    I thought Ruiz on paper was a good win at the time

    Holyfield and Donald lost to judges, not to Valuev (some include also Ruiz there). There is not much to choose after that... McCline got injured, Lyak was just one-fight wonder... by elimination it has to be Barrett.

    He ****ed McCline up so badly it made his knee explode. Truly bone crushing power.

    The way he man handled Barrett was impressive considering how he want on to draw and beat Tua in two thrilling fights

    His most impressive performance was vs Liakhovich or Barrett but Holyfield and Ruiz are the biggest names on his record. The Haye fight was close too.

    in the first fight, Valuev wins the WBA title, in the second fight he becomes 2-time world champ, so my pick is Ruiz

    Valuev is actually 7'3 tall. He cuts weight from 365 lbs. Valuev has the strength of two average cruiserweights.

    Actually Valuev is 8' tall and cuts down to 7'3" for fights.

    It's arguable. Clearly the Ruiz and Holyfield scalps are the biggest names, but I reckon Lyahkovich and McCline were his best wins. Mind you, neither fighter was the same after. Valuev hit McCline so ****ing hard in the face that his elbow imploded. It was terrible, terrible. Niko's a very bad man. After that he decided to just stick to his patented jab to the body and hope for a decision. Most of the time it worked, but in the case of Haye he got robbed. **** it.

    Holy and Ruiz clearly won those fights
