    We should be able to find a stream that day.

    I hope ESPN2 doesn't show it, unless they have someone other than Teddy Atlas do the analysis.
    I wouldnt care if espn picked this up cause thats what it will probably come down too, I want to watch this fight on my 52 inch

      it will be in the back of wlads mind that the american public wants to see an impressive win so I think he will be less cautious then usuall, I say Wlad by KO/tko within 7

        Well, I might watch it with the sound turned off.

        Too bad ESPN wouldn't get rid of Atlas.

            If it's any consolation, I highly doubt Atlas would do the commentary anyways, seeing that it is overseas.

            It will be hired guns like Al Bernstein and/or Colonel Bob Sheridan.

            I am all for a Saturday afternoon live event between Chagaev and Klitschko.

                Chagaev tends to fade late. Even Ruiz took a late round or two against him. I say Wlad heats him in the tenth or eleventh after a few competitive middle rounds.

                  Wlad should take it.

                  Considering Chagaev does have Hepatitis.

                    Chagaev's ill.

                    I really don't see the appeal of Wlad fighting him?

                    Why doesn't Wlad fight Valuev?

                      Only reason the fight isn't a disaster for fans of exciting heavyweight boxing is because it gets another belt to Wlad, so that he's a more clear-cut champion of the division.

                      Having an undisputed "man/brother of the man" will be nice...although someone will probably strip Wlad before he can defend his nearly undisputed status
