    Chagaev would not last 12 rounds with Wladimir. IMO Chagaev lost to Virchis, and Wlad is better than Virchis in every aspect... except the chin.

    exactly. chagaev looked decent against valuev but from top notch. since then, he has been inactive and fought British bum Skelton. Thank goodness the WBA rejected Krasniqi as an opponent. You dont get better fighting cans. He is holding the belt hostage and wlad would knock his ass out.

    it wont matter though since valuev will be beat him in the rematch. Valuev-Wlad would be a huge unification fight but I doubt King will let the Giant get beat down by Wlad. Expect a Ruiz, Mccline, or Golota fight after Valuev disposes of the White Beachball.

    chagaev is one handed fighter. no way does wlad lose to a guy like that. he also has the dumbest alias in boxing. wlad tko 8. any news on your boy's weight? i will laugh my ass off if he is north of 250 :D

    Kobe is god- There are rumors he's going to come in a little over 250, If this is true, then the Mccline fight wasn't the wake up call I thought it was. I still believe he's going come in around 245, but I could be wrong. I'm telling you this right now, if he is over 250, he better gun for the knockout early, because if he doesnt, there's a good chance Maskaev out boxes him to a 12th round decision.

    I think it's tomorrow, but I might be wrong, I feel Peter is an overconfident fighter, which could be a good thing or a bad thing, depending on what you do with it. I am now convinced, Sam Peter buys into his own hype, and thinks he can knockout anyone, which may or may not be true, but he must come into the best shape possible, this is a Heavyweight title fight, not Robert Hawkins.:verysad

    No way can Chagaev-Wlad be worse on the eyes than Wald and Sultan.

    Can Chagaev win more rounds than Sultan?

    Probably, he is a more well rounded fighter and face it. You can't lose more than 12 rounds in a 12 round fight.

    I think Ruslin will a little less reluctant to mix, Ruslin takes a good shot, he is solid, I dont think he has ever been down as a pro...this will be another defensive fight unless Ruslin takes a few to land a few, if he fights that way he will get a chance to trade with Vlad, Sultan was at bay and stayed there
