Since these are two weakest heavyweight champions who you ppl think would win? i say valuev i could see him use his huge size and tiring maskeav big time.
His chin would be his undoing as Valuev will hurt him even with sloppy arm punches and glancing shots. Valuev is extremely heavy handed, I am impressed with how weak many of his shots that drop opponents are. He only has to slap you and it still rattles your brain.
Maskaev does have a punchers chance however. He hits harder than anyone Valuev has faced so far. We will get to see Nikolai's chin tested as it's never been before.
