I just don't see the greateness on his record that many seem to.. Look at Walcott and Charles record going into their fight's with Rocky, they had practically been beating the crap out of each other for 5 years prior to it, and both were 40ish, just ancient for a fighter in those days..
But Rocky never ducked anyone, Rocky fought everyone that was out there and Valuev has not fought ANYONE.

You cannot be blamed for your lack of competition when it's the best out there at the time....Valuev has guys he can fight Don King just steers him away from those guys
Valuev might be garbage, but he ain't stupid. If a C-level fighter like Larry Donald whipped his a** (he was robbed). He knows what would happen if he faced better fighters
but you cannot deny the fact that Valuev is learning as he goes....with every fight he is getting better...
