It ain't English but it basically says Valuev has agreed to the fight.

Gotta love google translate

Great news!

I knew Valuev and his handlers would come around. They can't make this much money fighting anybody else.

Always wanted to see Valuev againsed Vitali. I'm pretty excited about this now. What is the combined weight of these two massive bastards? Gotta be a record.

Will be strange to see Vitali looking up at the staredown

Yay, we'll see the giant mountain knocked out for the first time.

Are these the 2 biggest HW champs of all time?

Is Vitali obligated to fight Valuev?Why is this one happening,just seems a waist of time.Not like He's getting any younger and has kept a real active pace since comeback?

i think its a great fight. If he can knock valuev out , it would be a nice sight. I believe the record combined weight of the fighters in a championship fight is Valuev vs Mcline.

Yea I actually thought of that fight myself. McCline is huge, must be 260+ at least. There can't have been a greater combined weight between two guys in a significant HW fight than that one.

Other than this being a circus spectacle this fight is completely pointless.

I see Vitali walking through Valuev pretty easily, Vitali fights smart...I would have preferred to see Valuev vs Wlad as Wlad has had troubles against tall fighters...

Bingo.Like what Vitali does and how he does it...but Haye got shit for facing this arguably thrice beaten walking wooky rather than Vitali...well, and his brother.....why the difference with the reigning heavyweight champ?

Good find....I know everyone will call me crazy but I think this will be a better fight then most think...Here is why...

Vitali while still much smaller then Valuev is much much closer in size then anyone Valuev has ever fought....It is much easier to pin down an opponent closer to your size then chase a guy a foot shorter and 75lbs lighter then you....It is more or less like Rocky chasing the chicken...

Vitali is also not an overly fast HW so Valuev has the opp to use his Defense and not be killed by speed...(Though I am not sure Valuev even has defense skills)...Also this will allow Valuev to be able to land more since Vitali is not the most defensive fighter around and not too fast on his feet.....

Also this will be the first time Vitali has ever had to deal with someone bigger then him...Especially this much bigger....Even Wlad is smaller by a few inches....

I think Vitaly will win...We may possible see the Giant actually go down for the 10 count but....I think the fight will be more competitive then many think
