We all know that Haye will be angling for a big fight with Vitali but who else would you want to see him have a go at? I think a fight in the states against Adamek could make an attractive proposition for Haye and would be a relatively easy fight for Haye. It would also get rid of Adamek at a top level at HW. Fights with Povetkin or Arreola would be interesting and more of a challenge as well.

Edit- Just remembered the HW tourney which would be great to see haye in but it would never happen would it? :-(

Maybe I ask too much but I want him to fight as many as possible, even if they're not great names on paper. Add them together and knock them out impressively and Haye could've established a proper legacy. A lot of Mike Tyson's wins aren't that great but when you add them all up along with the likes of Spinks, Ruddock, Holmes etc it becomes a good record.

Haye should go to America next and fight someone like Arreola. Forget the Klitschkos, Haye should've been spending the last 4 years making sure his heavyweight record includes everyone but them. Then he can go for them legitimately and if he still came up short, at least he still beat everyone else. After the loss to Wlad, Haye was a joke because all he had on his record to back up his big claims was Valuev and Ruiz. If he'd have had entertaining wins over the likes of Arreola, Chambers, Povetkin, Helenius, Sam Peter, Dimitrenko etc as well he wouldn't have got so much hate.

Haye should stick around, he's at his fighting prime, coming off a big and entertaining fight, lots of fans, highly marketable and has the ability to beat most of the other heavies out there.

Why fight 3 times a year when you can earn major money only fighting once?

There are plenty of big, plodding HWs with a world ranking he would easily beat but they wont generate enough money. If Vitali wins his election then he will retire & that fight will never happen, if Vitali loses then the fight sells itself.

Most likely scenario imo is Haye-Vitali never happens. Next summer Haye will fight Povetkin or whoever holds the WBA belt, although the WBC will be up for grabs once Vitali retires but Wlad will probably pick that up against some no-hoper.

Haye has always been in it for the money so he is not going to go to America and fight Arreola or to Germany to fight Povetkin.

Last night he earned a shot at Vitali which, if he wins, leads to a re-match against Wladimir. He only has 1 or 2 fights left.

Forget Haye Vitali / Wladamir. He doesnt deserve it or the payday.

The guys I want to see Haye with now are:

Arreola
Mitchell
Povetkin
Price
Pulev
Chambers
Maybe Solis if he gets another win

Other then them I dont want to see Haye out again

And Thompson, Kevin johnson, Mormeck and the like did deserve their title shots? Nah mate, while I agree that Hay shouldnt fight Wlad again, hes more deserving of a shot against Vitali than any other contender around. And he has a far better chance against him to.

Ooooh.... Haye vs Stiff Mitchell, that would be fun whilst it lasted. Would never happen though. More likely someone like Price will have to face him in a big US vs UK showdown in next 2 years.

Realistically its Vitali or bust, doubt the general public would even wanna see a Wlad 2 fight.
