    Crap matchups.

    I'd much rather see Haye-Povetkin.

    No way Haye beats Vitally, tbh. The one hope we had for entertainment value and excitement returning to the heavyweight division was pretty much extinguished the moment the ink touched the contract for that fight.

    Its the wrong Klitschko, HBO should be doing their all to get Wlad-Haye together, Vitaly-Haye could be pretty dull, idiots :doh:

    agreed. The younger brothers chinny chin makes Wlad-Haye potentially explosive. Vitally-Haye has mismatch written all over it.:dunno:

    Well there's little chance of that until both get their own Klitschko fights.

    I do think that the other match-ups (Vitali-Povetkin, Wlad-Haye) could've ended up being more interesting.

    I'd much rather watch a round robin of chambers, arreola, haye, and povetkin.

    I like competitive fights.

    As much as I hate to say it, the Klitschkos are too good for the rest of the division.

    Yeah, I'm firmly in the "FUCK Haye vs. Vitali" circle.

    I'd still rather Arreola fought at least one decent heavyweight before he gets included in anything...and frankly, if Goossen wants to put Arreola back on HBO this year against someone other than a Klitschko - and that seems likely, given that both Klitschko's appear booked up for '09, unless there's a fight in December - I think they should force Arreola to fight someone.

    Arreola-Peter would lack skill and conditioning, but it'd at least give some red meat to those that like 200+ pounders to slug it out with no regard to defense.

    I'm in the Fuck Haye and can't wait to see his loud mouth get shut by Vitali circle.

    It's almost like you guys wish Haye had the path of least resistance. Fuck that guy.

    I'm with you 100%

    As much as I think Arreola sucks, I don't want to see him get peppered by Klitschko's jabs and rights. In a perfect world, he would develop through some competitive fights and might give either Klitschko a tough fight. Instead, despite his HBO exposure, he will go from Heavyweight prospect to Heavyweight has-been in what I think will be four rounds.
