    Would you concider the winner of Vitali vs Haye

    Would you consider the winner of a Vitali vs. Haye fight to be a great Heavyweight? Now, I don't mean greater than or equal to an Ali or Foreman, but as the truly great Heavyweight of our time, as opposed to being a really good one in a bad division? IMO, beating Wlad wouldn't do it for me, as I don't think he's better than his big brother, and I'm sure they both know that. But if any true contender managed to beat Vitali, or if Vitali fought and beat the closest peers he has in a Wlad or Haye, I would personally be willing to call the winner a truly great fighter.

    Nope, Vitali should beat Haye, easily, Haye is a chinny cruiser who's style is tailor made for Klitschko. If Haye beats Vitali, then he may eventually become a great heavyweight.

    oh btw I think Vitali is almost a great Havyweight, but he needs to beat someone better than Haye to seal the deal

      Yeah, in another era, Vitali may have been recognized as a great fighter, but this is the here and now. Who do you think would be a better victory than Haye right now, considering he isn't going to beat up his little brother? Vitali fighting Haye and father time as well. Is there anything he could do?

        I disagree, Vitali is taylor made for Haye. This is gonna be one of those fights where if you read comments pre and post fight you will be in hysterics just like Gatti-Mayweather threads.

        Mark my words, I'm willing to bet points, 100k? 200k? on Haye to win. I'll work upto those points by fight night.

          i dont think you can really argue Vitali not being a great heavy weight champ already i dont even think the division is in as bad shape as everyone says i just think the way they win there fights over everyone makes it look worse then it is. im not saying there the best heavy weights ever by any means but i think them going down as two of the greats is already a done deal. and as for Haye if he wins hes on his way but i wouldn't be calling him an all time great yet

              Basing literally everything off resume is popular but seriously, if Haye impressively beats Ruiz, he might be the most talented Heavyweight Vitali has fought in a while. If I had my way, after Ruiz, Haye would fight and beat Wlad first, then tackle big brother second. Vitali would benefit because no one could say Haye wasn't a good legit heavyweight if he were to lose to Vitali after beating Wlad, and Haye would benefit because he would get another preparatory heavyweight fight against a large heavyweight, though one who isn’t as good as Vitali. Honestly, if that scenario played out, then Vitali vs. Haye would be the most important heavyweight super fight in years with tons of media hype between the brother’s revenge angle and Haye’s personality, almost going to May vs. Pac. proportions.

                  Vitali is already a great heavyweight.

                  Haye is a glass chinned fraud who hasn't done jack **** at HW.
