    Honestly, I had no idea this fight was happening until now. I wish I knew where to watch it. This should be on ESPN. I would watch this. Whoa, correction: Universum will be showing a free live stream of this, if I'm not mistaken.

    Travis Walker's had a rough going of late. His egg's been cracked a few times now, KO'd by Jonathan Banks and then a bit of a war with Alex Leapai that he lost due to stoppage. That one could've been stopped earlier in favor of Walker, definitely a fight that deserves a rematch. We'll see...

    Anyway, it'll be interesting to see how Chagaev does and if he can get the KO against the chinny but game Walker. Chag's ranked #1 by the WBA, so people are talking about him fighting Haye. Problem is, Chagaev has hepatitis and has issues with getting a license outside of Germany. Do you think Haye would take a fight with a hepatitis carrier in Germany? I doubt it. SNV never rematched Chagaev for the same reason.

    I didn't know it was no until about half an hour again. It's pretty obvious who's going to win, that's why the fights happening.

    I don't see Haye fighting Chagaev. Somewhat high risk low reward. Chagaev is decent and poses a threat, which would likely be increased in his ever-fair hometown of Germany. The fight would be small, only an idiot or the most avid Haye fan would buy it, so it would not generate much money. And because of this, I don't think Haye will fight him. David's only interested in money ATM, and a fight with Chagaev does not offer much.

    I looked on the website and it says the Jack Culcay fight will be on some website for free, but it just says it's being televised on Sport1

    can you post a link to this stream on Universum if theres going to be one?

    They already started at sport1, just gave my mum a call because she can receive the channel with her cable provider.

    You´re right. Only the Culcay fight on bild.de.

    Charr, Boytsov and Chagaev on Sport 1 now, but no legal internet stream, I think.

    Walker is a decent enough opponent for Chagaev to stay busy with. He has some power and size but no chin. Chagaev should be able to ko Walker. Good to see Chagaev fighting often for him.

    Charr/Hawkins is on right now, not sure how many fights they're showing total, but probably another hour and a half, maybe two
