Possible opponents for Wladimir since Haye got injured...

[JohnnyKickAss]

1.Alexander Povetkin:Wlad has to fight him anyway...so why not now...

2.Chris Arreola:This fight would be to early for Arreola,but Wlad wants him...

3.Ruslan Chagaev:Says he fights anyone and since his fight with Valuev is off I wouldn't mind seeing him against Wlad...doubt it will happen,but still...

4.Nikolay Valuev:I mentioned Chagaev so I also have to mention Valuev,but if Val doesn't want to fght Chagaev he sure won't fight Klitschko...



Who else...?

I wish Wlad and Vitali would fight each other for christ's sake Would definately make for headlines.


Other than that let's see Wlad take on Chewy.

The fact that Valuev has never even been close to a fight with Wlad or Vitali speaks volumes.

[Gandalf]

It should be Valuev. But none of these muppets ever want to fight each other anyway. The HW's really suck.

[Nameless]

I think that there is a good possibility of Valuev-Wlad, however, it will depend on one factor: who will have the belt between him and Chagaev?

If ever Chagaev retains the belt because it's proven that either he was not sick or that Valuev's camp did decline to take the famous medicine 24 hours prior to the fight, then Valuev is titleless and to give him an ASAP opportunity to obtain one becomes quite attractive. However, if ever the alphabetic soup decides that Valuev has the title, you can be sure that neither Sauerland or the puffy one will ever let him fight Wlad straight away, in which case, Arreola and Povy become, I think, the 2 most interesting possible fights in the circumstances.

I don't think you will see any of the more prominent heavyweight names stepping in at this late stage.
Klitschko did seem adamant that the date would remain, so a "second tier" heavyweight will probably be drafted.

However, if I could pick the fight I wanted tro see I would be interested in Povetkin vs. Klitschko.
I think Povetkin has an inside game, which applied properly could trouble Klitschko.

I think Wlad, like most Manny Steward fighters, relies entirely on the Longer distance, so for me I'd like to see Povetkin vs. Wladmir.
