Valuev has spoken of wanting to unify and has said he'd fight anyone...... Valuev has no fight lineuped up yet, and needs an opponent. No reason whatsoever to not take Vitali up on this offer. NONE. The only thing we have to fear is fear itself. Make that, King's fear of losing his last heavyweight title..... But Vitali has went public with this before Valuev has signed with Holy or GOlota, so maybe there is hope they'll see the money in this and take the Vitali fight. Here's hoping, but not holding my breath.
It's great this is happening, but I don't see this being an easy thing to happen. Valuev's people will put many obstacles up, hopefully an HBO fight date can change things.
I think eventually HBO will demand this fight. Valuev vs either Klitschko would be huge money in Europe. I think we will see this in early 2009 (around March or April) as there will be too much money involved for Valuev to pass it up.
Come on with all the gifts Valuev has gotten, they won't put him in there with either Klitschko. He'd get killed. I'd love to see Vitali knock that slow **** out though.
It appears wlad is fighting the Rachman in middle of Dec now so he's out but vitali would be a great fit. But i'm sure Valuev's handlers would rather him take on "the real deal" in a barnburner.
I don't believe Valuev will take the fight! Maybe Chagaev if he beats Valuev in rematch! Valuev will never dispute what his promoter wants! He will even fight Holyfield if Golota will lose to Austin or simply say he is not ready! I don't think Valuev cares about his legacy and he thinks that he is the champion and has nothing to prove! (I do believe in Germany/Russia he is considered as champ) Valuev is big name in Europe so Klitschko v Valuev would be batter for division then Chagaev fight!
It's a huge fight in America but it would be even bigger in Germany. I'd prefer to see Vitali get the fight than Wlad but I wouldn't say no to Wlad v Valuev either. If the Klits can come up with a big enough paypacket for Valuev then of course he will fight. Be very interesting to see either man in with someone considerably bigger than them.
Yes it would be interesting to see them fight with someone bigger then them! Remember Timo Hofmann fight? Vitali won almost every round but could not finish him off! and had some trouble! And with wlad there is always the chance one blow can change the fight! Either way I think both Klitschko's would win by UD! Or late tko!
Ultimate ******ed post of the planet. Holyfield cannot beat Valuev if his 46 year old life depended on it. atsch
Wow thanks for the nudity in the avatar..makes looking at these forums from work very very stupid. This isn't a porno forum, can you please stop.
You realise you can turn avatars off? I'm not changing mine just to suit someone who's getting paid while looking a boxing forum.
I think Valuev's people would rather him fight Wladimir, he has at least a puncher's chance in there and might be able to eek some rounds with his jab, very unlikely that would happen other than the first 3 rounds. Valuev is easy to hit.
