    Good. And hopefully it's Haye, so that once Vitali destroys him and sends him into retirement, people can hush up not only about Vitali, but Haye as well.

      Sounds alright.

      I think it should be done in a way that fits the money generated. If other opponents who do nothing to add viewing figures get 25% (for example) then Haye should get a bit more than that given he will be bringing viewers to a fight people want to see.

        He should fight Haye.

          Haye deserves 50% based on the fact that no other fight would garner even half the interest.
          A fight with Tyson Fury might bring as much interest. Haye already had his shot at a Klitschko, and fought passively for 11 2/3 rounds. Fury will go on to a very good career while Haye will retire, so in the long run Fury a better fight for Vitali's resume.

          Povetkin-Vitali would be a HUGE event in Eastern Europe, although not in the UK or the US.

          The opponent who would garner the most interest is his brother Wladimir, but that fight will never happen.

            Screw Fury... Coudln't care less.

            A Klitschko?

            When will people learn... Wlad and Vitali are two different people, with two different legacies and two different styles.

              But not as much money.

              Fury fights on Channel 5 (free-to-air).

                Haye is the fight I want to see.

                I would love to see Vitali TKO6 Haye whist behind on the cards...that would bring so many laughs on here

                      I actually think Tyson Fury would give Vitali quite a few problems (as ridiculous as it sounds).
