    Possibly. I see him doing it with body shots in all honesty. Valuev is actually the right size for Vitali to rip him to the body.

    Nick Valubum is a hulking powder-puff stiff for Christ Sakes....... The "K" bros. would eat him alive............... Why do you think Team Valuev looks the other way when the "K" boys wanna fight him??? Valubum is ugly as hell, but he ain't stupid........

    If he hits him enough, maybe.

    Valuev hasn't really faced heavy punchers. He's handled everything so far and that speaks of a good chin, and would suggest a very good one, but there's still a question about his durability under a consistant heavy attack.

    yeah either K bro can ko valuev. but i can also see valuev retiring between rounds as he has a pretty solid beard. but if the brothers tag him early in a round he's a goner. the fall might ko the judges from the air pressure effect caused by his body impacting the canvas. at the very least the first few rows of spectators will see bloodied noses and ears

    Yea, i think Vitali could do it before the 8th round.

    Lewis i imagine would of blasted him out in 2 rounds, et la Micheal Grant.

    Yes he can. Has anybody ever seen a picture of Valuev and Vitali standing next to each other? I would assume, the size difference isn't that big, since Vitali had a couple of inches on McCline and Valuev only a couple of inches more. I think we are talking about 3-4 inches, since Vitali 6'8ish and Valuev is probably less than seven feet.

    I'd love to see it - he possibly could but the question is how Valuev's chin will stand up to a guy with a heavy dig. I think WALD has a better chance of a late stoppage if he grew some balls and went on the attack.
