Haye should step up...

[Feint]

It's too early on in his heavyweight campaign to fight one of the big contenders.

I agree. I would like to see him fight at least two top contenders before he fights for a title.

[Silencers]

true, but he's the one running his mouth so **** it. if he's as good as he says at hw, he should back up his mouth.

It's all talk, he needs to take it step by step, he needs to prove himself and I think he knows that.

[The Hammer]

and fight the giant! it would be against a top guy at heavy, and a win would send a notice through the division. he has no problems talking so lets see some action.

I doubt whether Haye would have the courage to face Valuev.

He'll hand-pick his opponents, and probably fight old shot Maskaev and Toney.

If I'm Haye/Golden Boy, I'd throw out a press release, expressing interest in stepping in "for the greater good of the heavyweight division", and take a risk on Valuev's people calling their bluff.

Although on his not being ranked - he was recently a unified champ, which would make him a super champ w/ the WBA prior to his vacating. If it came to that, they could grant an exception, though it's normally only done for current champs.

my thing is that you should stfu, and prove yourself. if you are gonna run out the mouth be prepared to back it up, or face the on slaught if you lose, or don't make the big fights you are talking about dominating.

exactly correct......

[The Hammer]

Povetkin should offer to fight Valuev.

He would easily outpoint him, good matchup for Sasha!

Haye already has a date and arena for his next fight, i doubt it'll be against someone huge.

[Silencers]

Just a little tidbit on Haye, his heavyweight debut has moved up 1 month.

[Randall_Hopkirk]

I doubt whether Haye would have the courage to face Valuev.

He'll hand-pick his opponents, and probably fight old shot Maskaev and Toney.

Whereas Valuev will continue to fight the best? nearly 50 fights and not one elite fighter faced.
