  5. zzzZZZZ! jim watt doesn't half talk a load of­ rubbish don't get me wrong klitschko is a great­ champion if not a bit wooden but to say he just fought­ a worthy opponent is rubbish, 5 or so years ago these­ fighters would not even get a lookin it just goes to­ show how poor the heavyweights are at the moment,and­ there may have been 60,000 people there but it was zero­ atmosphere, lets get the hay v klitschko fight on the ­ heavyweight scene needs it more than ever...

  6. it is a pity! Chagaev lost! but he tried! Unfortunately­ he is not tall like Klichko! That why it was very­ difficult for him! Good Luck Klichko. But in my heart­ always Chagaev!

  7. When you see such a mismatch regardless of the fact­ that Chagaev is or was a "world" champion you­ can only wish for days gone by when the fighters fought­ with heart and determination. Klitschko just happens­ to be the best of a bad bunch. Bring on Russel Crowe­ (Gladiator)I
