ALEXANDER Povetkin of Russia defeated Ruslan Chagaev in Erfurt, Germany, by unanimous decision to claim the vacant WBA heavyweight title on Saturday.
The title was Wladimir Klitschko's following the Ukrainian's defeat of Londoner David Haye by unanimous decision in Hamburg last month, but was declared vacant when the WBA elevated Klitschko to "super champion" status. Povetkin, who was the 2004 Olympic heavyweight champion, remains undefeated after 22 fights (15 KOs), and becomes the mandatory challenger for Klitschko. Chagaev, of Uzbekistan, held the WBA title from 2007-09. His record fell to 27-2 (17 KOs), with one draw.
