    Otherwise, I'd say he should fight Valuev.
    Yeah. Fight Valuev on June 20 and Haye can take on Vitali in the fall ay Wembley.

      1: Postpone the Haye fight 6 weeks
      2: Fight Valuev
      3: Fight Chagaev
      4: Fight Holyfield
      5: Fight Minto

      Poll coming.
      Hard to call..

      1. postponement- is there an arena readily available for that date? Wlad is probably peaking and wants to fight soon.

      2.Valuev-Is king willing to make this fight? will dk want options on klits next fight? dk is a pain in the ass

      3. Chagaev- Is he healthy enough to fight? due to his history wouldnt be surprised if he pulled out he day before

      4.Holyfield- wlad would kill him

      5.Minto- nice guy, tough fighter.. he is not world championship caliber

      I guess if it could be worked out i would go with option 2 and fight the big fella

        Valuev fight will likely not be made because of Don King.

        So the best realistic choice is Chagaev. Minto would not be competitive and Holyfield might be hurt.

          I voted Valuev. But Valuev will fight Ruiz since both fighters udner Don King. So I Chagaev will sign contract and sub David. that way if wald wins he has lil piece of bs wba title, so in winter we might see boring fight wlad - valuev

              Povetkin wouldn't risk blowing his chance by taking it on short notice and being underprepared. Nor would his promotion team

                I doubt that he's in training to take a big fight on such short notice. And he'll get his shot eventually.

                  This comes to show, that if you're a contender (and full time boxer), that you should always be in training because you never know when an opportunity like this may arrive...

                    Haye has missed his chance, that's the bottom line. He's now behind Povetkin, and whoever fights Wlad on the 20th. If does get another shot I hope he does his talking in the ring and not more vile personal taunts.

                      He should fight Valuev and beat him a to a bloody pulp but then again we all know Valuev is a protected ***** who will never man up to fight Wlad.
