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
Chagaev is tough, durable, not overwhelming in power or speed but a very difficult fighter to beat as his record shows.

I just have my doubts about what Povetkin can do in this fight give that his fights after Eddie Chambers are against the likes of: Taurus Sykes, Jason Estrada, Leo Nolan, Javier Mora. Where is the tall lanky fighter on that list? Where is the power puncher? Where is the boxer/puncher? I don't think Povetkin is ready, I don't think Teddy Atlas, Freddy Roach, Cus D'Mato, Angelo Dundee, and Eddie Futch could help out Povetkin in this fight....he's going to get CRUSHED, an example will be made of him because he too had called out Wladimir in an obnoxious manner long before the Diva set foot in the ring with a heavyweight.
