    Hopefully this happens, it's a intriguing matchup.

    Solis vs. Austin would not be interesting, because it would not be competitive. Solis would easily win.

      Haye will be glad Solis is taking the WBC route.

        It is only intriguing because Solis has become a fat slob.

        A leaner Solis would use movement to dominate Valuev. Now, it will probably be closer than that.

          Definitely, although that it would be an opportunity to avenge his amateur loss to Solis.

            I rather see Austin/solis because Austin is in shape & won an eliminator.valuev just doesn't get his punches off anymore.at 7' & 320 with 50 some fights I think it's finally caught up to him.he's just not busy enough in his fights.austin had 1 bad fight vs wlad but he has improved his conditioning & shed 25 pounds.I'd like to see him again as long as he's kept the weight off inbetween fights.

                  Valuev's camp might run the deadline down so that they can get a rematch with Haye.
