Valuev continues to improve with each fight...I think Valuev gets rid of Barret well before the final bell...Barret doesn't have the power to keep Valuev back.....and that's a big back...
Bigaru: I agree totally; can Barrett outbox him? Probably, but the Russian is just too big and strong. Why do so many resent that aspect of Valuev? Those devastating uppercuts keep improving, Bigaru, don't they? That lamp post left keeps the smaller man at bay. Just watch! NOW I know, the resentment comes from the fact that his IQ is much higher than the majority of heavyweights. + PAX.
