    Unlikely. He could bring him to his knees or win on a stoppage but he isn't going to actually knock him out him, not with that 4 inch thick tank of a skull.

    Out of his 36 wins 35 are by KO so of course he can

    he goes down like primo carnera went down. holy and chagaev already laid down the blueprint, but valuev had never faced power punchers like both klits. it's a pity he doesn't turn into a raging ogre and uses his size and strength to squash his opponents. can anyone imagine an unintentional headbutt or this guy hitting you in the clinch? knocking a guy out in the clinch doesn't happen often but i remember one of the klits koing derrick jefferson with a short uppercut that way and the guy never got up. but if valuev wants to be a camaraderie than a real world champion than the hell with him

    Not without breaking his hand(s) on Valuev's head.

    either he or Wlad are probably the only 2 that could do it. And he won't fight either.

    In theory it's possible that any man can get KO'd. I think Valuev would be Vitali's biggest challenge as far as scoring the KO. If you can think of someone with a stronger chin then Valuev I'd like to hear it.

    They look like a pair of soviet era cosmonauts.

    They both make the 6 foot 6 McCline look like a kid. LOL

    Valuev would be VK's toughest one yet to KO. Him along with Peter.

    Michael Grant had a horrible chin. I have seen Valuev caught flush with wild hayemakers in some of his fights before he won a belt and he didn't even flinch. Some opponents complained after fighting Valuev how much their hands hurt. I believe the Klitschkos could force Valuev to quit, but I don't hink he will be KO'd like Michael Grant ever.

    Now that I think about it how many true power punchers has Valuev fought? :think

    Vitali would grind him down and either knock him out or make him quit.

    Neitehr would flat out KO him but Vitali could easily get a TKO/ref stopping things, and i'm pretty sure both Klits could make him quit.

    Haye I could see inflicting some horrific damage but waning in the later rounds, enough to take things to a decision. Especially seeing as Haye is no where near tall enough to carry his power up that high.
