    He wasn't able to KO Fury, who sorry, nowhere is proved that does have better chin than Valuev and Valuev is huge bloke if compare with Fury who never was down in pro ring for a count not alone finished.
    Valuev was approx 320 lbs 7 ft elephant with very huge frame not some Butterbean version.

    Yes. Ppl loves to remember last 2 Valuev's fights, nothing more.
    Sorry, Haye most likely had more 1 punch power than Whyte best versions and Whyte is athletic HW elephant.
    Also Haye had over the hill out of shape slowest ever Valuev version in the ring.
    Haye is considerably smaller target than Wilder and appeared that then was more mobile than Wilder too.
    Haye did had 2 hands for power punches unlike Wilder.

    Haye still had won cos _________ Valuev really was not able to land on him anything significant. Very slow version from already very slow boxer.
    So yeah, no one could score this fight for Valuev. If U land almost nothing during 12 rounds on opponent, U usually will get L on cards.

    Wilder is superior in nobodies beating and landing power punches with his power hand.
    In all other departments he is inferior not only vs prime Valuev, also vs Haye and even Bellew.

    Fury is far tougher than Valuev and would have stopped him very quickly.

    Valuev had bad body mechanics so couldn`t punch hard, the first guy on this vid stood in front of him and beat him:

    AJ is one of the most powerful heavyweights in history.

    So you actually want the 2nd worst. I honestly feel like not being able to pick Martin is a forum post **** blocking.
    I'm gonna step over you.
    I walk the earth like a god.

    There is nothing in history proving your theory.
    Pretty opposite: Valuev never had been dropped. While Fury had been dropped by Cunningham.

    Ofc mobile boxers might outpoint giant Valuev, why not.
    While about KO?
    I already had posted here that I think : prime shape Vitali and Wlad had won vs Valuev by UD not via KO.
    Unless via cuts. I had posted this months ago.

    Valuev never faced a puncher, he survived v Haye because Haye was running all over the place whereas Wilder had the reach to just walked forward and blast Valuev.

    Stop overrate AJ. He fought against only a few opponents with good chin and couldn't KO any of them.
    These are Parker, 2xRuiz, Usyk, Breazeale. He couldn't KO Parker, 2xRuiz and Usyk. He landed millions of punches but barely TKOed Breazeale.

    AJ has hard punches but overrated punches. I never said AJ has feather punches.

    Look at the WBA Champions over the last 30 Years.

    Who were their worst champions with at least 1 defence?

    Bruce Seldon
    Ruslan Chagaev
    John Ruiz
    Nikolai Valuev

    My vote is for Chagaev

    Chris Byrd defended his IBF title 4x.
    FAR TOO MANY TO NAME:
    Chris Byrd, Ruslan Chagaev, Oleg Maskaev, Nikolai Valuev, Lamon Brewster, John Ruiz, Henry Akinwande, Francesco Damiani

    Worst ever is Charles Martin and you can’t say we can’t say him because 90% of the people when they read the thread title thought of him.
