    None of them have a chance... Maybe Haye has a chance...

        Haye's got the best chance, he's got the speed, power and ability to get under Wlad's jab and land something big.

          People make WAY too big a deal out of Wlad's height

          He's not even that huge by modern heavyweight standards - A few inches taller and pretty much average weight. His physique for his size is more impressive than his size itself, he was lean like a welterweight against chambers. Guys that big just don't condition like that usually. He may have one of the best physique/size ratios in boxing history.

          and guys like dimitrentko and valuev poopoo'd all over the old theory that anyone that tall could do the same thing as the klitsckos and that they should be regulated to "superheavyweight" etc. Not saying that's your theory but it was a popular one a short while back.

          how to beat him? who knows, it used to be timing his jab and stepping inside of it with a flurry but hes gotten much better at parrying, peter tried to pull that off again and wlad kind of took 1 shot then went "nuh uh uhhh..." and closed the hole for the rest of the fight

          haye's fighting style is bad for haye against wlad, he likes to range himself then pop off shots, he simply couldnt do that against wlad, wlad would love it and every time he saw haye twitch, that epic left hand would smash him in the nose. I see haye being another of those guys the fans accuse of "losing heart" vs a klitschko but in reality his timing is just being shut down. Haye has little to nothing in common with the guys who have actually beat Wladimir, and that was a weaker immature Wladimir.

          Povetkin leaves himself open way too much like he needs to "look at the big picture" every 30 seconds, kind of just lowers his hands and takes a peak before throwing, chambers caught him a couple times like that but if wlad catches him like that it will open his face up or knock him down. His style looks really powerful against opponents who cover up waiting for a shot to come, since he picks them and lands anyway, but again Wlad would just out-time him.

          honestly i think "prime" chagaev was better than both of these guys and would have enjoyed quite a significant reign had the klitschkos never been born. There were points where sultan looked better as well. those guys kind of threw their careers away by taking a klitschko shot early rather than beating a bunch of lower guys to establish their own name. Probably exactly why povetkin and haye seem content to just leave their names floating around rather than take their shots.

            Wlads reach is kinda short compared to other heavyweights. Hes at a reach disadvantage often. But im sure Lennox Lewis huge reach and height advantage had nothing to do with him being champion.

                Haye easily has the best chance out of any heavyweight at taking Wlad out.

                Wlad is going to have to come looking for Haye as he fights on the back foot and is a counter puncher. And due the his speed, footwork and power on the counter I believe he could take Wlad out.

                If and its a big IF the fight ever happens.

                    I think the bottom line is it's just next to impossible to get to him.
