    The fight was not close.. You are either a delusional revisionist or you didn't watch the fight.

        Povetkin is a pretty good fighter, but I just don’t see anyone beating Wlad right now.

            Agreed. Povetkin is the 4th or 5th best HW out there right now IMO. I think Haye beats him clearly and Fury gives him problems.

              I really like Haye, but that fight wasn't close at all. I am picking Haye to beat Fury in a close fight (if it happens), but Tyson can definitely win. If they do fight and Haye wins, I doubt anyone will give him credit- everyone will just say that Fury was overrated. It's a payday and British bragging rights for Haye and little else, though Haye is already in a position to make big non-Klitschko fights. I honestly don't see any scenario in which Wlad would fight Haye again, and I think if the Vitali-Haye fight was ever going to happen it would have done so already. In the off-chance that Povetkin beats Wlad, I don't see Alexander ever agreeing to fight Haye. Povetkin is likely to defend against up and coming Polish and Russian fighters at 3 mil per rather than taking on Brits and Americans.

              In other words, I don't see Haye getting another shot at the real title anytime soon unless he looks spectacular in his next 3-4 (which I think he did against Chisora).

                I'm looking forward to this snuff film and Povetkin getting beaten into submission.
                Sometimes fans get overly excited and therefore express to many feelings and to much information. For an example see above.

                  I believe Fury is way overrated but I for one will still give Haye all kinds of credit for beating him. As for Haye fighting another four fights that might take him another ten years to accomplish that.

                    I don't think he would, the man is a shithouse. Talks a great game but when it comes to it isn't a fighting man. He completely pussied out of the Wladimir fight after chasing it for a couple of years.

                      Confidentiality agreement? Excellent, what we need in boxing is for the drug testing in major fights to be shrouded in secrecy. Openness and transparency for something so important would be a nightmare.
