A lot of people prefer not to rank active champions, especially young ones who might have many more years left at the top, alongside the...
Which Chagaev fights should I watch to get a handle on how good this modern warrior truly was ? You seem to rate him highly. The best I ever saw...
Well, he didn't come in much lighter for Lewis. I wouldn't count on him being able to get into shape for Rahman.
