Comments Thread For: Chagaev Talks David Haye, Povetkin, WBA, Boxing Politics

[WladIsTheChamp]

Diva Hayefaker is too scared of Chagaev, Wlad took a hep b shot and fought him with no problems.

The situation around the WBA heavyweight championship remains uncertain as the next opponent of the reigning beltholder David Haye (25-1, 23 KOs) is still to be announced. Ruslan Chagaev (27-1-1, 17 KOs), who won the WBA eliminator over Australian Kali Meehan last year, is listed as the World Boxing Association's mandatory challenger, while rumors have it that undefeated Russian power hitter Alexander Povetkin (21-0, 15 KOs), ranked #2 by the WBA, can get the inside track to the champion. BoxingScene.com/Allboxing.ru contacted Chagaev to know more about his current feelings and thoughts in this exclusive conversation.

What EVERYONE is missing is the VITAL point in Chagaev's comments. He sounds completely CREDIBLE, with NOTHINGto hide, very refreshing and unlike the usual low-class bluster we get from both boxers and BozingScene posters.

His important comment is about the Hepatitis ANTIGEN which was discovered in his blood****** through a special checkup he underwent. He says it cannot be found in the normal blood tests. AND...... he states that he has NEVER had hepatitis, nor in 13 years of marriage, has either his child nor his wife had ANY SIGNS OF IT. AND....that he's boxed all over the world as indeed he has, and that NO one else has had any objections or trouble in fighting him. INCLUDING OUR SUPPOSEDLY COWARDLY KLITSCHKO. So what he's saying is that Haye is hiding behind what he hopes will be a negative turn down from the BBBC on the fight, ALTHOUGH this fight could take place ANYWHERE ELSE in the world. All it needs is for,Haye to come forward like a man (something he's not used to doing) and carrying on his supposed business of boxing like a boxer does. That is, to FIGHT HIS MANDATORY.

Some people might think that I'm naive in reacting as if i believe everythign that Chagaev has written, but, if ever a statement bore the hallmark of absolute thruth then HIS DOES. I have had much lifetime experience in assessing falsities, inaccuracies and inconsistencies in a multitude of "stories" mostly to do with legal affairs, and I thinbk that I can safely rely on that experience.

I'm not saying that I like or dislike Chagaev, I saw him fight only against Klitschko and wasn't impressed, I am dealing here with the truth ar falsity of his statement and Haye's position re same.

David Haye has already been vaccinated for Hep B.

The BBB of C requires that all UK boxers receive the vaccination.

Then this is all a moot point. Haye has virtually no chance of contracting the disease from Chagaev.

Maybe Haye is slipping some BBBoC members a few pounds to rule Chagaev out as he seems to be afraid of him.

[Money Shot]

Not sure what grounds the BBBoC can refuse to sanction this bout. Chagaev is the mandatory and there is nothing wrong with the guys health.

Yes, Chagaev is getting ****ed around horribly and mistreated.

He is a former WBA champion who handed Valuev his first ever loss and who looked a lot better doing it than Haye did against a lesser version of Valuev.

He also had the stones to fight Wlad when Haye was busy ducking, and the fact that he got beat is no mark against him, at least he lost to the very best.

Chaggy deserves more respect than he is getting.

a lesser version of valuev?

based on what? valuev was never that good to start with, the fact haye was more concerned with making him miss and look a sluggish fool than chagaev was in trying to press the fight is a style contrast

ure awfully biased

[paulf]

Chagaev.... Damn.

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.

the speculation in ur posts is laughable...maybe this...possibly that...

what do u actually know to be true? do u honestly think the BBBoC is a corrupted organization just because chagaev is voicing his frustrations? theyve been reviewing his medical status for 3 weeks now which if anything indicates theyre carefully considering his chances of fighting there

Not sure what grounds the BBBoC can refuse to sanction this bout. Chagaev is the mandatory and there is nothing wrong with the guys health.

thats because they cant...if chagaev can prove he's fully healthy there cant be any problems and it even gives chagaev rights to sue the WBA for bypassing his mandatory status...as angry as he is about all of this why hasnt he taken legal actions yet?

[dvb]

bbobc taking way too long,just make decision,or annouce the decision already.

must be sumit to do with haye not comitting to chagev or povetkin yet,still holding hope for a k bro earlier than the summer maybe?.

both povetkin and chageav are good names and good fighters on hayes record,but both havent looked so great in thier latest fights,though im sure both will be the toughest fights yet for haye at heavyweight,and both will up thier game for any title shot.

still haye v either klitshckos is the prefernce.

[flat1985]

My impression was that Chagaev didn't take the Walker fight too seriously. How excited is he going to get about an 8-rounder with Travis Walker?

Even so, he still showed very quick hands and a solid chin in that draw, both things that can trouble David Haye.

The fact that Haye seems to prefer Povetkin over Chagaev tells me that Haye believes Chaggy is tougher as well.

Povetkin also doesn't have Chagaev's accomplishments as a pro, not even close -- Chaggy has the championship experience that could help him in a fight with Haye.

As for the Hep B thing, all Haye has to do is take a vaccination and he has virtually no chance of contracting it from Chagaev.

Hahaha no way. Povetkin puts a clinc on against Chaggy
