So he will go fight the Chag russian guy in April.
Valuev the puncher ;D
The Beast man cometh.
McClines kneecap jumped out of it socket at the end of rnd 3 ...
He moved his leg in a strange way(twisty...) and then it did happend...
Don King said Aluev hit McCline so hard that his knee busted... ::** ::** ::** Total BS...
IMO McCline won the first and third rnd...
Bad luck I guess...
Yeah, it seems that McCline just had a big stroke of bad luck, and Valuev will go on one step closer to that 49 fight record. I hope he does start building up his opponents, because if he beats the best in the division, than it will be a boon to every heavyweight in the top 50. Nothing like a good freakshow to draw in the punters.

Johnny Kickass
I bet you Willie Gibbs jumped from his recliner and said "SEE! SEE! IT CAN HAPPEN!"
i have a question lests say valuev gets to 55-0 and he chooses to keep fighting doesnt that mean ifhe looses thatll mean nutin?
From the sounds of it Valuev was behind on the scorecards at the time of that freak accident.
Let McCline have a rematch and he can end Valuev.
(sound familiar to the Vitali fans after the Lennox Lewis fight) ;)
Just having a bit of fun :-*

Knee injury KOs McCline in round 3
By Karl Freitag
WBA heavyweight champion Nikolai Valuev (46-0, 34 KOs) retained his title with an unsatisfying third round stoppage of Jameel McCline (38-7-3, 23 KOs) Saturday night at St Jakobshalle in Basel, Switzerland. Action was slow in round one with neither fighter landing anything of consequence. Valuev connected with a good right hand in round two and outworked McCline most of that round. McCline started to have success with combinations in round three, but after a good two-way exchange at the end of the round, McCline's left knee gave out and he crashed to the deck. McCline could not continue and Valuev was declared the winner. McCline was taken from the ring on a stretcher. A disappointed Valuev commented, "I'm very sorry that Jameel had suffered this injury. Thank you to to all the fans who have supported me here." Co-promoter Don King observed "Valuev hit him so hard he broke his knee." Next on the agenda for 'The Russian Giant' is unbeaten mandatory challenger Ruslan Chagaev, probably in April.
I wish I could brag or boast or whatever after all my Valuev hype b4 this fight.....I can't....at least not when I'm sober..
This fight really proves nothing. Its like the McCline win over Grant.
A fluke win at best. One more W for Valuev that does nothing to make his record more respectable. Really a time waster ,other than it being a W for an older guy (33) who needs to get buzy if he want's to dominate this division and the media attention. Don King's comments probably do more harm than good. He should stick to making up new words. Maybe Gigantifantastic is in the works?
BUT! maybe this is what Valuev needs...Time. he wont need to heal up or rest. Back in the gym after a short break and continue to learn how to box and use his reach, size, power etc. He will have to maximize his obvious physical advantages to overcome his disagvantages in skill and agility if he hopes to take on and defeat the very best in the division and to defend against them all, for any length of time.
Thoughts?

nikolay one of the worst boxers of all time.
Big Nick does it again. ;D
Valuev wins in a shady fashion off TV....I would have NEVER guessed this would have happened!!!!!!
Especially when Don King is involved!
Props to McCline for showing us this ugly caveman is not perfect now only if he has the balls to fight Wladimir....which I'm not holding my breath for, I forsee MAYBE a fight with Chagaev but more than likely a fight vs James Toney or Evander Holyfield
To be fair Valuev won the first two rounds. McCline looked like he was shitting himself throughout the whole fight. He did catch Valuev with some great counters in the third round but he was always on the back foot, always in retreat.Quote:

He's still a bum. He didn't win mccline lost.
rocky would roll over in hs grave if he knew how close this joke is to beating his recordQuote:

I just got finished watching the fight and McCline had won the two of the three round with good combinations while Valuev was only throwing one at a time.It was shaping up to be a good fight but unfortunately McCline dislocated his knee! >:mad I feel bad for McCline for it to end this way.It goes on Valuev's record as a TKO.
Oh he knows his body was never recovered and he is undoubtedly training for a comeback on some random island.Quote:
