    What Fighters present a potential threat to Klitschko? Huh?

    Perhaps Povetkin, Valuev, Haye, and in shape Peters.

    Out of all of them it seems Haye has the most overal ability. I know about athletic ability, I have been told I look like Larry Bird and Greg the Hammer Valentine.

    The main problem is that I don´t think any active boxer can beat either Klitschko (when he makes to the ring 80-100% fit). Haye has a chance of an upset but in my book it´s about 10%.

    Pretty much.
    But if I had to back one, I'd say Haye.
    (Based on his power & Wlad's Chin problems from the past)

    With a shotgun perhaps, but surely not in the Ring after such a long time in prison :D

    Either they are retired or they are not born yet...

    - a more seasoned Boytsov
    - a 235lbs version of Solis
    - a 275lbs version of Ustinov
    - a focused and hungry David Haye
    - a pro version of Camarelle (big gamble on this one)

    None of these options are ready so the Klitchkos will continue to rule.

    I don't think any of them right now, but if I were forced to choose at who would atleast get closest or do best, I'd say David Haye

    This guy would be a threat in regards to PPV draws + he has the perfect style to surprize Klitschko :

    Haye when he eventually gets in the ring, he is fast, skilled and a big hitter. He will be able to get around wlads long boring jab and land his hayemaker, then pow wlads boring reign at the top of the heavy weight is over.

    Haye is the biggest threat which is why the ongoing sorry saga is so annoying!
