    Povetkin and Holyfield are the only credible opponents, though I would give him some respect if he fought Arreola. Boystov is #2 but he isnt a name in the UK and I don't want to see him in with Haye so early in his career, give him some time.

    Haye is between a rock and a hard place. After the Harrison bout the Wlad fight is the only one people want to see.

        Povetkin, Chagaev, Boytsov and Dimitrenko would all be fine by me, but he won't fight them. He'll probably pick Rahman or Mormeck, since they're the age Haye likes his opponents to be

            Yes, that would be an interesting fight. Arreola is easy to hit, but he hits back hard with accurate combinations. Someone would get KOed.

              Who should he fight? Anyone top ranked who is 35 years old or under, for the first time in his heavyweight career. Who WILL he fight? Mormeck or Holyfield probably.

              Classic David Haye quote. "I will not fight Audley Harrison".

                Holyfield is a credible opponent? Have you seen Holyfield's last two fights? He's a shot fighter and against David Haye, he would be knocked out cold within two rounds. How is this in any way "credible?"

                    There's only one top heavyweight age 36 or over: Vitali Klitschko.

                    And there's one decent old contender who's still not shot: Tony Thompson.

                    But Haye will not fight either of them. He'll choose a faded one like Holyfield, Mormeck, Roy Jones or Tarver.
