    Damn, I was looking forward to it but German TV channel ZDF has confirmed that WBA heavyweight champion Ruslan Chagaev suffered a torn achilles tendon - as it look likes, he won't be able to fight for nearly a year.

    So is Valuev going to fight for the vacant title in some months or will the WBA just wait for Chagaev to get healthy?

    They should strip Chagaev now. Getting beyond a joke.

    Chagaev has been a joke as a beltholder.

    Please take the belt from Chagaev now, he is embarrassing the sport with his year long layoffs and Matt Skelton defences. I know for some ridiculous reason it is not possible, but Wlad should be able to fight Valuev for the vacant belt.

    Chagaev should give up the title , its wasted on him , and part of the HW division problem.

    Yeah, this is getting ridiculous. Is Chagaev the illegitimate offspring of Vitali or something? He's a china doll.

    He should changed his name to sick note. May be him and Darren Anderton are related..

    This guy just can't stay healthy. At least Sasquatch was active when he was champion

    Chagaevs just like Vitali, getting hurt or sick just days before fights, he is a terrible belt holder, it's no wonder why the average fight fan could give a **** less about the heavyweight division, it's the worst I ever seen it.

    Is this not the second delay over an injury already?

    I dont think its legit..
    Chagaev and his mangement knows he is in trouble against a rejuvenated valuev.

    They make up a phony injury, vitali style and gets stripped, that way avoids valuev and instead goes after wlad his belt and his china chin...

    I hope valuev gets to fight for the vacant belt, chagaev has been a disgrace as beltholder.
