    Bilbo you don't need Lesner all you need is George St. Pierre or even like a retired Sugar Ray Leonard or maybe even like Ali he shakes more than Valuev does anything in the ring.

    I'd actually love to see Marty Rogan get the call and beat him.

    Imagine that, a 37 year old Irish taxi driver who won a reality type show then went on to beat Audley Harrison wins the world title in his 12 th pro fight against Nikolay Vlauev.

    What a great story that would be, he didn't start boxing until 2004 and he really could pull it off too.

    would be funny, i think pac and floyd would have time to smoke a few sticks before valuevs punches get near. then they would easily duck underneath move away and smoke another one or two

    If the heavyweight had any brains, they'd charge in and kind of rugby muscle them into the corner and hold them there while they pounded them... They'd surely be able to take a few punches while rushing forward...

    But that's assuming heavyweights have brains...

    I don't know if any of you have played the rgp game Oblivion?

    Well fighting Valuev is just like fighting an ogre on that.

    You just circle around them wait for them to do their own attack, a wild club swing, move out of the way and then dart in and land a couple of blows and circle again.

    After a couple minutes of this their energy bar goes down to zero and they fall over and die.

    I reckon Manny could do it.

    Plus its hard to get them in the corner and pound them seeing as you cant hold them. All Valuev can do is try and get in range and then prod out his jab. If he was allowed to pin them up against a wall and squeeze them to death he could win (still have my doubts) but without being able to grab them I don't think it matters how big he is.

    He'd never land anything against them and if he got them to the ropes Manny would just duck through his legs, he'd be uncatchable.

    But it this way, how often have you gone toe to toe with a fly and lost?

    Without the aid of spray or a huge rolled up paper what are you going to do?

    Try and kill a fly with just your bare hands as it buzzes around your room.

    It's very frustrating indeed!

    True good point... I'm sure it would never eventuate, but even a a sparring session where Valuev agrees not to totally knock Manny's head off if he DOES catch him.. But it would surely be interested... I'd have the fight going for 12 rounds, unless the fight lets the heavyweight tackle the little guy into the corner and hold him there while he punches..
