    Yeah I think Ruiz and Ottke are more disliked. Especially Ruiz.

    I think if the Wlad fight does come off and Wlad does not beat the crap out of Valuev, Wlad will be criticized for yet another boring and tentative fight. I think Wlad would only get credit for the fight if he either KOs or at least severely pummels Valuev and has him on the brink of a KO.

    Guys, I don't understand why you hate the guy. He is a _very_ nice and friendly guy outside the ring. He tries to make some money and I am convinced that he knows that he is a limited boxer. Someone called him a freak. The guy should be lucky for not being like him. The only thing that really surprises me is that Valuev has such a beautiful wife.

    :huh What's wrong with trying to win fights? Isn't that the point of boxing? If you're complaining about level of his opposition, that's hardly his fault. You can only fight what's put in front of you and for most of his career he was just seen as a sideshow who didn't get any meaningful fights. Since he signed with a powerful promoter in 2004 his opposition is fine.

    Ruiz deserved the nod in the first fight but it was no robbery, close fight.

    Exactly, though he tried to beat it fighting bartenders from Munich.

    exactly...the first fight was very close and Ruiz should've won, but Valuev won the second fight fair and square.

    Cux he was fighting only stiffs,bums,it would have been a shame to boxing if Valuev would have beaten Marciano's record beating guys like Beck and Etienne.

    With Valuev weighing 22 stone he's not going to run and move around the ring to avoid Tyson. Iron Mike also has a massive speed advantage, and Valuev was put down by Ruiz so his chin isn't exactly granite.

    Dempsey again had great speed and power and a bobbing weaving style making it difficult for Valuev to control him with his jab.

    Foreman would eventually land a bomb, I pick Ali to stop him aswell on accumaltion with his handspeed.

    I like him. Once in a while, it's nice to see a gigantic size mismatch in the heavyweight division.

    I wish he had more punching power though.
