    No fear is something they have in common. Browne just likes to fight and will fight anybody.

    Repeat of the Skelton fight but Chagaev older.

    Chagaev v Browne is a good fight but I predict that whoever wins the fight will probably lose the belt prior to getting a shot at the real title. Fantastic opportunity for Browne, but Chagaev will have to have declined considerably to lose this fight.

    Chagaev should watch tape of the Rudenko fight if he wants to win this.

    If he's unmotivated or tries fighting of the back foot, he'll be eating R hands and end up getting stopped.

    Gonna need to be taking it to the limited but dynamic Big Daddy.:think

    I hate to say it, but Hughie Fury did a better job against Rudenko then Browne did.
    Browne is an OK fighter, but I don't rate him world class. I also don't rate Chagaev very high either. If Oquendo woke up earlier he could have won that.
    Both are coming of a bad display.
    This fight is competitive, maybe Browne is the slight favourite.

    Browne can bang but he can't just blast out somebody like Chagaev & unless Chagaev comes in overweight & unmotivated he boxes Browne's ears off & wins a clear UD, possibly even a late stoppage.

    Chagaev is too old now. Prime Chagaev would have schooled the sloppy Browne. Maybe now Browne will win a decision. Chag is still hard to chop down.

    Something really aggravates me about Browne and I can't put my finger on it. Perhaps it's that I think he's a domestic level fighter masquerading as a genuine contender. Either way the sooner he gets taken out of the picture the better.

    Browne is an unspectacular fighter with a disturbing habit of getting the job done. This will be a stern test like no other he has faced so far.

    it would be silly to count Chagaev out here... However lazy, and unmotivated he is at this point.. He's still has more experience, and talent that Browne will ever have. Brownes fight Rudenko leads me to think that Chagaev would probably take this fairly convincingly regardless of how he shows up, sure Browne actually has a CHANCE now, but I don't have him as the favorite here. It's still a very winnable fight for Chaggy.

    I think Chagaev has every right to be considered the favourite here and wouldn't count him out for a minute. Let hope it provides for a memorable fight.

    Hughie Fury could probably beat Chaggy at this stage of his career.

    Against Tyson , he wouldn't be competitive.

    The title is an utter joke and even worse , two washed up cans with nothing left fought for it.
