight for Haye.

    I see Haye winning, but not very decisively.

    Povetkin, while high pressure, is not the boxer Haye is, and Povetkin has about one tenth the knockout power Haye does. But his constant pressure and decent chin will make the Povetkin fight probably Haye's toughest fight, yet. Even tougher than the Valuev fiasco.

    Povetkin is WAY too young for Haye to consider fighting, gimme a break this fight is not going to happen.

    Meehan, Chagaev, Povetkin all shitty opponents but at least Povetkin's acceptable even though it'd be a relatively easy win for that ***** Haye

    First thing they have to do is get new trainer for povetkin. Plus he injured haand last fight, may be off for a while, like 6 months.

    Exactly. :deal

    Povetkin is a very risky fight for Haye. But it's time for him to take a risk like that, before he fights a Klitschko. I would love to see this fight come off.

    U don't seem to get the fact that Haye does not handle pressure fighters well AT ALL. If Haye can't get him out early, then Povetkin would be in his chest all night.

    AP is a huge step up from any of Haye's past opponents, and don't forget: styles make fights. It's an intriguing matchup, but I can see Povetkin winning the majority in a best of 10 scenario.

    David Haye don't want this fight.

    Haye wants Mormeck or perhaps Holyfield. He is trying to get out of fighting Chagaev, and the other top contenders.

    I would love to see both duckers getting knocked out in the same second. They deserve it.
