    I don't see Willard's uppercut being of much value in this one. The judges will probably fall asleep, but if the fight is held in Russia, they will wake up at the final bell and give it to Valuev. If the fight is held in America, they will wake up and give it to Willard. It is hard to imagine this being anything more than a snoozer.

    Unless this is one of those marathon fights, in which case Willard outlasts him, I take Valuev to clinch and maul to a decision.

    You know exactly what I mean.

    Alot of people in here are very knowledgeable I won't deny that, but there is also a general concensus that all past champions are better, wich I feel most in here just follow like lemmings because they expect it to be expected.

    The poll here says it all, I know full and well Valuev isn't the greatest, but is really Willard? has he ever been considered even good? would anyone pick him to beat any other heavyweight champ in history? given of course that they are in their prime.
