    1. Has Vitali grown too old to handle his brother's speed?
    2. Agree.
    3. But it could go either way :)
    4. But it could go either way :)
    5. Agree.
    6. It would be interesting. Think about it.
    7. Agree.
    8. It could go either way, but they're both fat and I think that height will thus give Nikolai Valuev an advantage.

    1: Vitali Klitschko vs. Wladimir Klitschko - Vitaly, just because he can take a punch better. technique-wise Wlad is better.

    2: Lucian Bute vs. Robert Stieglitz - Bute by KO. Steig won't have enough firepower to keep Bute off him.

    3: Lucian Bute vs. Arthur Abraham - I'm tempted to say Bute, as AA has faltered against all 168 lb title holders he's been against with the exception of Steig who I feel as a weak champion.

    4: Andre Ward vs. Joe Calzaghe - Joe C, for better workrate

    5: Floyd Mayweather vs. Manny Pacquaio - I still pick Pac, take it with a grain of salt.

    6: Floyd Mayweather vs. Evander Holyfield - WTF? :lol:

    7: Rocky Marciano vs. Mike Tyson - I'll stick to Marciano by TKO late.

    8: Nikolai Valuev vs. Brian Nielsen - Valuev will smother Nielsen to death.
