Who should Wladimir Klitschko fight next?

[Dick Buffman]

So he should either fight Adamek or do nothing then?

If Haye and Povetkin don't want to fight no reason why he couldn't take on one of these guys who may not be ready yet as a stay busy fight.

He should fight Adamek, Haye or Povetkin.

Anything else is a waste of time for him.

Imo adamek would get easily beaten by Wlad.

[The Hammer]

Wladimir now has 9 wins over current/former world titleholders (I don't include Botha):

Peter x 2
Byrd x 2
Mercer
Ibragimov
Chagaev
Brewster
Rahman

I think he should go for the bigger names now instead of any lesser-known fighters without achievements.

Adamek
Haye (but he's unlikely to ever be brave enough)
Mormeck
Valuev (probably will no be brave enough)

These are the current HW contenders who have had a world title.

Then there's the two former amateur champions, Solis and Povetkin.

Mormeck is done and is not proven at HW whatsoever.

And Valuev just lost to Haye.

Those fights are jokes.

Then if Haye won't fight him, Adamek is the logical next opponent.

Maybe Harrison will beat Haye then Klitschko could fight Harrison.

[nomadman]

Maybe Harrison will beat Haye then Klitschko could fight Harrison.

What an EPIC showdown that would be!

[FloydTBE]

Haye-Wlad is the true heavyweight fight people want.

[cupocity303]

All he needs to do is fight Adamek and Haye and then he could retire.

Povetkin was never a big fight anyway, though I think it would be a good fight if it happened.

Wlad doesn't have the American fighter attitude of, one more fight to solidify my legacy and i'm done. He just likes to stay active, defend his belt against whoever and will probably stick around to age 38. It's all numbers.

So Haye isn't really his Pacquiao/Mayweather defining fight. He needs to just focus on getting 20x Title defenses, that would be a good goal.

[Xyei]

I think Tomasz Adamek most deserves a title shot.

After that, there will be new, younger contenders such as the winner of Chisora-Sexton, winner of Platov-Pulev and Robert Helenius.

I agree but I honestly don't think Adamek has a snowball's chance in beating Wlad. Wlad is the most dominant HW in the history of the division. I really can't see anyone beating him.
