EERFIELD BEACH, Fla.—“No more lies, K2,” Team Valuev said today. “No more posturing. No more subterfuge. No more deceit.” [Click Here To Read More]

Nico/Vita. hey...this is as good as any in this division!

This is the kind of match-up the HW division needs: a spectacle. It's entertainment after all, and this should be highly entertaining, a real slugfest.

Can't see it being a slugfest but it's surely a spectacle. Without a doubt two of the biggest heavyweights to ever compete for the heavyweight title. Hopefully Valuev goes all out and risks a knockout loss in order to make something happen, but I tend to doubt it. I can't see him taking too many chances against Vitali, and he will be soundly beaten with his corner possibly pulling him out to prevent Valuev from suffering further humiliation.

I don't understand how a ****ty fighter like Valuev makes this much.

Vitali might not Ko him, i think it's probably going to be a jab fest, plus Vitali doesnt have footspeed, so Valuev will tie him up in a lot of clinches.

Valuev does not deserve that huge of a payday. I doubt we'll see a slugfest either judging from the giant's previous fight.

Valuev will take a massive beating. Will be unpleasant to watch......

Man I have missed some news. What happened to the Valuev-Solis fight?

I don't understand how a ****ty fighter like Valuev makes this much.

7 feet tall
Somehow managed to pile up a record of 50 wins and 2 losses

and the majority of the Klitschko opponents are paid well.

He shouldn't be making that kind of money with his (lack of) talent and skill though.

Vitali might not Ko him, i think it's probably going to be a jab fest, plus Vitali doesnt have footspeed, so Valuev will tie him up in a lot of clinches.

I can't see a clean KO in this fight, but I'm not sure if Valuev has it in him to continue fighting while 8 rounds down on the scorecards.

Viatli is shot.

Valuev is a live dog.
