    LOL!!! Wouldn’t be surprised if Wach’s children were born covering up and looking around for a ref after those Hydrogen bombs he ate. Especially in that 8th round.

    Another one who I’m shocked didn’t have more damage was Chris Byrd. He ate some rockets over 19 rounds with Wlad. Byrd was actually the one that pretty much ended any speculation that Vitali and Wlad’s power were even close. He said Wlad hit “Five times harder”

    Valuev is a better win then a prime Chisora who Haye smashed in 5 something no one else has manged to do including Fury 3x times, Usyk, Whyte or Parker
    Valuev is easily one of the worse champions in history actually thinking about it I would say he is the worst unless you know someone even more atrocious

    Valuev is leagues batter than Chisora who never managed to win a title and lost every time he stepped up.

    Valuev should have lost the title to a shot to bits Holyfield if it wasn’t for a blatant robbery

    Please tell me who exactly did Valuev beat to make you think he’s better than Chisora winning an ABC belt doesnt make you a good fighter

    I remember watching that fight ... staying up late into the night my time to do it ... and remember the precariousness of his career at that time. Each knockdown was almost like the end of him as a fighter if he didn't come back from it.

    It's because he was only 27 years old when he fought Wlad. He had very fast recovery period. I don't think he can get up from that punch now.

    Yep Wlad was a devastating puncher I loved the lead left hook he KO’d Pulev with that was brutal.

    Valuev lost every time he stepped up too, against Chagaev and Haye. Also arguably lost against ancient versions of Holyfield, Larry Donald, and John Ruiz right at the ends of their careers.

    There's a strong case that he was no better than a prime Chisora, despite being frauded to a title.

    Valuev only lost to Haye and Chagaev both who are miles better then Del-Boy Valuev lost twice in 53 fights.

    That lead left hook of his was the punch I always thought would be the one to catch Lewis with.

    Best one I saw Wlad throw was the one he dropped Mercer with. That **** was out of nowhere and lightning quick.

    Conveniently ignoring my comment that he also lost to a bunch of octogenarians were it not for crooked scoring...
