    Hopkins at about 195.

    Valuev at his standard weight.

    Who wins and how?

    Hopkins boxes and moves, winning a decision.

    Wide UD for Hopkins. I mean let's get real. Valuev won't even come close to a foot of Hopkins with his right hands and with Hopkin's movement, it will be a total mismatch.

    Valuev would not be able to hit him. Bhop wins by UD, all 12 rounds, though gets a draw in Germany.

    What are the odds of that happening? Fast handed guys like Calzaghe and Taylor barely landed a couple of flush shots. Hopkins would see his punches coming from a mile away.

    True, but with Valuev's size, it's possible he finds the mark flush if Hopkins gets out of position.

    The thing is, though, Hopkins might be able to take a Valuev shot. At least a single power shot here and there, as I doubt Valuev would be able to land any combinations.

    This would be a freak show.

    Wouldn't be any more of a freak show than when Holyfield fought Valuev.
