Valuev Wants Chagaev Rematch as Soon as Possible

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

WBA heavyweight champion Nikolai Valuev is eager to fight "champion in recess" Ruslan Chagaev as soon as possible to finally clear the confusion surrounding the belts. After twice pulling out of a meeting with the Russian Giant, the Universum fighter had been named "champion in recess" last summer. Valuev went on to capture the vacant title by defeating John Ruiz in Berlin before making a successful defence against Evander Holyfield in December. Even though the WBA ordered Valuev to defend against Chagaev on the latterīs return from injury to determine the unified champion, Chagaev requested a special permit from the WBA to fight Carl Davis Drumond instead. The special permit was granted, and Chagaev won, leaving the WBA with a "champion" as well as a rather active "champion in recess". "Enough is enough," Valuev said. "All this confusion has to end. There is just one way to determine the true champion and that is by meeting in the ring. I want to show the boxing world that I am the true WBA heavyweight champion. And I want to avenge the only loss of my career. I want to take on Chagaev as soon as possible." [details]

I just hope Chagaev is healthy enough to decisively defeat Valuev.

[Davros?]

Chageav has looked bad since his win over Valuev, even so i still think he could prob edge out the missing link.

im sick of valuev chagaev and ruiz...

No

To heck with them both, the wba is the whole reason there is not a unified champion anyway. After Lewis beat Holyfield a 2nd time the wba ordered him to fight Holy again. So he gave up the title, it doesnt matter that the Klitschkos will never fight each other. If they werent around there still wouldnt be an undisputed champion, the wba has even made Ruiz the next mandatory. A fighter that belongs in the garbadge can.

Everybody is.

The WBA is the worst sanctioning body. They force Kessler to fight a bum in Haussler for the title. They make John Ruiz a mandatory again, even though he hasn't fought since his loss to Valuev...

The WBA haven't even updated their rankings since November, while the IBF and WBO have done so every month, four times since then.

The WBA are completely out of touch with what the fans want to see.
