    My honest assessment of their respective chances of winning...

    Khan 65%
    Hatton 50%
    Froch 45%
    Haye 35%

    I hope they all win. I will actually be disappointed if Khan, Hatton or Froch lose.

    Whereas I'll be quite surprised if Haye wins ... but it would give me the biggest buzz of all four if he did. It would be ****ing fantastic.

    If he weren't such a cocky and arrogant tosser then I would agree with you because it's about time the Heavyweight division had some shaking up.

    I just can't bring myself to like the guy because of his attitude. Likewise Froch.

    Haye winning would be the biggest one. It would likely be in dramatic fashion too when we consider all elements.

    Cruiser > heavyweight champion.

    It would be big. I think that would really send shockwaves around this board.

    Oh it would be huge, absolutely huge

    After the 100 or so year wait for a British heavyweight champ, when we finally got one it felt like a damp squib... the Canadian-accented Lennox getting awarded a belt that Bowe had dumped in a bin, if I remember rightly

    The closest we got to that pivotal moment of glory was the Ruddock win I guess

    I was thrilled for Bruno but that didn't feel like we had the best heavy in the world either did it?

    I think Haye KO'ing a Klit would almost be the first bona fide 'British heavy going out proving he's the best' moment in living memory

    He'd have to beat Vit to get the full acclaim but still...

    The boards of ESB would go 'Hayewire' (sorry)

    I think Froch has the best chance followed by Haye Khan and Hatton.
