A Russian website (russiatoday.com) reports that Nik Valuev is considering a voluntry defence of his WBA heavyweight title, and that Kali Meehan is calling out Valuev and saying Valuev's chicken to face him. Kali reckons he'll knock Valuev out cold given the chance. May 30th is getting a mention. But whether Kali's actually in the running as the opponent is anyone's guess.
Is this why Meehan has been inactive, just waiting for a shot at Valuev? Meehan would give it a go I reckon, then again, there's probabaly quite a few who could give it to the big guy.
I think meehan could be very dangerous against valuev, and could probably outpoint him if he moved about
he deserves the shot but he might not get it, how ****ed is that? i kinda liked valuev to start with, but not anymore.
I can't see Meehan beating Valouev. If money is good, then Valouev should take this fight as a tuneup.
I just checked WBA rankings, looks like Meehan is #1 contender, but somehow Valouev might get a voluntary fight, but I understand purse bid is happening for Chagaev. Who knows? I guess we will find out.
I think King controls Meehan.. should the fight eventuate, Kail would only have to win 4 rounds to secure a points victory.
nice guys dont get far, time is running out for kali, i hope he gets his chance and turns into a real ***** by not fighting some of these so called protenders who will no doubt call him out if he wins...
Meehan is doomed man, he is already waiting for his WBA belt shot for a year and now Ruiz is put in front of him again. So, after the purse bid april 15th for Chagaev vs Valuev, there should be a june date for this fight, then Ruiz will get another chance, then maybe Meehan will get his, but, by the look of it, no sooner than 2010. Meehan should not be waiting and get himself the most lucrative fight available. Maybe a fight against Hoppa for the aussie belt or against Rogan for the Commonwealth belt. Maybe Cameron would be interested in a fight if he beats Tua.
