    i reckon he will outbox peter, possibly tko him but not too sure cos peters chin is fairly good. most likely haye will win by UD against peter, i think he can stop sultan, sultan isnt tha bad a boxer actually, nice jab and defensive skills but i think he will keep haye at bay for a while with his skill, then haye will close in with those devastating power shots and and KO/TKO him. as for wlad, i expect haye to have trouble with that jab of his, probably absorb a few, get tagged by some more straights coming in, maybe even get wobbled or even dropped once, before managing to land some of those power shots and back wlad up, working his way to a KO against a china chinned wlad.

    just my personal opinion, and only in a year or so, not right now.

      Haye's biggest problems will come from smaller , faster ,mobile Heavyweights in my opinion.
      And they are few and far between with regards to any with skill.

          Of course he can unify the belts, he has all the skills to do it, whether he puts enough work in to do it and whether he underestimates his opponents is another story...

              Haye won't get any Heavyweight belts. He couldn't beat of one the current holders, let alone all of them

                Meh with the "great" fighters we have at HW I think Haye can get a belt or two. There's just no way in hell he'll beat Wlad. No way at all.

                  I think haye can grab a belt at HW and be a factor in the division but too many people expect him to waltz right in and start cleanin up. He'll do well as a HW but I don't see him as the guy to consolidate the titles.

                    Look with regards the thompson fight, any young fighter taking on a former world champion in thier 11th fight should be praised.
                    As Haye has said before he wants to 'roll the dice' and im pretty sure he could of remained undefeated and unified the CW division with 40-0 record and everyone would be going on about what a great CW he is.
                    But as mentioned before has cleaned up after 22 fights ripping through the best domestic, european and world level fighters.
                    This guy has some balls and just wants to go out and fight the best, something us boxing fans should be applauding
                    Whether he is successful and unifies the HW division or not is another question, but be under no illusion we wont have to wait long to find out, and good luck to him.
                    I do get the feeling alot of the hate towards him stems from the fact he has a personality and a playboy lifestyle and isn't like the eastern european robots. This guy is such a good ambassador for the sport, hes selling out 20,000 capacity after 22 fights and hes making the sport exciting again.

                    The one thing i would say is that he has to be slightly careful how he deals with a possible Wladimir fight, in the sense hes got his attention he has the boxing worlds attention but he should show a bit of respect now as Wladimir is total class outside the ring and could come off looking like the bad guy.
