Ruslan Chagaev vs. Enzo Maccarinelli: who would win?

[The Hammer]

This seems like a ridiculous question, but GreatJoe made a thread claiming Enzo Maccarinelli would defeat Ruslan Chagaev.

Maccarinelli has been KOed three times at cruiserweight. Chagaev has never been down...

Michael Sprott said he hit Chagaev with a similar punch he KOed Audley Harrison with, but Ruslan didn't even flinch.

Chagaev won Gold at super heavyweight in the 2001 World tournament in Belfast. He has wins over three Ring top ten heavyweights at the time: Virchis, Ruiz and Valuev.

As well, at age 18 in 1997, Chagaev defeated the great Felix Savon, and defeated him again in 1999.

Poll coming.

Here is your post from the other thread:

I'd pick Enzo (Pre-Haye) to beat Chagaev.
I really don't know what Enzo has left at this moment in time.

Now Tunney, stop talking ****, Chagaev is ****, stop trying to big him up because you know Wlad will beat him, thus making Wlad look better.

I highly dout a pre Enzo Maccarinelli would defeat Chagaev. The fight would have to take place at Heavyweight a division were Enzo really has no experience in.

Chagaev would have virtually all the advantages over Enzo, etc stronger, more skillfull, footwork, chin, stamina. Enzo is also not use to fighting southpaws, he hasnt fought many. And in Chagaev he would be dealing with a world class skilled one who won the 2001 world amature championships and holds wins over the ledendary Felix Savon.

Maybe Haye did take something out of Enzo, but even a pre Haye one, he was pretty limted. He whiskers have always been a weak spot, once knocked out by journyman Lee Swaby then 7-9-1. Enzo has also hit the canvas numerous times. He has also lacked stamina in some of his fights.

He was really tired at the end of the Wayne Braithwaite fight, and Braithwaite had took the fight on short notice, stamina also cost him in the Ola Afolabi fight were he was knocked out in 9.

I seem to think alot of people don't give Chagaev the full credit he deserves. He was a world class amature who like I said beat the legendary Felix Savon twice and was one of the most accomplished heavyweight amature heavyweights of all time.

In the Pro Ranks he has not yet tasted defeat in 26 bouts. He holds wins over world rated contenders and champions in Vladimir Virchis, John Ruiz, and Nikolay Valuev. He may have accomplished much more had it not been for injury.

Am not saying Chagaev is the next coming of the Heavyweight division, but he derserves more credit than he is getting and on his best day is elite, and to say Enzo Maccarinelli would defeat him, is pretty bogus to be honest.
