    Id give Dempsey a 50-50 chance even in his weight drained condition.

    Bruno and Moorer probably still could, cold, without any training. LOL

    And Lewis could without any training, without question. No probablies about it, Lewis could drop the commentating mic, climb into the ring and thrash Valuev, withou so much as a pushup of training......and never even have to take his HBO suit off to do it.

    I like to think a handful of those fighters could. Valuev is a giant, no talented goon.

    i would say bowe with some serious training. valuev would thrash tyson like he did Clif Etienne in their fight. Foreman would have a good chance at doing it he is a freak of nature and i firmly believe that the only reason buster douglas beat tyson is that tysons handlers were scared of a foreman tyson fight because it wouldve been foreman/frasier all over again. lewis could do it with a little training and possibly moorer could outpoint him. the only one id give a chance to get a stoppage win over valuev would be foreman

    Seriously, I would give Bowe, Foreman, Holmes and Moorer with proper training and tune-ups.
