I am not sure he is all that much better than Eddie Chambers and I kind of doubt he is better than Ruslan Chagaev, but old Rahman? He had best be better than that.

I just don't want any more excuses from Povetkin as to why he can't fight Wladimir or is not in top shape. They should have fought a year or two ago but Povetkin's injuries and Chicken Little's attention whore act have delayed this fight.

I really wouldn't mind Wlad-Sam Peter II, I think it would be a lot better than the first (one that I might add was huge for HBO's boxing ratings)

He beat Eddie in a close fight, but i got the impression that he evolved alot since then, with Teddy, Povetkin started to slip/duck punches more and work the angles a lil bit, Eddie is a defensive boxer and Povetkin bacame a better inside fighter, which is the style that Wlad doesn't like. Chagaev was never that good, really, he didn't impress me against Ruiz, he sucked against Skelton and was losing to Drumond till the headbutt

if Peter comes in at 225 pounds, then i would like to see that match too
