    Im just curious what you think about possible opponents for the Klitschkos. It is often said, that they don't fight "real" opponents, and are just picking the weak ones.
    Who do you consider a legitimate opponent for the Klitschkos?

    Unfortunatley there isn't a legitimate challenger who who has a decent chance of winning.

    Adamek will give them the closest fight, but apart from a big heart he's not got the tools to beat either brother.

    Haye.

    Failing that I'd like to see them in there with Adamek.

    Other than Haye, who won't step in with them, there really is noone out there.

    Adamek wants more tune ups, Valuev is running, Povetkin is running and Haye seems to be unwilling to risk his WBA strap just yet and may want to milk it for a few more easy paydays before putting it on the line.

    Adamek will happen in 2011. WBO mand for Wlad. Hopefully Haye grows a pair, but I wouldnt bet the house on it.... povetkin IMO will NEVER grow a pair. Solis is coming, .... Maybe TUA if he keeps winning (not that he is prime).... maybe Valuev gets some balls attached while in the hospital having his legs fixed

    Hope in the next year a real decent challenger will step up, there are a few prospects coming and we still don't know how good guys like Boytsov and Helenius are... Maybe some still unknown fighter shows up but actually there's nothing out there to really challenge them.
    Adamek is mentioned, but how many really think he can beat either Klitschko?
    And Haye... well... seems he's even avoiding Chagaev... says enough really.
