Soooooooo......

Vinnie Maddalone? The guy is a crowd pleaser....Minto might make Wlad FIGHT....isn't that what people complain about, guys like Sultan and Rahman who just didn't show up and allowed Wlad to do his thing and people didn't like it. Well imagine if someone pressured Wladimir and made him fight....it might allow us to see something new from Wladimir.

Meh, Povetkin can do that better than Minto.

Although I don't know what Povetkin's hurry is but still I'd much rather see that than Minto.

boozeboxer keeps on me about throwing Serguei Liakhovich out there, but hell the last time he fought it was February of last year and he weighed 251....sure he and Wlad used to spar a bunch and supposedly had some big battles but there is just no hope for him anymore.

Povetkin is tiny....I wouldn't mind him fighting Haye for an elimination match

[OumaFan]

Still bigger than Minto

Oh hell why am I even arguing this, Minto is not a good choice

[gest12645]

Minto would get crushed

Valuev and Chagaev is unreal

other guys that come to mind are Meehan and Arreola altough i doubt hed take it

i heard also that Michael Grant is being considered by the Wlad camp

Wladimir's manager Shelly Finkel said "Our first thing is to see when [the Haye fight] can be rescheduled, but we will look at Valuev and all other options." (courtesy espn.com)

I really want the Wladimir-Valuev fight to happen...the sooner we're rid of Valuev the better.

I would make sense to offer it to Povetkin because he owes him a mandatory at some point. He and Cris fought around the same time in April. My money is on Povetkin as a guy that could be legitimately ready by June. Arreola would probably take the fight, but it would be a mistake for him at this point. Chambers is scheduled to fight Dimitrenko in an WBO eliminator. Since Dimintrenko is the #1, I would think the WBA would make Wlad offer him the fight over Chambers. Povetkin has more to deserve it than the others.

We can only hope they can make a Valuev fight happen. Wlad should make him an insane financial offer to him - offer him a 70% split, just for the sake of boxing. He wins hands down, all day, everyday, and it would be one step closer to true recognized HW champ. David Haye will always be there.
