Of course I'm gonna watch,there aren't that much chances to see a fight live on tv
in Germany...,so even if Valuev isn't the most exciting boxer to watch, he is still
HW champ...
I will let you know how it turns out... ;)
He's a title holder. Not champQuote:

If Beck can't take Monte Barrett's punches, chances are he can't take Valuev's either...it's in Germany so Valuev is going to get the benefit of the doubt just like he did vs Ruiz and Donald.
How the hell does Owen Beck of all people get a fucking title shot? I guess he's not Ruiz or James Toney or Andrew Golota so it's someone thinking outside the box but in the wrong way.
.....makes me wonder if someone like Briggs, Mesi, or dare I say Holyfield will get shots at the big guy next. I would think Mesi or Briggs could beat him too
What time is it on? UK please, I may do a RBR if no-one else is doing it.
Big diffrenceQuote:

Much love to ya if you are doing a RBR, despite all the downers on Valuev, he does hold one of the big four, so I still want to know how it turns out, and whether the big man can complete his first defence.
There's always going to be doubters and people who say he's just there because of his size and overwhelming strength, and that may be true, but it's up to him to put down everyone put in front of him, and there's not much more he can do.
Oh yeah, and a £20 note to the first interviewer who asks him 'How's the weather up there?'
I hope Valuev is a champ for many years to come. I want to use him to threaten my children ;D
I would have thought that heavyweights would be lining up to take his belt off him. He's big, slow and one dimensional. A quality fighter should have little trouble.
Beck WILL get caught. He aint solved the problem of pulling away with his hands down he can't fix it or he chooses not to, even worse when he pulls away he has his chin in the air, if Valuev doesn't KO him off of that then he has no business being champ!!!! ;D
This is like sleeping with the fat girl in school & never wanting anyone to find out...
but...
YOU! MY FELLOW FORUM MEMBERS!!! I shall no longer hide my thoughts!!!!!
I want Valuev to come to American & just see that fwocker walk into the stadium.
I want it to happen.
Now whether or not you also feel that that statement is like the one involving sleeping with the fat girl in school & never wanting anyone to find out...that lies in you & your honesty.
Ahhhhhhhhhhhhhhh come on...you know you wanna see him fight somebody legit & just shock the world by destroying him?!?!?! How can you not love a freak of nature?!?!?!
***Note to fellow forum members...Wacko is hammered...ignore all that I have said. ;D
Or don't...the choice is yours. ;DQuote:

Agreed it is probably best to be drunk enough to have a very hazy memory, but at least you're doing something good for the more unfortunate people of the world.
And Valuev is a fooking whale!

Thank you
What excitment?
I aint never heard of Owen Beck, this is going to be a snoozefest
I don't think it's on in the UK, at least I haven't found it yet. I'm awaiting the RBR that one of the other guys is going to do. Not quite like being there, but cheaper than PPV!
What if Beck wins? Do pigs fly?
If Beck wins then Holyfield has a chance to be Heavyweight champion of the world ;D
;D And my first cc to you StarrQuote:

I know Valuev gets trash talked an awful lot but to be honest I've never once seen the guy fight and I expect only a few of you on here will have either.
He probably is crap, but I'm looking forward to the fight just to see for myself.
Personally I'm hoping he is pretty good.
I'd love it if he fought pasty boy Wlad and beat him at his own game, using his height and reach, flicking out his 8 foot long arms into Wlads face, and clinching the life out of him when Wlad gets inside.
Wlad should beat Nikolai. He seems a genuinely likable guy. I'd like to see him unify the division. But I don't see him beating a half decent boxer like Wladimir.
"half decent boxer like Wladimir"??? ??? wlad is much better than half decent to say the least...Quote:

great boxer? maybe not. competition weak? yes. but wlad has become a very skilled fighter. tall , fast , power, accurate... (i still think Vit. was/is better)Quote:

The problem is, why would any of the other titlists fight Klitschko unless the money is career-making or their coaches are so misguided to build them up too much?Quote:

And that's my tuppence-worth
Wlad-Valuev would shut down all of Germany!!!
Oh the money is there it's if Don King will be willing to let his giant get hammered into the canvas and be shown as a fraud to the world!!!
that would be the shi@!!! as soon as that fight is on im buying tickets(both fight and flight)!!!Quote:
