    Who do you think is the best Russian HW? Chagaev, Ibragimov, Maskaev , Povetkin, or Valuev?

    Povetkin and Boytsov. (but boytsov is too innactive so he doesn't count)

    I think Oleg Maskaev is the best of the bunch right now, but Sultan Ibragimov has the potential to be (too bad for him that he will lose to Holyfield in October):!: KO BABY!

    Right now Chag with a bullet. Though Povetkin may surpass him.

    Who told you that Chagaev is russian , you are wrong .
    If we looking strait only Povetkin, Maskaev and Valuev are real russians . Anothers like Ibragimov, Boytsov are with muslim religion and dont have nothing with russians. The former Soviet state changes names and surnames.

    Hard to say. Maskev is the most accomplished. Chagaev and Ibragimov are young and current undefeated champions. Povetkin has a world of potential.

    I think Vlauev is out of the conversation.

    Povektin would be my pick. Chagaev is a close second.

    Povetkin.. Too much skill and he's pretty fast for a HW

    Chagaev is Russian blood, why cant some understand that? Vitali was born in Kyrgyzstan, does he look a nomadic Asian? Vitali is Ukrainian!


    Your favorite fighter (to Artani), Luan Krasniqi was born in Germany. So, is Krasniqi not Albanian? I dont want to hear that **** again.
