Mesi has turned down JD Chapman and Chauncy Welliver has stepped in to fight the undefeated Chapman on Stacy Goodson's HW slug out card on Sept. Welliver has been begging for this fight for 2 years and he finally gets it, good luck Chauncy, your going to need it. :boxing:
Chapman was a green pro with no experiance, he has been training with some great trainers and sparing with some talented HW's. Chapman is green no doubt, but millionaire Scott Hirsch has invested a lot of money and time into him so I expect he will turn out to be a good fighter. He has all the makings of a solid HW, he is tall, big, good reach, solid chin. He just needs time to put it all together.
Sounds like a poor man's Michael Grant.
Grant had great athletic talent & size, but because of the fact that he was so new to the game....he had no instincts, & had nothing when things fell apart.
This guy will be worse.

Joe Mesi was a media creation, truthfully. He was a nice fighter, at best.
&, as for JD Chapman.......who gives a flying f*ck about his mediocre ass ?
i wouldnt say i give a flying fuck about chapman, but to be honest ive heard so much bullshit about him, and he has looked so sorry in the fights i have seen that i now have a vested interest in making sure im watching when he gets knocked the fuck out. hes the kinda fighter that makes me think i can put on some gloves and go pro.

But he was ruined by Jirov, a cruiserweight who has since failed miserably at heavyweight.
What Mesi does from here in is only noteworthy because of the very real dangers he faces.

ive seen chapman, im not sure if he is any good yet. mesi should def have a few more fights before jumping in with an undefeated guy with 20 or more fights
Chapman would beat Mesi down if they fought in Sept and Mesi knows it.
give mesi time to come back, he was not allowed to even train or spar for 2 years. give him some more time.
I was just surprised that he even considered fighting Chapman at this point, of course he needs more time.

shit i wouldnt fight him either if i suffered from bleeding in the brain
Stacy Goodson is so pissed off right now that JD has to face Welliver. Mesi would have sold his show out and now he has to put his bread and butter fighter Chapman in with a unknown but dangerous Chauncy Welliver.
good decision by mesi, he isnt ready to fight any real fighters at this point and if last friday night fights is an indaction of thing to come he may never be!
