Ex-Soviet Union Heavyweights Cancel Title Bout…

by Michael Sedor on May 6th, 2008

…and in other news a tree falls in the forest. You thought we’d have to wait until after the Ruslan Chagaev-Nikolai Valuev fight to make that joke! But no, ESPN reports that Uzbeki WBA heavyweight title holder Chagaev has pulled out his May 31 title bout rematch with the former WBA belt holder Primo Carnera, er, Toro Moreno, er Nikolai Valuev citing a severely sore throat. No, really.

We also sorry about the Valuev cracks. They’re unfair. The 7′1″ Russian Giant Valuev is much more accomplished than Carnera and much sturdier than most trees. He’s also alive and bound to find me. So if your seriously bummed by the fight cancellation news then play the below flash game which is from the www.beer.uz website which seems to be an Uzbeki portal that presumably discusses beer. The website is written Russian and Ukbek which both utilize the Cyrillic alphabet.

The direct link to the below game is here: http://www.beer.uz/game/331. So play here (click the green button), click over there, play there too, comment there in Russian or Uzbek, avenge the fantastically nicknamed Owen “What the Heck” Beck and knock out Valuev.
