      Ibragimov


      That leaves the possible opponents, whose names are already circulating in the media (included in this poll)

      Sanders
      Holyfiled
      Rahman
      Briggs
      - name never mentioned, but I think it would be a good solid opponent for Wlad. A former champion, who beat Lyakhovich and lost a decision to Ibragimov. Shall Wlad win, it would be nice to compare his win to Ibragimov's and shall Ibragimov beat Chagaev it will be a good Unification fight build up
      I cant believe anyone would have enough balls to bring up briggs after his last 2 pathetic fights. sultan easily beat briggs and drew with austin who was destroyed by wald with one hand in 2 rounds. a biggs wlad fight would be a 2 round joke simialr to his austin fight

          Sad, but it seems that Holyfield seems to be the best opponent out there. Still, I say that Wlad should wait for the Chagaev/Ibragimov fight and then organize the fight with the winner, everything else seems pitiful, including the Holyfield option.

            It's kinda odd that Valuev isn't on this ****** list. Valuev is a credible opponent as anyone else in the division and is IMO a tougher fighter than many of Wlad’s previous opponents. Also, this fight would not be such the mismatch as was the Brew, Brock and Byrd fights were. What Valuev lacks in skill, he makes up for in size, experience and endurance. Plus, who knows what to expect from Valuev if he is fighting for his ‘survival;’ he might be very dangerous opponent if he feels Klitschko is trying to put him away.

            Also, both fighters have huge fan followings in Germany and would undoubtedly sell out the largest of arenas in Germany and generate lots of money for everyone involved. Both fighters could walk away from this fight substantially richer. Ya know I think this is the best option for Klitshko while he waits for the winner of Chag-Ibra..

              It's not a good thing for Wlad to fight aging former contenders who are well past their best, it won't make his record look good and the result will be a foregone conclusion. having said that, it's always entertaining to see Rahman get KO'd.

                  But yes I agree out of the choices holyfield stands best chance..
                  I'm sorry, didn't the question post the premises that Sam Peter WAS NOT available as one of the choices? Isn't it true that Sam Peter is actually fighting in the fall and thus is automatically excluded from the list of possible opponents for Wlad for fall?
                  After all that, if I am a moron, what are you? Probably a 10 year old who is used to answering multiple choice questions on your test at school while guessing half the answers, therefore not reading the questions to begin with.

                    Why isn't Valuev a viable opponent? I think he's the best option...

                      Briggs

                      It was reported today that Shannon Briggs is calling Wladimir out.

                      I'd love to see Wlad KO Briggs, but the fight wouldn't prove anything. Rahman would be okay, he would be a good name on Wlad's resume but an easy win IMO. Sanders was already avenged by Vitali, although it might be somewhat interesting.

                      I think the best choice is Holyfield. He is actually physically fitter than the overly-steroided Briggs and overweight Rahman, and still more capable than the over-the-hill Sanders.

                      Wlad is too much of a gentleman to injure Evander badly. The fight would make a lot of money, and raise the profile of boxing (get it back on the sportspages). A loss to Wlad would be an honorable exit for Holyfield.

                      There is no ideal opponent for Wlad right now, but I chose Holyfield.
