    After his memorable win of the HW crown in Chechnya, what's next for Ruslan? Any rumors of next opponent, location of fight?

    If the best he can do is barely decision a 41 year old Oquendo, maybe he should retire, its not going to get any easier for him, if that's the best he's got.

    I think he faces the winner of the Ortiz-Kayode fight, who will fight for the WBA Interim title next month.

    Alexander Petkovic says, he will fight Chagaev next (In Grozny)... That would be the next boring propaganda for Kadyrow.

    Petkovic needed a corrupt ref to get the W against bloody Cisse Salif. He has no place in a world title fight. Not a single notable win on his record.

    He has the title that Ali held, before there were Super and Interim champions. So that makes him the only real heavyweight world champion of the world. The others are mere imposters :bart

    Lucas Browne says he wants the fight - probably a 5050 fight - If I were him I be looking at Chagaevs hep B tests very closely before signing anything though.

    Lucas Browne and his promoter Ricky Hatton are targeting a Chagaev fight.

    Who cares?

    The guy scraped by Fres Oquendo who arrived in the country a couple of days before the fight.
