He has grown into a decent sized Heavyweight like Muhammad Ali did after winning the LHW olympic Gold.
#1 Chagaev was in very good shape...he wasn't fat, he just wasn't chisled. I would say his body fat % was probably 8%-12% if that much. He was certainly in superb shape as compared to the likes of Sam Peter, Cris Arreola, and Eddie Chambers

#2 Lot's of guys have the size to be heavyweight champions but very few of them have the skill to accomplish such a feat
