    Good afternoon all, been a while since i posted but after last weekends fight i see many are predicting that Haye would beat Vitali and also think he could stop the big man.

    Rewind a year ago and it was Wlad that most folk though Haye should go after but the consensus seems to be changing.

    After Haye's mandatory against John Ruiz, which could be a non event excitement wise, who should Haye target next?

    Personally i think Haye should go after Wlad as this has the potential to at least be exciting for however long it lasts.

    Wlad first, Haye would ko him inside 5, then Vitali.

    Wlad as hes got a better chance of beating him.

    Still a 50/50 fight at best though.

    Vitali first. Beat him the same way he beat Valuev. Probably have to beat him again and then Wlad by first round KTFO.

    IMO, Wlad is the easier fight. I know not everyone will agree, but I think Haye would starch him. They also genuinely don't like each other and the pre-fight build-up would be fun:yep.

    Another good reason as to why the fight is more preferable. Most consider Wlad as 'the man', and he also has the proper world title so a Haye win would mean that much more, IMO.

    Vitali first because I want to see the look on Wlads face when he realises that its up to him to defend family honour

    Was it just me or did anyone else think that Wlad looked like a total pip-squeak when Johnson squared up to him and pushed him out the road.

    Wlad as he really holds 3 of the belts ( WBO, IBF and WBA).

    Remember Valuev was only the champion as Chagaev lost it due to injury, Chagaev lost to Wlad so therefore technically he could be classified as the WBA champion.

    Also i would love to see Wlad pole axe Haye.

    You're all saying Wlad has an iffy chin and Haye power but David also has a dodgy chin and Wlad has a quality right hand (when he chooses to use it ;)). Plus Wlad has the height and reach :think. IMO, it's not as easy as everyone is makink it out to be.

    I say Haye should look to beat Vitali and unify the WBC and WBA and then fight Wlad for all the baubles. Would be the biggest HW fight since Lennox~Tyson.

    It isn't just Wlad's whiskers that makes the fight favourable for Haye, IMHO. Wlad doesn't like to fight and he'll happilly sit behind his pawing jab for 12 if need be. Haye could potentially make Wlad extremely uncomfortable. To add to that, how many of Wlad's opponents have been as fast and mobile as Haye is right now? Add Haye's power to the mix and, stylistically, I personally think Haye is all wrong for Wlad.
