    How can Evander win? I know size is not everything but this is ridiculous.

    As crazy as it sounds, I am going with Holy to win this.


    Call me a rebel, but I think Holy's being on another skill level, entirely, will show and he'll decision Valuev.

  7. Holy is about 6 foot Valuev is 7-1 so that looks about right.
    holy is gonna take a hard beating, if they carry his ass outta the ring or he gets hurt it's his own damn fault:-(

    Chagaev was able to beat Valuev, in what was a decent fight. Outboxed him and was able to get in and out without taking too many shots.

    Holyfield is damn old though. I dont know how he plans to win this. I'll still be cheering for him like always though

    Who is scared of the Big Bad Valuev?

    Holyfield should've retired way before Bush decided to run for reelection but he's such a class above today's heavyweight contenders that it's hard to count him out even against King Kong's little nephew here. :D

    It's not worth the risk of getting permanent bigtime hurt though.

    Valuev has said, himself, that he is just over 6 foot 11. 6 foot 11.1 to be exact.

    Holy is 6 foot 2.5, so I think Valuev must have some boots on in that photo, cause he's got more than 8.6 inches on Evander in that photo.

    yeah i can see holyfield winning a UD if he can simply get in and out like chagaev did... but the only problem is his age. i doubt he will be able to fight just a physical tiring fight and not get exhusted. if he gets exhusted it's lights out for him.

    valuev cant hit a moving target clean if his life depened on it, but if he has a stationary target in front of him then yes, he can put them away. remember his huge punch that ended the fight with barrett? he threw thata punch from halfway across the ring but the reason why it connected was simply because monte was absolutely exhusted.

    Valuev is not such a dangerous fighter, he's already been outboxed on a couple of occasions by guys the same size as Holy.

    No kidding. Can you imagine if he knew how to punch with that huge body and height behind him?
