It would be the best fight for the division. I think Wlad could beat him by decision or late TKO and then he would hold two belts then maybe fight Rahman for all three. Valuev is probably a less risky fight for Wlad than Rahman with a greater reward. But than again two eastern fighters fighting for the heavyweight championship might be hard to put toghether. I dont know.
wlad would kayo him inside of 4 rds–would not be suprised to see valuev fall in the 1st
I really don’t think that valuev is that good. He has very very limited skills and does not punch with his weight. He paws and leans and shuffles and he wins fights though his sheer size.
Despite having a poor chin, Wlad can dish out punishment and is a decent fighter.
The Valuev freak show reaches the end of the road, and he disappears to Sequals, Italy, to become a professional wrestler and circus strongman. Oops that was his previous reincarnation.
Mismatch, noone cares about. At least I hope noone thinks this would be a competitive fight, anyone who pays to see it over there are really wasting their time. For gods sake Valuev couldn’t beat John Ruiz, even when Ruiz didn’t clinch much.. He was actually outboxed by freaking John Ruiz.. What do you think Wlad would do??
:jabbing:
I think Ruiz is a decent boxer, and would have beaten most of the guys out there if he would box them.
i think people are slightly underestimating Valeuv, if he dosen’t have great skill he certainly has size.
And imo, he may have the power to knock Wlad out…just depends if he can get through Wlad’s jab and right hand without being ko’d himself.
Interesting fight i see going the distance, Wlad wins UD
We will see a bungh of hugging and holding but with Valuev pushing Wlad around. Wlad should outbox him.
But thats bad news.
Because if Klit wins and becomes WBA and IBF champ.
Then if James Toney ever fought him and beat him then Wlad would keep his WBA Belt.
Yea sure, but same with Chris Byrd.. The point is Valuev wasn’t able to use his size to decisevly beat Ruiz.. I dont think anyone doubts Wlad would have hammered Johhny… And he would do the same to Valuev, but it could take a while. The guy has shown he has a chin, but that’s about it.
i cant see valuev getting up if he is dropped by a headshot, and im pretty sure wlad would rip him with straights, but i would imagine it would go to at least the 10th
I haven’t seen much Valuev, but from what I’ve seen Wlad would destroy him.
If he was able to stay up he’d be a bloody mess by the halfway point.
Mid round stoppage.
I can see it ending because of cuts to Valuev in the mid to late rounds.I would say Wladimir would KO him but Valuev has shown a very solid chin, but then again Mercer and Byrd had great chins.
I’ll go with Wlad on this one. But I see a very boring fight.
wlad will destroy him how will that be boring 8)
i dont think itll be boaring cuz i think wladdy will just go off on him with straights and itll take like 50 right hands to hurt the monster
I think it has to do with Valuev’s size, I would like to see him fall down to see if it looks like Andre the Giant when Hogan slammed him… maybe Wlad will get confused and go for a leg drop ;D
Who knows Sal, maybe you should photoshop a picture of Wladimer in Hogan’s shirt with “Wladimania” on it ![]()
i wish i could perform photoshop ussage ![]()
i suck at that shit
I figure the lumbering giant will hold on for dear life and eventually it will wear on Wlad to the point he will win the decision but not look good doing so. Just my thoughts.
Toney wont be Wlad
Too fat and small
It would be interesting fight but lets see first the next fights from both . . . We will get the right answer when we watch both next fight first and then comment for both ! ! !
But how i saw until now Wladimir would outbox Valuev easyly but i cant promise for a KO or UD right now . . .
