    The undercard is excellent, with several interesting fights:

    Pulev vs. Olouken amazingly tough matchmaking in Pulev's third pro fight

    Helenius vs. *****ko biggest test yet for heavyweigh prospect Helenius

    Frenkel vs. Davis the most exciting young cruiserweight in Europe vs. a former world titleholder

    Lyakhovich-Bates a former heavyweight titleholder finally returns

    Ruiz-Serin I'd love to see an upset in this one!
    It's a great undercard and that's why I'll spend the $25 for the PPV. Are you going to order it or watch a stream?...

          Haye vs Valuev because I want to see Haye become a heavyweight champion, how exciting would that be?

            I'm going to order it. But I'll be angry if they don't show the Pulev and Helenius fights.

                Haye/Valuev isn't a more meaningful fight. Dawson/Johnson is a fight between the two best light heavyweights in the world while Haye/Valuev are barely two top ten contenders. Your absolutely right about the undercard, much better for Haye/Valuev. Except for the fact that Kelvin Davis shouldn't be allowed to fight anymore, Liakhovich and Bates is too much of a miss-match, and I hope John Ruiz spontaneously combust before he gets into the ring. Olokun/Pulev and Helenius/*****ko are the two fights that have most of my attention on this card. Aggressive matchmaking can make these two youngsters much more prepared for the top if and when they get there.

                    Do you honestly think Johnson is better than Hopkins?

                    I think the past-prime age 40 Johnson would be now beaten by Tavoris Cloud and Jean Pascal.

                      I agree, those are the best two.

                      But the idiots who made the decisions for the PPV chose not to show them.

                      Additional undercard bouts and highlights will also air on PPV besides Ruiz-Serin. Two other former world champions are on the card, heavyweight Sergei Liakhovich (23-3, 14 KOs) and cruiserweight Kelvin “Concrete” Davis (24-10-3, 17 KOs) vs. Jeremy “The Best” Bates (22-16-1, 18 KOs) and unbeaten IBF No. 10 rated Alexander Frankel, respectively. Undefeated WBC & WBA No. 3 rated cruiserweight Francisco “The Wizard” Palacios (18-0, 11 KOs) is also on the undercard versus DeLeon Tingsley (9-4-1, 5 KOs).

                      Valuev-Haye is promoted by Wilfried Sauerland’s Sauerland Event and its Managing Director, Christian Meyer, in association with Don King Productions. The “David vs. Goliath” show is being distributed in the United States and Canada by Integrated Sports for live viewing at 3 PM/ET – 12 PM/PT on both cable and satellite pay-per-view via iN Demand, DIRECTV, TVN, DISH Network, Viewer’s Choice, Shaw PPV and Bell TV for a suggested retail price of $24.95. A replay will be shown that same night at 9 PM/ET, 6 PM/PT.
