Re: British board likely to refuse the Chagaev fight
yeah i can see it to....they'll build Rahman up.......the former linea heavyweight champion of the world who knocked lennox lewis out with a single shot, he's been in there with the best including Holyfield, ( all of a sudden they'll say he pushed Wlad all the way until he got caught with a lucky punch) Rahmans a top tier fighter the last 10 years etc etc etc.....thats what they do, B.S everyone to give it the build up you'd get if a prime tyson was fighting a prime holyfieldNot even the good Ibragimov. It'll be Rahman I tell ya.
If I was managing the guy this is what I would do. There are 2 routes he could go by.
#1 Actually test himself as a heavyweight (in no order): Povetkin, Sam Peter, Tomaz Adamek, Eddie Chambers, Cris Arreola, Holyfield, Pianetta, Boytsov
#2 Another easy fight (in no order): Dimitrenko, Krasniqi, Dominick Guinn, Timur Ibragimov, Hasim Rahman, Valuev II, Sergei Lyakhovich, James Toney, Mormeck II, Tarver, Roy Jones Jr. (Sad to say it)

O_o No god not them two. Sosnowski beat Pianetta (no matter how the judges saw it, Albert dominated the Italian kid) and Holyfield would back up the idea that Haye only fights old men.

Re: British board likely to refuse the Chagaev fight
knowing him the way we all do he'll go for the easy option everytime
Yes but Sosnowski is a different style fighter and styles make fights. I think a big southpaw with decent power is usually a tough ask for anyone.
Holyfield is still durable and still has great work ethic.
Sosnowski wouldn't be a horrible choice either. Good durable fighter.
I personally want to see the guy fight a durable fighter with good power just to see what happens and how he copes.

Re: British board likely to refuse the Chagaev fight
Pianetta really isn't very good, IMO and it's not a fight that would do anything for Haye.
Holyfield is a terrible choice old, and shot beyond ****
Sosnowski...the same guy who Vitali got slated for? (I like Albert and think he's a decent hard worker, but just got no)
Thompson would be a decent choice imo (even if he is old he's tough and talented) but was a sparring partner, Ustinov could be interesting...if it wasn't for the fact he's slower than a shed.
Solis or Adamek would have been the best choices outside the Klitchko's of course.
Thompson won't happen, Ustinov is a K2 fighter so you have to reckon if he refuses to fight Wlad or Vitali he'll refuse to fight Ustinov.
Sam Peter is still a good fight IMO, he's got power, a good chin, and he can box a bit.
Eddie Chambers wouldn't be horrible.

Eddie Chambers is a bloody good fighter. More than just a 'fat' cruiserweight' anyway...

Re: British board likely to refuse the Chagaev fight
Yeah but he puts in cowardlike performances once he gets hit hard. He just starts blocking and holding, doesnt even try to go offensive.

To be honest, I'd like his chances against Haye.Yeah but he puts in cowardlike performances once he gets hit hard. He just starts blocking and holding, doesnt even try to go offensive.

Re: British board likely to refuse the Chagaev fight
Apologies for that one Boogie....... It was just simply a reference to is condition. He's a good boxer, I agree, but if he was actually in great condition, he would be a cruiserweight. He always looks fat IMO.

Was it you?!Apologies for that one Boogie....... It was just simply a reference to is condition. He's a good boxer, I agree, but if he was actually in great condition, he would be a cruiserweight. He always looks fat IMO.
Tbh, I agree. If he can make CW, I think he should too. His power would shine though.
Chambers has quick hands and underrated power but he's slow afoot and he'd get circles run around him.
