    Hepititis B? Hepitits C? Joint inflamation? A bad flu? One blind Eye? A broken foot?

    All of these things?

    Bottom line: three cancelled fights in less than a year and 14 months without a mandatory.

    Though I consider myself a fan, Ruslan Chagaev has not lived up to what was expected of him in the pro ranks, maybe because of one or more medical conditions.

    He should vacate the belt, take a year off to get healthy/take medicinces/get surgery/heal etc.

    He would be an undefeated former champ with some excellent wins under his belt coming back, and can maybe challenge Peter or Klit in what would be better matches than anothe snoozefest with Valuev or Ruiz.

    The WBA should strip him, and mandate Haye vs Valuev for the title.

    I like Haye but let the man have a tune up first. Don't want to ruin a future champ by bringining him along too fast.
