Ruslan Chagaev Dumps Trainer, Eyes Comeback

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Former WBA heavyweight champion Ruslan Chagaev (25-1, 17KOs) announced over the weekend that he is making moves for his return to the ring and another title run. He dumped trainer Michael Timm of Germany and hired Magomed Sharburov of Russia. Chagaev wants to redeem himself after suffering the first loss of his career, a ninth round TKO loss to Wladimir Klitschko in June. [details]

A Strong, Eastern European Warrior. Look for him to come back against a weak-minded American (one the best the country has to offer no doubt) with the result being another Dominant KO victory for the Eastern Bloc.

It a good move, not because there's anything wrong with Timm, it's just that Ruslan needs a change right now.

It will be good to see Ruslan back. I hope he'll be fighting people other than the boring Valuev and Ruiz.

I haven't got a lot of confidence in Timm TBH. The strategy against Wlad was questionable at best.

Regardless I agree that it's wise of Chagaev to get some new impulses. With that being said I know nothing about his new trainer.

[El Angel]

Hopefully he comes back well from being totally schooled.

Schaburow is a good offensive minded trainer.Should make him at least more offensive and entertaining.

He also trains Golovkin.

[Bram]

Now if only he could dump about 25lbs and fight at cruiserweight, he'd be all good.

[''The Man'']

He should go to Tony Mundine Sr, that man is a great Trainer.

forget the wlad beating! He should have lost to drumond.he got a gift that night.he looked washed up before the wlad fight.he's done & never recovered from the Achilles injury & had way to much time off.he won't beat any of the top 25-30 heavyweights anymore.he has to start from scratch & fight some weaker guys to gain confidence or he's just going to keep getting beat.you heard it here 1st! The drumond fight was the beginning of the downward spiral!

It won't matter, the Klitties control the division, he can still bid for a always available WBA title though. He already showed he can beat Valuev and i think he beats the mouth as well.
