David Haye to name comeback opponent tomorrow

[yoz]

Former world heavyweight champion David Haye will announce on Tuesday he is to return to the ring after an absence of more than three years.

Haye, who has not fought since he stopped fellow Briton Dereck Chisora in 2012, is to hold a news conference at London's O2 Arena at which his next opponent will also be present.

The 35-year-old has been training with Shane McGuigan - son of former world champion Barry - and has indicated he wants to reclaim the world title he lost to Wladimir Klitschko in 2011.

Legendary former world heavyweight champion George Foreman believes Haye could be the only person who can take the belt from Ukrainian Klitschko.

Londoner Haye tweeted: "You sure know your stuff George Foreman and you'll be happy to know I'll be back to regain the heavyweight crown #HayemakerIsBack."

Klitschko, 39, is preparing to fight another Briton, Tyson Fury, in Germany on Saturday. He has not lost a fight since 2004.

Former two-weight world champion Haye - who has won 26 of his 28 bouts - says he has had offers to fight Liverpool cruiserweight Tony Bellew, Irishman Martin Rogan, American Malik Scott and Mark de Mori of Australia.

Who do you think it will be?

Wach maybe?

[Redeaux]

Some Bulgarian call-centre operator who can't be overlooked. He'll be tough and David will have to be at his best come fight night.

[Dirk Diggler UK]

He should fight that doorman from Australia. His name escapes me at the moment.

It'll probably be someone we've never heard of.

[Hayehammer]

most likely against mark de mori, its ok considering haye has been out for more than 3 years.. not to mention he had a wrecked shoulder which is still to be tested..

[soul_survivor]

Haye's shoulder being back to 100% or as close t oit as possible is very important for his style. We'll see soon enough. I think if he is back as the 30 year old Haye, fully fit, he beats anyone out there, except Wlad and this rejuvenated...juiced?...version of Pov who seems to be knocking guys out with glancing blows lol

Haye v Perez might be interesting actually.
