Where is ruslan chagaev?

I've been wondering when some of these guys are coming back, or if. Couldn't tell ya.

 

Could care less

 

Gomez is coming back in March according to boxrec. There was word about Chagaev fighting Kali Meehan for an super interim title in recess, but nothing came of it.

I would be surprised to see Chagaev fight again for a while. He had all sorts of injuries and illnesses, he can't fight outside Germany because he has Hepatitis. Since he beat Valuev he hasn't fought often and looked poor when he did. I don't think his heart was in boxing. Same with Sultan Ibragimov.

 

juan carlos gomez will fight 27 march but no opponent yet!
if Yuriorkis Gamboa wins his next fight they will let him fight on that date aswell cause arena box promotion reched a deal with free tv Sat.1 to view their shows!

 

hopefully not fighting again, always knew that guy was a bum...he fought rob calloway twice for gods sake

 

atsch

Only because their first fight ended in a technical draw because Chagaev got cut, and Calloway was ranked at the time of the 2nd fight.

 

he was a good fighter but injuries and sickness have taken a lot out of him

 

Learn your boxing. Chagaev was close to knocking out Calloway in the first fight. Suddenly the fight was stopped for a cut. Than Chagaev fought Calloway again and let me tell you, it would not surprise me if Calloway is still sitting on that stool in the centre of the ring without getting up.

 

:roll:

At his best, he's the third greatest at the weight.

 

Ugh.

 

Funny thing is I was asking the same question for three years before he fought Klitschko.
If anything a good lay-off might do him some good, whether it's the recover from his injuries or to reconsider his place in the sport.

 

I for one am actually looking forward to a Gomez comeback. I think he can still do something worthwhile in this division if he is more active. This long layoff won't help anything though.

 

How about Chagaev vs. Gomez? :think

That's a high stakes match-up. Winner is back in the title picture, loser on the outside looking in.

 

Chagaev is working with a new trainer.
