Originally posted by flat1985 View PostPovetkin is better then Chagaev why would he do that?
Lost to Wlad on a fight he took on short notice because Haye ducked Klitschko, but at least had the stones to get in the ring with the champion.
Povetkin: best known for ducking Wlad for the last three years.
I'm not ready to write off Chagaev just because he didn't take an 8-rounder with Travis Walker as seriously as some would like.
Povetkin is a basket case, and not in Chagaev's league as a professional fighter to this point.

It's shameful, really, the smear campaign going on against him.

I hope he is just in denial about the Hepatitis B, because if he is really in good health then that means he was just completely shot and out of shape against Travis Walker. Walker very will might have had him out of there if it was a 10 or 12 rounder.
I understand that it is unfair to not give him the shot, but if he can't be allowed to fight in England then Povetkin would be a much gamer challenge for the title. Chagaev at the point is done and it would not be a competitive fight.
Chagaev is being smeared and blackballed, and it ain't right.

Either would be the most live opponent Haye has faced whether it be Povtekin or Chagaev.
Does anyone know why a decision has not been made as to who Haye is fighting in May?
