I really hope that whenever Valuev goes over the pond that he fights someone more impressive than Barrett, simply because, when he beats Barrett, Barrett will become the next Jeff Lacy, with everyone who said he was the business leaping from a moving bandwagon after finding out it's been set ablaze.
I think that if Valuev proves his pedigree, then it will be a good thing for the HW division, simply because his size and weight will make him someone that people fear and that people will want to see, and that kind of buzz around a HW fighter can only be a good thing, with the current medicrity and disinterest in the HW division.
