    I suspect a lot of people will say Wlad, but I am thinking possibly Vitally.

    I think that father time has to catch up with VK soon, and perhaps his reflexes have dulled to an extent that his recent opposition has not been able to highlight.

    He should fight Wladimir, simply because that is the fight to be made at the weight. Wlad is the man (something Haye needs to understand), and Haye is his contender, you can't expect Wlad to fight his brother.

    I think stylistically Haye has a better chance against Wlad than Vitali, because Haye does have the power to get a stoppage imo. But Wlad will probably stop Haye. Against prime Vitali i think Haye would get demolished, but Vitali is blatantly past prime now so you never know. Still, i don't see hpw Haye is supposed to beat Vitali from a stylistic perspective, Vitali is terrible technically but has good timing and dominates the ring, at least he did in his prime anyway. It would look pretty spectacular if Haye tested Vitali's chin and timber'ed him.

    I'd go with Vitali.

    He seems to be slowing a lot lately and although he's still a very good fighter, age is catching up with him.

    Of course there's the argument that Wlad has the weaker chin, but I really think Haye would struggle with Wlad.

    I hope he takes a fight with Vitali next

    Vitali.

    Who was the last fighter Vitali took out with one punch? There haven't been very many. Wlad does the pulling-the-wings off the bug thing too but the shots he dispatches opponents with often look like they would have done the job. I don't think Vitali is likely to take out Haye with one shot but Wlad could. Vitali is old and on the slide. Young, powerful, fast, Haye is just the type of guy that takes this type of champion out.

    But they buzz is they want Wlad. There must be a reason for that.

    Read on BBC website earlier that Vitali has offered Haye a 50/50 deal and wants to get a date sorted within the next month for a fight in the spring.

    I'd prefer:

    Adamek, then Vitali, then Wlad.

    Vitali. He just isn´t as good as his brother, older, slower and less mobile.

    I'm not all that bothered about seeing Haye/Adamek anymore to be honest.

    I'd much rather him sign a fight with Vitali

    He has every chance to beat Vitali right now imo. The guy is ripe for the picking.

    Depends if Adamek gets too him first.
