I watched it and it was one of the worst fights I've seen in recent times. Virchis played the bad equivalent to Valuev (yes, there actually are HWs even worse technically) and Chagaev was half a poor mans Samil Sam. Both are sparring partners and seeminly like each other. Maybe that affected the fight. However an outing like that shouldn't really be excuseable. Both of them seriously need to rethink their career plans if they keep performing like that.Comment
Got busy here at work so I'll watch it when I get home.
