Wlad by late stoppage, but i could see chagaev trying to last the distance, an run the last four rounds, but i think for the first part of the fight, till wlad breaks him down, i see this as a good TACTICAL fight......Glad hayes pussied out, cause this will be the better fight
It will not be easy to KO Chagaev. He has never been down or even staggered. Very solid fighter, better than Haye, definitely the best fighter after KlitschKOs. However, KlitschKOs has proven that they could succeed when others fail.
Chagaev is hardly a hypejob, don't you think? He hasn't has that many fans on ESB at least. He is a good fighter, granite chin, big heart without fear, but does not have the fine technique Wlad has. Wlad will win this by UD. And indeed Chagaev is better than anyone Wlad has faced after Peter (talking about a hypejob...)
Chagaev is not that popular basically because of his origin and background but it does not make him less of a fighter.
