    Hmmm... Chagaev seems to be very good in all departments but with average power. He needs to get in better shape if he's going to fight Haye, because he needs to force Haye to fight at a faster pace.

    Good fight! Walker gave a great account of himself. I didn't score it properly, but I'd think 78-76 is fair.

    Chagaev very disappointed with his performance today in the post fight interview. Said it wasn´t his day, but he´ll work hard in the future to get his chance vs. Haye.

    WOW... IMO Haye KO's Chagaev in 4 if Chagaev shows up in the shape he is now... 20-30 lbs over and Sloooowwwww

    Wladimir and I were shocked at how big chagaev was since the last time we saw him for the wlad fight

    Haye should JUMP at the chance to fight Chagaev after what we all just saw

    Yes, Chagaev's weight was 6lbs heavier (231 vs 225)...but it looks like some muscle has been replaced by fat. So even though it's only 6lbs, in reality it's a lot worse than what it looks on paper.

    Nobody looks faded and out of shape on purpose. However, I don't see Haye fighting Chagaev. Valuev didn't have to rematch him because of Chag's hepatitis. If it worked for SNV, it'll work for Haye.

    Good scrap though. A faded Chagaev vs a game Travis Walker made for a good fight. I just wish it went twelve.

    Holy **** that was a pitiful showing by Chagaev. Really terrible. Past round 1 he was eating one right hand after another from Walker. His timing was completely off. Walker (the bigger, taller man) was completely dominating the infight game. Chagaev looked completely helpless at times. Shocking really.

    If Chagaev comes in this shape and mental mindset Haye will have an easy night. This won't go beyond 3-4 rounds. If Walker can land the occasional wide right swinging hand Haye can land his right at will without taking too much risk.

    Having said that it was certainly an entertaining brawl. Props to Walker, he came to win.

    Yeah, don´t see Chagaev-Haye happen.

    Sauerland avoided a rematch with Valuev and will avoid a fight with Haye in England, too. Don´t think, that Universum can win a purse bid to take the fight out of England.

    Totally. He is a totally different 231. Just like you said much less muscle which we all know is heavier then fat... so he is at least 15-20 over from what I saw on TV
