Who Should Haye Fight Next?

[AndyShitHot]

I'd like to see him fight Sam Peter or the winner of Thompson vs Toney. A Tony Thompson fight would be quite good prep for Wlad as Thompson is a big HW who went 11 rounds with Wlad.

this is exactly the problem, any fight other than the either of the Klitschko brothers is pointless, from a term in progressing in terms of rank, but more importantly PPV sales\TV audiences, you could argue the klitschko brothers need Haye as much as Haye wants to fight them cus neither have nowhere else to go!

Haye is becoming a worthy opponent it's true but I think he still needs a little more experience in the division. The Klitschko's would probably prefer he fights at least one more heavyweight fight to allow them to best analyze how to fight Haye, as Vitali alluded to in the interview tonight. But, it's true that commercially the fight makes sense already.

For his development it should be Dimitrenko or Peter but he'll fight a Klitschko, that seems certain after the post fight chat.

You have to admire how Haye has somehow engingeered himself a world title shot after one win against a geniune solid heavyweight.

Man is a f.ucking genius.

Most logical to take on one of the Klitschko brother's recent opponents. Interesting to see how Haye performs, compared to how the Klitschko's did. Tony Thompson, Sultan Ibragimov, Sam Peter or someone else?

Wrong, he's already targeted one of the Klitschkos. And both of them wanna fight him so the fight WILL happen next. Klitschko finally realizes that if he stands any chance he need to make it happen while they're not too old and Haye is not too experienced. It was alredy agreed that he should fight one of them should he pass the Barnett test. Think he did that pretty well so he's on!

The fight should happen, there was a verbal agreement between Haye and Klitschko on live tv, but it's not guaranteed that it will be the next fight. Wlad isn't fighting Rahman for another month yet and Vitali has a mandatory before he can face Haye.

[Don Johnson]

He should fight James Toney next. if he can't get past Toney, he should go back down to Cruiserweight.

yeah he's the master of self promotion and he has the confidence to believe he can beat both of them..........he can't though.

I like this fight I agree with you.

If he can hit Toney with a hayemaker, then everybody else in that division is f.ucked.

I really want to see Toney in the flesh and I doubt this fight could happen anywhere else but London, do you think Toney takes it?

I liked how he just looked at Vitali and said okay you'll do.

He just wants one of them. Inside he knows that he really wants Wlad.

To beat Vitali he simply doesn't have the chin or the stamina, or the concentration, or the defence, or the size, or the strength.......completely and utterly unwinnable.
