Ruslan Chagaev vs Valdimir Virchis!!

[badblood]

On 3/11/06 these two unbeaten HW's go at it. Who wins this fight and does that put the winner in the top 10??

[badblood]

I say the winner moves into the top 10 in all 4 divisions after this fight.

[Nautilus]

I have read that Virchis was the benefactor of the "German" decision in his fight with Sprott, so I voted Chagaev.

I think the winner should be considered a top 10 contender and should get a shot at one of the titles.

[AREALFIGHTER]

This fight makes me a very happy man two prospect/contenders fighting one another fo a place in the divison the only thing is that virches cannot lose this fight he is almost 33 and only has 20 fights if he looses he does not have time to rise agian and i think that ruslan is the stronger fighter his skill is great he beat Savon twice and savon had mad skills and he was virches age or so when ruslan beat him twice and ruslan was younger and Savon is better than virches will ever be. I am really excited about ruslan. He needs to fight sultan next to show people that he is the next real contender of the old russian republics. His next 3 or 4 fights should be agienst guys like that he should fight laiokovic as soon as brewster beats him as well then he should fight demetrinko and then with those names he should have enough of a record to fight for a title as they are all top 30 fighters. But I really think that boytsov is going to be the one he is small but when have you ever seen a man that small hit that hard I have seen 3 of his fights he reminds me a little of cotto in his patience and his ability to cut off the ring and he is never out of possition when he throws punches. I do not belive that boytsov is hype he looks solid I would like to see him up agiest someone who is not afraid of him before I rally make up my mind about him. Ruslan will win this fight and by 07 if he can line up a fight agienst a top 15 he should get a shot by the end of 07

Maybe not a shot at a title, but a shot at a another top 10 guy or a top 5 guy.

There are many -- 4 titles -- so I say a shot at the title

Boystov should fight a live body first.

Boystov should fight a live body first.

thats what I said but you do get those feelings about a fighter and I have seen a bit of video on the guy and like I said he reminds me a little of cotto before the corley fight. Every one he has fought has been bigger than him as well of course tyson minus holyfield could say the same but not quite.

[TheEvilSaint]

well, this is an intresting fight, if i say so myself.

virchis is 5 years older, 3.5 inches taller and at 20-0 with 17 KOs.

chagaev on the other hand, is a southpaw, KOd the loud mouthed self absorbant rob calloway in 2 rounds, and is 19-0-1 with 16 KOs.

i'd have to say that chagaev might win this one, but i dont know. i'll probly jump on the bandwagon of whoever wins.

Boystov should fight a live body first.

i got my eye on boytsov. 12-0 with 12 KOs, tomrws his next fight, 8 KOs in the 1st.

everybody starts off fighting bums, boytsov is still in that stage of pro fighting.
