Vitali v Valuev......how do you see it going?

Vitali by KO in the middle rounds

 

Two of Wlad's best fights were against McCline, 6'5, 260, and Austin, 6'5, 245. Vitali won every round against 6'8 250 Hoffmann. Wlad's main advantages over almost all opponents are speed, skills, ring intelligence and power and size in many, but not all matchups. Vitali's advantages are reflexes, awkwardness, chin, toughness, ring intelligence.

Valuev looked like **** against Donald and Chagaev. Wlad dominated Chagaev, Vitali dominated Donald. Valuev doesn't use his size advantage well, much smaller and overall less capable fighters then either Klitschko beat him or were robbed against him. It would not be a difficult fight for either Klitschko.

 

imagine if both Valuev and Ruiz win

 

Vitali by late KO probably, otherwise UD. Valuev is too slow and unskilled and I think he´d eat too many heavy punches from Vitali.

 

Wolfgramm had 45 pounds on Wlad, in the Olympic finals he even had 110 pounds on him. Yet he didn't seem to appear the stronger man. Just because the Klits usually have a size advantage doesn't mean they can't handle a bigger opponent.

 

Awful post?

**** off you arrogant *****!

I have my opinion, you have yours.

It wouldnt be a huge shock if Vitali stops him but lets wait and see.

 

Maybe I was a bit harsh. Let's just say I strongly disagree...

 

I think Vitali could be the first person to stop Valuev, but I think he would be cautious at first and pick his punches for the first few rounds. As it went on though he would pile on the punches.

I dont think it would be a straight KO (even though if Valuev ever did leave his feet, how long would it take him to get up?) but I'd say it would get stopped.

We might hear then that Haye ruined Valuev.

 

You wouldn't happen top be a Brit? Only a Brit would suggest that a guy Haye barely beat would have a chance to beat Vitali.

 

This is a much easier fight for Vitali. He'll decision him.

 

Although Vitali is not what he was i still think he will KO Valuev easily,Valuev wobbled at Hayes only hard punch and that was with a broken hand,Vitali hits harder and more consistently than Haye who is a bit wild,Vitali by TKO or KO in round 6.

 

He wobbled him with a left hook, he broke his right hand

 

UD for Vitali in my opinion.

I dont think that he even has to 'risk' looking for the KO, just do what Haye and Holyfield did.

 

Good post.

Just another sad attempt by the haters to discredit the Klitschkos as if size is their only advantage.

Also, many Brits are just trying to big up Valuev to make Haye's win seem better.

I believe Kevin Johnson had the reach advantage and how'd that help him against Vitali? McCline, who was winning against Valuev when his knee gave out was plastered by Wladimir. Austin was KO'd by Wlad without WK even throwing a single right hand.

 

For the record:

Vitali by late TKO or wide decision


Wladimir by mid rounds KO
