    When he was another guy who was unable to land a title shot.

    Let's take the version that spanked Ross Purritty's hide for 12 rounds and had plenty left in the tank in the 12th?

    This can't be Herol. He didn't mention "kliturds", "kbros" or "k2". Must be the first post I have read of his in weeks that doesn't have some sort of Klitschko related slant to it.

    So 3 years either side of ko losses beating a journeyman on points. This is the prime version?

    Beating Purrity on points doesn't translate to beating Valuev on points. Not the Valuev who spanked Lyakhovic anyways.

    I'm sticking with my pick. Valuev late stoppage.

    I agree.. Valuev has a skull built like a boulder and you can even see it. That and its very difficult to hit a man like that flush in the head with any regularity.. Working the body might prove useful but, you're also hitting more than 300 lbs of flesh, a good portion of which is muscle. I can see lots of guys winning decisions over him, but very few forcing a stoppage.

    Beating the snot out of the actual fighter he is being compared to in sparring, carries some weight with me, however.

    a points victory is never beating the snot out of someone.


    except when its a vain attempt to prove kliturdology.

    Sanders TKO. Valuev too slow and not good enough on defense.

    Fact, Valuev backed out of a chance to Fight Vitali in a title match.

    You're such a loser on this topic.

    Khan apparently used to beat up Pac in sparring but I'd never favour him in a fight.

    There we go. Your Klitschko obsession wins again! :rofl It's like there's a little nutter driving you by remote control via a cable jammed up your ass.
