I'm cautiously optimistic on this one, but I think that Valuev will look to press the fight early and go for the knock out so that a decision will not be in the judges hands. I hope this is the 'break out' performance that we are all waiting for.


    Do you mean you expect a man with no talent to speak of to suddenly start boxing like Floyd Mayweather?

      This fight will be on tv. Its going to be on the same network that Mormeck/Bell 2 was on. The MSG network.

        I wonder who Valuev fights next, after Chagaev? If the Brewster/Wlad II falls through, and if Valuev is free of Don King, we might see Valuev/Wlad on July 7.

          I think Chagaev is a great prospect and I almost don't want him to lose, but Valuev is just too big for him.

          Valuev UD.

            Potatoes, you don't have to box like Floyd Mayweather to make it in this division. What Valuev lacks in skill, he makes up more than enough in his size, stamina, and punching power.

                Im thinking Valuev wins this fight by a boring decision either a tight ud or a sd, but I hate to say but it will be probably be a boring fight but I still want to see it so if anyone has any streams or anything for this fight please let me know

                  If he can't hit you he can't hurt you. All Chagaev has to do is move a little bit and the giant sized Russian won't have any idea how to deal with it. I think Chagaev has the ability, the question is can he use that ability in a time of high stress. Valuev is a pretty scarey looking guy! Did you see the fear in Barrett's eyes? Barrett was too scared to perform well, unlike Larry Donald who did a pretty good job of boxing Valuev. None of these guys are great boxers, but in my view it is a reasonable match of skills and talent.

                    I just read an interview with Vitali Klitschko where he said that they are going to be talking to Valuev's team immediately after the fight to try to set up a Wlad/Valuev fight. Would be pretty cool.

                      Yes, that would be very cool.. Its just what this division needs; a hw 'super fight unification match. I hope Valuev destroys Chagaev so that this fight might happen.
