Valuev vs. Lyakhovich

[dmaclv]

Nikolay and Lyakhovich are rumored to be fighting January 19th in Germany. Lyakhovich will be coming off a 14 month layoff after his loss to Briggs. I'm guessing Lyakhovich he's less skilled then Chagaev but he kind of makes up for that in being 6'4. MD for Lyakhovich in a slow fight.

Valuev UD. Lyakhovich had a lot of time off, I don't think he has much of a chance.

The outcome of this fight depends on which Lyakhovich shows up for the fight. A "Brewster" Lyakhovich wins over Valuev in a very exciting fight by UD, possibly TKO. A "Briggs" Lyakhovich loses to Valuev by UD in a "Most boring FOTY" candidate.

It's hard to predict as Lyakovic is unpredictable

If Liakhovich isnt a bum after his huge ass layoff, I think his lead right hand to the body would score a lot and pretty clean too, Valuev is kind of a big target...I would say he could get a win over Valuev.

is Kenny still training him? I think hes an underrated trainer. I didnt see the Briggs fight because I heard it was horrible and never bothered to put myself through it, so Im definitely not up to date.
