ruslan about 10 lbs higher than his optimum weight...........boytsov down to 213 lbs from his average around 220 lbs.......ruslan is shot and looks like he doesnt train to hard anymore time to pack it in ..same with rahman who weighed 283 lbs for his last fight...fukin disgrace........hopefully boystov will finally fight sumbody with a pulse after dinga ling wilson...
The weight gain indicates Chagaev may have lost his desire to fight. The man is a natural cruiserweight, 242.5 is a ridiculous weight for him.. I'm looking forward to Boytsov's fight, though. If he remains healthy, this may be his year to make an impact in the HW division.
It baffles me how someone with Ruslan's extremely short HW stature and small frame can weigh that much anyway. And then you factor in the assumption he's actually trained for this fight. Incredible.
ding a ling wasn't even a good cruiserweight. joke fight again for boystov....dude needs to fight someone remotely decent.
[ame]http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QbS9lQ6vtlg&feature=player_embedded[/ame] he looks way to heavy, I agree, it looks like he's lost the desire to fight
Still packs thunder in that L hand though, and it was afterall Potvetkins size which won him the fight vs Chagaev. Maybe, this will be an aide to him as it was for Toney vs Peter.
And maybe it's a sign that the Hepatitus is in full remission. He looks a little more healthy now that's he's abit chubby. I'd favor him over Dimi or Boystov or even Fury ATM:deal
Chagaev has been around for years. I'd say hes ready to pack it in soon anyway. But on the upside Boystov could be ready for a real move this time..
He makes less than 5% (?) compared to Wlad fight.. 'WBA fighters' tend to stretch their careers too far without reasonable goal.
