    Haye and Pov are two lambs waiting to be slaughtered by V.K. at the slaughterhouse...... Is any of them proposed matches really necessary???? Haye has done zero to warrant a title fight with Vitali Klit, and Al Pov simply is not truly elite, but rather being carefully moved..... YAWN!

    Totally irrelevant.

    The top 5 is

    Wlad
    Vitali
    Pov
    Haye
    Adamek

    He's beaten adamek and won't fight his brother. They are the two most credible heavyweights for him to face.

    Well considering wlad's legacy is based on what he did during those 4 years and he's considered by all to be the greater brother, it stands to reason had vitali been as successful during those years his legacy would improve.

    well considering wlad has beaten a higher level of opposition, i'd disagree that vitali ranks higher than wlad h2h.

    Nobody really, but, I do like fresh faces in title fights; not recycled cans.... However, I do know "Helenius, Fury & Ustinov" are still too green and raw to be given such an opportunity just yet.....

    Screw the criteria and resume, seeing is believeing....... V.K. simply has the natural metal to succeed and win, plus, he's never been rocked or decked before, and despite his haters, his pro record is not padded with bums, stiffs and pussies like some claim..... Yes, yes, Sanders shook V.K. for a brief moment in 2004, but V.K. handled the scene well...... V.K. is my top pick as the badder-ass of the two bros....
