    Then HTF did he get Valuev for fighting Ruiz?

      Either way thats what the fight was for the right to fight for the title......Peter earned it period.

        coming back from repeated leg/knee/shoulder injuries makes nobody the same, i have watched enough sports my whole life as well as suffered enough injuries to know that if you quit because of injury and then come back, your not going to just return to form. i think vitali is a formidable fighter but dont go fooling yourself into thinking hell be the same, he wont

          He bought part of Valuev's contract from sauerland Event.

            he probably wont be,, but even if he's 80% he beats everyone out there besides maybe he bro considering how weak the division is right now

              Briggs will be in great shape. Because if history has shown as anything is that there are plenty of donkey carts for lifting and snow capped mountains to climb while training for a fight in Moscow.

                It will be interesting to see if Briggs loses any of his bulk. He'd be a much better overall fighter if he lost about 20lbs of that. I still maintain that he's the main danger man for Klitschko.

                  Don't forget that Valuev was fighting in Germany all his life and never made any significant $$$ in his life. I bet King promised him the moon from the skies to sign him up. I think it was voluntary.

                    He gets to fight for the title already by paying Peter off and being the emeritus
