And it's a shame you're probably right. McCline is a doity bum. McCline should be clearing out the heavies based on how he looks, but he's so timid! I've never seen him throw a big shot with confidence and he gives opponents too much respect. Valuev is a carefully crafted creation meant to shock and awe with his size alone and not heart and ability. McCline doesn't deserve a title shot just like Barrett didn't. Valuev should be matching against Ray Austin, but a fighter with actual balls, Klitschko, is doing it. The only appeal to this fight is if the ring can hold up under all that weight. I hope McCline becomes uncharacteristic that night and tees off on Valuev's face. Then he should teabag him. But in all honesty, I think Valuev is going to scrape McCline's face off with that decent looking straight right hand and put that baby to bed. KO in 6.
