This boy is ranked top 3 in all of the organizations, sports an undefeated record and is only 26 years old. He is also 6'7 to boot, and word has it that it was him who the character superman was based on.
Dimitrenko Vs Haye should happen, I think it would be an amazing fight.
As for Dimitrenko....doesnt bang hard, and seems to go down easy...but hey so did Wlad...But Wlad should have been on death row for how he knocked people out before the big upset. Dimitrenko hasnt really done that.
I think they need to throw Dimitrenko in with someone very strong, throw him in with Sam Peter, some big guys that can push him around, bang him up a little to see what he's made of.
Im not sold on the guy....
It's sad, Dimitrenko vs Haye simply makes too much sense, it seems. And I hate the fact, that Wlad takes such a long break, considering that Vitaly is still uncertain if he can motivate himself for another fight.
You're right but we both know this won't happen. Two vulnerable prospects at HW are not going to fight each other before getting title fights. That just doesn't happen.
Chambers-Povetkin? Anyway it's Haye's handler's doin all the talk of a Klitschko fight next June. K2, Steward and Wlad haven't said anythin bout it and I'm hopin that does happen in Vegas next summer but probably not. Haye vs. Wlad is a ways off.
I think WBO eliminator would set the record straight bout both these fighters and their abilities. C'mon now Haye shouldn't get a shot after one fight against a top 20 contender, is this matchup really that far-fetched? WBO should get that shit together.

They're talking about Wlad vs. Haye next June, which means Wlad will not be fighting for 6 months. I might have to change my sig, unless Dimitrenko becomes mandatory for Valuev/Chagaev winner.
After the Hoffmann fight, when asked about how Sascha would cope with Valuev and the other champions.
Zdunek is going to have a hard time to prepare Dimitrenko for Wlad, whom he trained before, not to mention that he trains Vitali, who is Wlad's brother. Maybe that's why Dimitrenko is nowhere near the title shot, which he deserved IMO.
He was dropped by Timo Hoffmann aswell. I'm not sold on him, and I think Universum isn't either. Even Sdunek (his coach) said Wlad would be too much for him. The Krasniqi fight is pretty useless, I don't think he got any better since Thompson battered him.
Where and when did he say that?
I highly doubt that Haye will be fighting Dimitrenko, unless it is an eliminator. But it would be a great fight, Dimitrenko would try to keep Haye at bay with his job and counter every time Haye jumps in.

Dimitrenko vs. Haye for Haye's second fight. Winner faces Wlad, be a great fight see those guys go at it wit their suspect chins.

I agree. If Universum had big plans for him, they probably would've had him fight more than twice in 2008.
The upcoming Krasniqi fight is pointless at this stage in Dimitrenko's career. He should be fighting someone ranked by the sanctioning organizations.
Money man, all the Germans love to watch Krasniqi and Sasha gettin his payday aint nothin wrong with it ya kno? Just sucks cuz he could fight someone better for less money but what's the point in that man? Ya know Sultan or Sinan Samil would be good fights an are realistic since they both fight overseas. Dimitrenko thou is a KO waitin to happen. Dude's been down maybe three times fer sure twice against Hoffmann and Koval but Haye's gotta suspect chin and that ain't stopped him from success.
I haven't truly seen enough of him but from what i have seen, he looks a very good prospect and he's is undefeated. His only true "major" win has been against Vaughn Bean. He can definitely make a place in the Heavyweight division that is crowded with second class fighters.

He seems good, but he does not have a strong punch.
I would pick Wlad the winner if they fight.
Yeah i think some people leaves his name out when talking about the HW prospect, Haye and povetkin comes up alot more than Dimi, He just need some exposure to the americans that all.
