Re: Questions raised or answered about Valuev? Some answered...some raised for Wacko
While I still think Valuev lost to Ruiz I will give him some props on his accomplishments so far...For such a huge guy he seems to be in shape and his work output is excellent ...he has a little boxing ability and if he has a chin he will pose real problems for the current state of the division...

...he also lost to Larry Donald
Re: Questions raised or answered about Valuev? Some answered...some raised for W
I actually think most people regard him as quite a loveable giant really. More Bigfoot and the Hendersons than the evil giant in Jack and the Beanstalk. Bilbo
I think people view him as likable at the moment. I think they will turn on him if he starts to dominate.
Anyway, I like everything you've said on this topic, so have one on me

Valuev has fought in of THE punchers to date...but it's not like the men that he's fought haven't KO'd other fighters...I'm sure you know how it is Lyle...if you get caught by someone that can put their weight behind a punch, if you have a chinny chin...you will go down.
Donald (who he did not lose to) connected, Ruiz connected, Etienne connected, Noble connected, Vidoz connected, & Beck connected...he took their shots pretty well...again...it's easy to write a man off before he get's the shot at proving his merit.

He's already proven to be much better than Harrison at his worst & he's fought quite a few more world classers than Harrison also.

Many fighters take Vitali's shots for 8 rounds...we all know Vitali is an accumulative puncher. Let Williams try dealing with Valuev's power...but as I said before...you can watch Valuev & see that it is not only just the power...but the way that he uses his size & weight against you.

Haven't nailed it down for sure...but hey...if people can swallow McBride vs Tyson...surely you can have a stomach for Valuev McBride...right?
What's good for the goose...
