    Really, are you serious?

    Well OBVIOUSLY he would say no, so that he could keep it win or lose, correct?

    Didn't they already announce the fraud Valuev as the "super" champion?

    Yes.

    Actually he said if he wins it will be on the line and if he losses it won't.Seems smart IMO.

    They were supposed to decide two days ago.

    I didn't hear, either way, either.

    The WBA is the most prestigious title in boxing today.

    How could Valuev be a WBA Super Champion since he does not have any other belts?

    You are only a "Super" Champion when unified with other organizations.

    No it isn't. The fighters make the belts, not the other way around. Don't let those *******s forget it either.................

    Ruslan Chagaev already beat both thier "other" champion Valuev & thier #1 contender Ruiz, the 2 blokes fighting for their trashy belt. Nobody cares who wins that one because in the end the winner is Don King since he promotes both of those frauds.

    Both the WBA & the WBC are treading thin ice by having mandatory defenses against the likes of Maskaev & Ruiz, two shot fighters.

    Nikolai Valuev is THE UNDISPUTED CHAMPION OF THE WORLD and he will die like that.

    Ruiz is the no 1 contender.

    He will let Wlad fight for the rest of the fringe titles.

    Yeah, keep telling yourself that but it still won't be true.

    The guy Wlad is fighting is the WBA Champion whether they or you like it or not. Ruslan never lost the belt in the ring and he beat both their top guys so their belt becomes nothing.

    Chagaev doesn't have anything but a fringe title like Vitali was emeritus champ.

    Wlad is a paper champion,

    Valuev is the true UNDISPUTED HW CHAMPION OF THE WORLD.

    He can box,he can punch,he takes a good punch,he does it all.He schooled Holyfield ffs.

    He schooled Holyfield ffs? Wow, that might have meant something about 10 or 15 years ago...not anymore. Valuev is good, but he's not THAT good. And your quote "He can box" is a load of sh*t. He CAN'T box, that's why a guy like Chagaev who was quicker and smarter was able to hit him without getting hit. :roll:
