    Clearly carrying too much fat but it didn't effect his performance. In truth he dominated and landed at will against a nothing opponent in fairness. A bit similar to his last fight against Manswell where he was unlucky not to get the KO after winning every round despite again carrying to much fat. He's not shot, his hand speed and reflexes are still there and I think Povetkin got somewhat lucky he fought him when he did. Chagaev looked very rusty in that fight. Despite being over weight he looks sharper now.

    I'm wondering if Vitali is considering him as a possible opponent for his next fight? Chagaev probably needs a fight like that in order to focus him and see him get himself in shape. Ideally I want to see Vitali fight Boystov next but this wouldn't be a bad choice if that isn't possible.

    yes, he would be a good opponent for vitali. he would do better than adamek. hes does look rejuvenated. i think that hepatits shite was killing his performances in the past. if he comes in better shape, 20 pounds less, he would give a good scrap to anyone in this division

    chagaev is done at A level. Boystov should be fighitng him soon I hope and get a UD and ruslan will retire or have some undercard fights.

    Chagaev for me hasnt had one impressive fight at HW. his style is kinda boring and just seems like he doesnt have any pop on his punches.

    he wouldnt do **** vs V Klit. he would get battered and quit on his stool.

    I'd like to see Chagaev vs. a WBC-ranked contender like Boytsov, with the winner fighting Vitali.

    Chagaev-Gomez would also be a good matchup and easy for UBP to make.

    Chagaev is past his prime, but I can see him as a great gatekeeper. Anyone that can beat him is top10.

    This. . . He's got very solid fundamental skills. . . Hits pretty hard. . . But just is a little past it. . .

    David Haye should of took pointers on how he fought Valuev. . . He straight took it to his ass!

    Chagaev vs Boystov would be a good fight to see where Boystov is at.
