Yeah I suppose if you're looking at it that way then he definitely could become a champ going for somebody like Chagaev. Just not sure how he would fare against big, durable (like you said) hitters with some skill to boot.
Worth a go though, its a good time to make history in the heavyweight division. Some people are a little too confident in him going up to the heavyweights though just based on that Bonin victory. We'll have to wait and see.

By the way has anybody got the video of Haye's solitary loss? I've never seen it before and can't find it anywhere. Anyone got a link to Haye vs Karl the Kat?
