    I think Povetkin or Chambers would be too big a step up for Boytsov at this point. IMO a fight against Dimitrenko, or Sosnowski, or even Arreola, guys a level below Chambers and Povetkin, would be good. Or he could also fight Pulev or Helenius, since those guys are pretty big prospects too. It's too bad most HWs feast on bums instead of fighting guys on their level and learning from it, I know why they do it, because most people seem to write you off after a loss nowadays unless you're already an established name, but it's bad for the division.
    you are right on the money with your thoughts...a guy loses a fight or 2 hes a bum,overrated,etc...dimitrenko loses 1 fight & everyone jumped off his wagon.i remember how many people said he was the next one.i stated several times lets see what happens when he steps up.he lost but its not over for him yet.hes got sosnowski soon & they are evenly matched & on the same level.boytsov is now in the same boat as dimitrenko.hasnt fought anyone other then maddalone & gavern.hes on the same level as a neven pajkic.what i mean by that is hes beating all the solid journeymen but hasnt stepped up to the B level fighters yet....nice post by the way...

      I wouldn't mind a rematch with Povetkin, if Povs isn't pussy enough to decline. My guess is he would be given that he knows he would most likely lose. It's interesting to see the career paths each fighter took after that fight, with the winner in Povetkin regressing to bum-beater level, and Chambers going on to beat Peter, Dimitrenko, and challenging Wlad to the World Title. Shows that a loss doesn't automatically signal the end of your career.

      Other than that, a fight with Adamek or Boytsov might be interesting to watch as well. Adamek because he's almost always in a good fight, and Boytsov so we can know where Denis stands as regards his skill level. Even someone like Chagaev might make a good fight, providing the Travis Walker performance was an anomaly like I hope it was. My guess though is that Chambers is going to take things slowly, fight a string of semi-decent opponents to rebuild his confidence before going after the big dogs again.

      Oh, and lol at the bold.
