    I was under the impression the reason he fought Chisora was in order to get the match with Vitali?

      Here, here! Booth said a top 15 opponent, non-English and undefeated. That makes it a small pool of fighters:

      - Helenius
      - Povetikin
      - Pulev

      Who am I missing?

        Depends what rankings Booth is going with, theres some pretty bad fighters in the org's top 15 like Pianeta.

          Vitali decided to send an offer when the Haye-Chisora fight was set to go, he wanted Haye to pull out of the Chisora fight. Haye said he'd fight Chisora and fight Vitali in September, Team Klitschko was having none of it and signed to fight Charr 1 week before the Haye-Chisora fight. The offer came after Klitschko'a team said they weren't interested in David Haye and told him to fight Chisora, which is why Haye chose to fight Chisora in the first place.

            Beat Chisora and you can fight Klit. Did they stick to their side of the bargain? Boente and the Klits are worse.

              He fought Chisora because it was personal and he knew he was a domestic level fighter with no power.

                Klit must have then too. Still couldn't knock him down or out.

                  Chisora also fought two different fights and he can't really trade with anyone with power simply because he has none. And please remember that Vitali was 40 years old and way past his prime. For some reason that is a fact that always seems to slip past Vitali's detractors.

                    The fact is that you accused Haye of picking Chisora because he was a domestic level fighter who had no power yet Klit fought him 5 months earlier and couldn't knock him down or out. Furthermore, you pull out the age card to suit your agenda. Double standards or what!!!

                      I guess you would be right about the double standard if I thought that Chisora was a great pick by Vitali. However, that is simply not the case. Because I never thought that Chisora was a good opponent for either brother. And if I remember correctly most fans agreed with that.

                      And the only thing that the Chisora-Vit fight proved to me, is the fact that Vit has gotten old and he is most definitely not the same fighter he was just a couple of fights ago. I also learned that at times Chisora can move his head well. I don't think that is biased opinion it's just the facts. As the saying goes Father Time is the only one that truly goes undefeated.

                      As for bringing up Vit's age. The only way the age factor could possibly be a double standard would be if Haye happened to be 40 years old and was actually way past his prime instead of just acting as if he was.
