    McCline would be a good opponent who is coming off a good fight with a current Champion.
    Edit: Before the Ruiz fight when he fought Peter. I didn't see the Ruiz fight.

    Haye and Harrison are best of mates apparently.

    I believe that Haye said he'd fight TWO TOP TEN fighters while Wlad took care of his two mandatories.

    I wonder if the Haye camp has started to make any calls, yet, and who they are contacting. A top ten opponent is pretty defined and hard to get a fight with, but then again, there are four sepereate top tens so Haye should be able to find one of them out of all of those fighters that he thinks he can easily beat and that will accept his fight offer.

    Of all of those, I think Haye will stay away from anyone who has just been beaten, like McCline, Liakhovich, or Ibragimov, as it would not seem like a big feat to beat them again.

    Many others are already in line for eliminator fights, or mandatory fights. Virchis, Gomez, Povetkin, Thompson, etc.

    For Haye's first fight of two heavyweight top ten opponnets.........Rahman, Ruiz, or Golota are the three that stand out in my mind. Or, Dimitrenko would be a great choice.

    But I bet he'll end up fighting Meehan, or someone on a similar threat level, for his big here I am fight.

    Haye needs to just shut his trap and fight. Has yet to have his first fight at heavy and he's already calling out the champ?!

    Rahman or Dimitrenko, both ranked highly by the WBO and IBF, the belts he wants from Wlad.

    McCline, Ibragimov, these guys would be good opponents for Haye I'd say, durable.

    Vlad was right about 1 thing Haye is no one in the HVY division, he has not yet fought a top 30 HVT. Talk is cheap but in countrys other than England, Haye is a no body. Let him start beating Skelton or Williams or one of Europes HVy's. He can even try an Eddie Chambers or Evander for that matter a win over him will get him some American press but Haye has to fight and not talk, he is not even top 40 at this point
