    All three would be going in as the underdogs obviously, all three are fast technical fighters with good handspeed. Povetkin has the biggest power of these three mentioned, imo, and given wlads been koed once and stopped another two times thats a potential way to end such a fight, Chambers doesnt have the power to KO KLitschko imo and although hes slippery and elusive NO ONE will beat Wlad on points as i have said for years, so IMO chambers has the least chances to beat wlad. Povetkin is easiest to hit of all these which bodes badly against a power puncher like wlad. haye i have somewhat in the middle between the other two, stylewise speaking that is, referring to power and defensive skills. He might have the power to ko Wlad though I sincerely doubt it, before he could open up to unleash he d get caught himself and though his defensive isnt bad he couldnt hold wlad off of him for 12 rounds.

    Answer: Povetkin but only in case he matures and gets his defence in order but he d need several more bouts to improve before stepping into the ring with wlad with a realistic chance to beat him.

    Without a doubt if Haye chins Vlad he will be doing his infamous drunken man impression!

    my above post alludes to a scenario where WLADIMIR clashes against either of the three. vitali is a different matter

    Haye beats both of them, but takes longer with Wlad

    Picked Chambers if I have to choose between those 3, I think he's the best of them right now I suppose Haye has a lucky haymaker chance but I think the chance of him getting knocked out horribly himself is alot greater and as for Povetkin it seems he's just scared to even go up against Wlad doubt that will help him much...

    Honestly I believe Tua stands a greater chance then either of those 3 even at this stage...

    Haye is so overrated at HW, it's amazing. Yes, he was very good at cruiser, but also vulnerable in fights with opponents that would never land a meaningful punch on either Klischko. Neihter brother would be a in battle with Fragomeni or Mormeck. Sure, Wlad lost to lesser fighters on his three worst nights, but those worst nights are very unlikely to happen to the current version. If Haye struggled with Fragomeni, he would really struggle with Chagaev, who was a sparring partner for Wlad.

    And as far as Vitali's poor performance against KJ is concerned: If a bad performance for Vitali means that an opponent actually hears the final bell, it's not a sign that he is old and easy to beat. A prime Ali on a bad night was lucky to survive to 188 pound Cooper, who wouldn't have landed anything on the version of Vitali that fought Johnson. Vitali doesn't have the tools to chase and extremely defensive fighter. If Haye actually tries to win against Vitali, he wil be in a world of pain.

    You do realize that Tua would be smallest opponent in either brother's career ans that their best attribute is controlling range?

    Chambers beat a 6'7 fighter who was rated top 10, Tua just beat a journeyman. Unless Tua beats a tall top 20 fighter, I say Chambers has the best chances against the Klitschkos.

    Haye had to run against the terrible Valuev, that tells me all I need to know. He does not belong at HW and has a tiny punchers chance against the Klits. Chambers isn't strong enough. I think Povetkin has the best shot, I think Atlas actually improved his style a little, and if he improves on his head movement he can land something meaningful before being knocked the **** out.
