    Haye will do it on this terms, Once he get everthing in order with TV Networks and promoter, he will start his path to Wlad and I think he will have 2 fights on HBO before the Wlad fight and the fight with Wlad will happen this time next year it everything works out.

    It already goes on once he rehydrates, I never got why they said that.

    Exactly.

    What's the big deal? A fight with Tua would gain him nothing. I'd expect him to turn it down.

    I believe the IBF agreed to let Wlad fight his WBO mandatory first with the understanding that their mandatory, Povetkin would be next & before the end of the year.

    Is that true? I'd find that hard to believe.

    Haye's jab is going to dominate the HW division

    A Rahman fight would tell us alot about Haye's potential at heavy.
    Rahman has been pretty active lately and is a true heavyweight with
    a good punch and is pretty aggressive especially early in a fight. Both
    fighters have questionable chins so the fight should be exciting. If
    Haye takes out Rahman easily he could be a real force at heavy and the
    pressure would be on Wlad to fight him.

    haye won't fight until november so it's silly of Kushner to be saying he offered his a fight in July.

    Because Sultan is very fast, hits hard & he's only been beaten once in the pro ranks (UD by Wladimir).

    Yes, I would pick Ibragimov to KO Haye before you ask.

    What type of fighter do you think best suits Haye to fight?

    I'd give Haye the best chance vs. a slower, less skilled fighter such as Peter, Maskaev, Golota, McCall or Rahman. Even in those fights he may find that true HW power is more than he bargined for. I put Golota in that list since he's old & slow and he's always been a bit of a slow starter.

    Sultan is very fast, fearless, good defense, good chin, great accuracy & enough pop in his fists to send much larger guys down.
