The WBA have still not made a ruling on Nikolai Valuev´s next defence which could be against David Haye or vs mandatory challenger John Ruiz. There are now negotiations going on for Ruiz to step aside and fight on the undercard to Valuev vs Haye on November 7. [details]

This seems to point towards a sanctioned Haye vs Valuev fight with the winner facing Ruiz and I think Ruiz could well be persuaded to entertain this plan.
Which is pretty depressing.

Ruiz would have a better chance against Haye than Valuev. He knows how to work angles and tie up. His grappling would have an effect on Hayes's stamina, the Gayemaker would likely gas in the later rounds and get stopped.
That being said, Ruiz has been inactive for a year and he's getting old, so he may be close to shot by now.

Give it a rest.
I hope Haye does fight Ruiz because he is the only dude I'd trust in finally sending the beyond-dull man into retirement.
