Both look to be in amazing shape. Should be interesting with Wlad preparing for an orthodox fighter for all that time. Chagaev's transition should be easy considering he was already preparing for an even taller opponent. Chag being a southpaw and Wlad possibly being deflated about the Haye fight falling through could make for an interesting fight.
Chagaev's legs look really weak compared to the rest of him. He's obviously not going to win any body building competitions, but he has big arms and is sort of thick, but then his legs taper down, and are proportionally smaller. Wlad is in down right scary shape, as usual.
Chagaev made a Valuev fight look entertaining. He will make it entertaining also. I remember the night of Chagaev-Valuev, after that fight I said to myself if there is anybody in the divison who has a chance against Wladimir, it's Chagaev. I will be rooting for a good fight, whoever wins.
This is how it should be for the most important heavyweight fight of recent times! The rest of the division should take note. Fighters like Chris Arreola should take note and reform!
