    Why May? because thast would be the perfect timeline to avoid Wlad wouldn't it?. If Wlad fights in Feb May would be the best bet to avoid him.

    This guy seems to be losing his fanbase, real quick. After suddenly taking ill and calling off the unification fight that they were so proud of, then announcing, immediately after Holy was put in there, that he (Chag) was OK and ready to resume training......now, announcing that he won't defend the WBA title til...............May...............seven MORE months, on top of the time he's already been out.......

    I think if a guy goes more than a year without defending there should be an interm title fight, this is B.S, the guy will have gone 13 monthes after winning his title and hasn't done ****!!

    Word is out that Bidenko will be Chagaev's next opponent.
    Chagaev flew back to Germany to attend a fight event with Bidenko watching Bidenko attentively throughout his entire bout with George Arias.

    Dimitrenko isnt ready to fight for a world title.He is scheduled to square off against huge German Timo Hoffman next week.
    Some British posters here claimed that Skeleton will meet Dimitrenko to fight for the vacant european title.

    Virchis is scheduled to fight Hawkins on the undercard of Dimitrenko vs Hoffman.He has relinquished his european belt.
    According to some rumour he may be Wladimir Klitschko's next opponent.
    Sultan Ibragimov vs Wladimir Klitschko isnt a done deal,and Virchis has been mentioned as one of the possible opponents for Wlad's next outing to a box ring.

    Bidenko isn't even in my Top30. :-(

    Can't belief he'll get a title shot. Virchis would be muuuuch better.

    Isn't the idea to make as much money as possible in any fight? If I were Chagaev's manager I would be trying to get him a fight with Klitschko. There isn't much point to holding a belt unless it generates some revenue.

    Ruslan Chagaev Update!

    Tuesday, October 30 2007

    WBA champ back in December or January

    WBA heavyweight champion Ruslan Chagaev (23-0-1, 17 KOs), who started the training after his illness in Uzbekistan, continues his preparations for his next fight now with coach Michael Timm here in Hamburg. "Probably his next fight will be in December or latest in January," said Universum Box-Promotion Head of Communications Christof Hawerkamp. "The place for this event is not fixed now, but there are options in Germany or in Uzbekistan. This and all other facts we'll announce asap on our normal communication ways."


    Sounds better.

    Yes, much better. :good

    I still have my doubts about him being too ill to fight Ibragimov, though.
