Interesting news in the heavyweight division...

[Fox McCloud]

The heavyweights are one division where it is pretty clear that there is a guy above the rest, but he doesn't have The Ring belt.

Anyways, #1 has to beat #2, which is Samuel Peter, or in some cases #1 can beat #3 to become The Ring champ. I think this would be one of those cases.

Anyways, in the last edition of The Ring's rankings, Ruslan Chagaev jumped Oleg Maskaev to become the new #3.

So now Klitschko vs. Chagaev could do it in the future.

He still won't fight one of the top 3 guys. he'll be fighting Povetkin or Chambers next.

[The Hammer]

Wlad has always been willing to unify. His only taker so far has been Sultan. Peter and Maskaev are busy for the time being with each other.

[!!Captain]

Chagaev will have to fight the winner of Valuev/Lyakhovich next, WBC belt is a mess with 5 people in line for it, so we won't see the Ring champion this year, I'm afraid.

****ty...

Well at least Klitschko-Ibragimov takes one beltholder out the equation.

finally they fix that. chagaev is obviously a top 3 if not top 2. but klitchsko isn't gonna be fighting him next cuz he has to fight the winner of povetkin-chambers first.

why do you think klitschko would fight povetkin/chambers instead of any of the other names mentioned, just curious?

Povetkin/Chambers is the finals of the IBF eliminator tournament.

It started with 4 people...

Povetkin vs. Byrd
Chambers vs. Brock

Winners fight each other tonight.

Winner of that gets Klitschko next, because they will be the IBF mandatory.

[Silencers]

He'll fight the winner of Povetkin vs Chambers then maybe the winner of Peter vs Maskaev if Vitali doesn't come back.
