Wladimir: Haye is the only fight I want now, not Peter,Povetkin or anyone

One thing is for certain. Booth needs to spend the next few months teaching Haye how to put up an effective guard. If he goes into a Klitschko fight with the same guard that he used against Ruiz, it may end very messily.

I don't understand why anyone thinks Haye stands a chance against either of them. Vitali absolutely murders him, while Wvlad paws him with a jab all night long. Haye stands less of chance against them than RJJ did when he was HW.

Haye and the Klitschkos are in league with each other man, there is no doubt in my mind. One or the other fight will happen for sure. The Klitschko IMO are well aware of the kind of finances at stake with the fight. If they can make the money they do fighting out of shape crusierweights / Light Heavies then the money on show against Haye will be spot on.

I would absolutely love to see Haye win though, unfortunately, the Klits are true Heavyweights, or even Super HW and I reckon after seeing all fail lately that Haye would struggle to get anywhere near inside to land. I don't remember Arreola, SafetyPin Johnson or Chambers get anywhere close to landing clean effective shots.

Your last sentence is very true, BUT none of them have the speed or explosiveness of Haye. When did either brother fight a man who had true speed at HW, good power at HW, good mobility at HW, someone who is a genuine athlete and isn't carrying about 30lbs of fat and finally (and this yet has to be proved but I believe it to be true) not have a fear of the Klits? Roll these assets into one and you have David Haye.

I'm glad that this fight is looking like coming off, I am a fan of Haye but first and foremost i'm a boxing fan and to me boxing needs the glamour division being spoken all over the world and these are the fights that will get the world talking. I already have had a good 10-15 armchair boxing fans at work asking me who I think wins in these fights and the only other fight I've had these questions about is Pac-Floyd. To me that shows there is a genuine interest out there for these fights.

Only problem I see now in negotiations is I think ODLH would like Haye to be shown on HBO putting in a strong exciting performance in the mould of the Ruiz fight live in the U.S. so he can start the marketing machine going over there for Haye and then get him in with one of the admittedly better known (in the U.S.) Klits. I certainly see the fight coming off in the next 12 months though.
