"What the Heck"?

[killersheep]

does anyone know anything about Owen "What the Heck" Beck?
I assume he will get creamed against Valuev, but I don't know
anything about the bloke.....

anyone?

Decent fighter.

Nothing great.

I wouldn't be surprised to see him put up a good fight & get robbed...but I also wouldn't be surprised if Valuev just creamed him.

He got his ass handed to him by Barrett & seemingly does get outclassed when he steps up.

The question is...is Valuev a step up?

quite literally a 10 1/2 inch step up

[El Kabong]

Beck can't take a punch....obviously....Valuev isn't a big puncher though...he's like Sam Peter, he hits people in the back of the head

[BoomBoom]

Well Valuev is at least a better version of Ray Austin who beat Beck. Thats why Valuev picked him

[El Kabong]

Valuev has NEVER fought a decent fighter....Ruiz and Donald aside (I thought that those guys beat him though)

Yeah, he's garbage. Made Monte Barrett like a future champion

[El Kabong]

Barrett isn't that bad, he's been inactive for too long though.

I think Monte could give Valuev a good hard fight

No he can't. Your right, Barrett isn't that bad. He can handle guys his size. Beck, Guinn, Mesi. But bigger, taller fighters (Klitschko, Lance Whitaker)? He's out of his league against them. Too much size for him. Valuev is garbage. But he's a big, tall pile of garbage.

[El Kabong]

Well Wlad knocked him down like 5 times before he was stopped....Barrett has heart and he's active int he ring (for the most part). I hated to see him give up vs Rahman...he knew damn well he could have outboxed him

Problem was they were good friends. Should of seen it coming when they were talking so highly of each other before the fight. I don't think not one negative thing was said before the fight. And Rahman is a talker

[El Kabong]

Yeah, I don't buy the whole "good friends" excuse. David Tua and Michael Moorer were good friends....did David see him as such when he wrecked him within the 1st round?

You aren't in the ring to play paddycakes, you're there to beat someone up so that you either KO them or win a decision....you aren't there thinking about FEELINGS

I'll tell you though he showed a remarkable chin against Barrett, I was watching that fight and saying HOLY SHITE!!!Barrett was winging some hard leather on him...Interesting fight

Than why did Barrett look so bad than? He was coming off good wins over Guinn and Beck if I remember correctly.
