    On the positive side....

    ... I guess Commander Vander would only have used it as an excuse to get a unification bout with one of the Klitschkos and got hurt in the process. At least we'll be spared seeing that horrific spectacle.

    It's somewhat hard to score rounds when a guy's winning by only throwing four punches a round, but the only round I definitely had for Valuev was the last. A draw I could just about see, but....

    I imagine there's a few "cheating Euros" threads here, but let's not forget they were low output rounds with Holy on the retreat and Val pursuing. Don't get me wrong, I had Commander Vander winning the fight by at least two rounds, but I've seen worse. In fact, I saw CV get a draw against a certain overweight Jamaican in the United States itself.....

      That sticks in my craw anyway. I'm a huge Commander Vander fan, but all this "four time" stuff ****s over Ali's legacy when he's probably only, what? Two time? Really, I mean. This isn't a "championship" fight, it's a title.

        Big difference between champions and titles. Valuev is the WBA's paper champ after that Chagaev fella got injured. Wlady is the real heavyweight champ and Holy is only 2-time legit champ.
