With the news coming down that WBO/IBF heavyweight champion Wladimir Klitschko is recovering from�shoulder surgery and probably unable to fight until 2010, his likely next opponent, WBO mandatory Eddie Chambers,��s going to ponder his options in 2009. Klitschko injured his left shoulder during June's win over Ruslan Chagaev. There were moves being made to have�Klitschko-Chambers take place in the December. That plan is now off.

BoxingScene.com spoke with Chambers' promoter Dan Goossen on Saturday. He plans to continue his discussions for the Klitschko�clash. Goossen still appears conifdent the fight can be made. For the moment, it's not clear if Chambers will wait until the spring for a fight with Klitschko -�or take an interim-fight in 2009 to stay busy. Chambers beat Alexander Dimitrenko in July to earn the shot.

The other person waiting in the wings is IBF mandatory Alexander Povetkin. Povetkin has been the mandatory since 2008. He was going to fight the Klitschko-Chambers winner. With the current situation, Povetkin's shot is also going to be pushed back.�

hmmmm. Haye got serious shit on here for pulling out of his fight with Wlad, there didn't seem to be much wrong with his shoulder after the Chagaev fight, he was waving his arms about and playing to the crowd like a dafty.

[quote=raycorey;5937754][B]Sooooooo now Wlad is injured???? lmao how ironic..I bet Haye is laughing right now[/B][/quote] Wlad got injured in a Ring belt heavyweight fight. Haye got injured (has he really?) during shadow boxing. Big difference.

[QUOTE=princemanspoper;5946599]eh? Wladimir fought three times in 2008 as for mmGAY,It's been proven that they attract the same demographic as pro wrestling,So it's pro wrestling that has suffered due to the rise of mmGAY[/QUOTE] Fair enough, but go back and check how many times he fought in 2...

[QUOTE=darkstar777;5946588]Chambers-Povetkin II needs to happen, why should Wladimir be forced to fight two mandatories, there should be only one. Now that Wladimir is injured (unfortunately) Chambers-Povetkin II needs to happen.[/QUOTE] I would actually like to see this fight! I think Chambe...
