    The biggest problem is the lack of entertaining fights. Not a big surprise when fights like Ruiz - Valuev II are made.

    I'm looking forward to Vitali vs Peter, but because of Vitali's inactivity and Peter's rough tactics it could turn out to be another disappointment. Here's to hoping that it won't.

      Wlad, Vitali, Chagaev, Dimitrenko, Povetkin, Ibragimov, etc... would all beat Valuev

        I don't think so. Gene Tunney, Max Scmehling, Max Baer, The Cinderella man.

        do you realize how huge the heavyweight division was at that time? the present era doesn't even compare. only a david haye can bring the hw's back to life.

          It's appauling! Valuev is a 7ft hairy gorrila with a jab! This is abysmal. Why hasn't Wlad cleared out this rubbish division yet? It's clear he can do it the only threats left are Haye and Chagaev. I pray to god Haye grows a chin and KO's these pretenders. Or Wlad makes thing exciting and starts exchanging and unifying more often. Hell I don't care if Chagaev does it but someone has to!

          Peter, Ruiz, Valuev, Chagaev, Povetkin, Chambers, Thompson etc. would bo NOBODIES in the era of Bowe, Lennox, Tyson, Holyfield or Ali, Foreman, Fraizer, Norton.
          You're forgetting something, Wlad is one of the all time greats and knocks everyone out in brutal fashion. lol

            At least Peter and Vitali have dangerous power. I'm expecting that fight to be very brutal. These two guys just guarantee you 12 boring rounds.

              One thing I always find funny is how Skelton, such a totally **** fighter made one of the best Heavyweights in the world look so aweful!
