Is there a chance Wlad / Chagaev might NOT be for the WBA belt?

    Call me crazy but we all know the WBA are well known for their bull**** belt regulations and the fact that I wake up today to find them 'delaying' their decision over the Valuev/Chagaev cancellation.

    We all know how bad they WBA is and how they dance through mandatories to keep the belts out of the K Brother's contention. Are they going to pull some bull**** and not sanction this matchup for their belt - after all Don King was talking of suing at one point to make Valuev the WBA champ since Chagaev was 'medically unfit'.

    Anyone else fearing something like this?

    i think they should come through, but i have been saying I thought the IBO was one of the best alpha-titles, I just wish it would become more legit.

    I don't care about WBA... Vlad-Chagaev for the RING belt, the heavyweight championship of the world...

    This is the best possible fight right now so it is not important if it is for WBA or not.

    Knowing what the WBA are like, the winner of the Wlad V Chagaev bout will be the new 'WBA Super Champion', thus rendering Valuev it's 'Ordinary Champion'. Either way, who cares? It's gonna be for the lineal championship: The Ring Belt.

    Nothing would surprise me with the WBA.

    If they can find a way to extract more sanctioning fees then this is what they will do.
