Chagaev Statement on Ibragimov Cancellation

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Ruslan Chagaev becomes ill – World Cup title union battle against Ibragimov must be declined, unfortunately. World champion cannot compete in Moscow on October 13, 2007. [details]

This sounds Waaaaaaay to fishy to me.

I mean the news about Chagaev pulling out and Holyfield stepping in? Come on.. It happened way too fast.
These two are connected!

It's not like Chagaev pulled out and Ibragimov was stuck without an opponent, so among several candidates, they eyed Holyfield.
Year right! This was NOT the scenario.

WTF is that, no detail of his condition no nothing, **** that man..
Maybe Holyfield paid Chagaev lol

[DiegoFuego]

lol I called it. This is definitely fishy. Who wants to bet he's ok to fight somebody in November or December?

The translator was all confused on this one. Brooko could get a job if he wanted it.

If Chagaev faces KLITSCHKO, Ring #1 vs. #3, then we'll know what happened.

Team Ibragimov could have very easily called Wlad and ask Wlad if he was interested in a unification bout but Ibragimov's handlers opted for the over the hill has been known as Holyfield.

Good point, unless Chagaev was already making a fight with Wlad.

Beating Chagaev could make Wlad Ring champ, as the Ring policy states a 1 vs. 3 can in some case make for a championship

Its not like Chagaev was scared. What does he have to be afraid of? He already beat guys who are more decorated, and possibly more skilled than Sultan. If anything, it was money.

yet you say in another thread its up to wlad to fight chageav now? well,,,if chageav is ducking sultan who's not nearly as dangerous as wlad what makes you think he'd fight wlad? explain this for us. youve really buried yourself with that thread and these posts and lost all credibility you ever had ( if you ever had any)
