I also agree that Don was in a bit of a bind with this fight because Valuev was going to lose to Vitali there is no doubt about that - and a second loss in a row, on the heels of what some people believe were gift decisions against John Ruiz and suddenly Valuev is completely valueless. If Don wants to keep banking money with Valuev he'll just throw some over matched has-beens into the ring with him in Germany and collect the gate.
Actually, would it only be to see Valuev getting floored and fighting somebody more or less his size, that would have worth it, especially in the optical that a lost would mean we for sure wouldn't see him in a rematch with Haye or Ruiz for another snoring fest in a close future.
