winner of chagaev vs povetkin has 90 days to defend vs rahman

[joe strong]

Boxingscene reported earlier today that Povetkin might face Evander Holyfield in December for the WBA reg title. Maybe the WBA will allow Povetkin to take a optional defense before his mandatory.

step aside money would more then likely be paid to rahman & a future title shot.it sounds more & more like its going to happen.

Povetkin is well on his way to becoming the biggest embarrassment to hold a belt (a "regular" title) in heavyweight boxing history if he defends against Evander Holyfield and Hasim Rahman in back-to-back fights.
