I know I know, this thread is *******ed! But let's give it a shot. Weight would be unlimited as there is no possible catchweight that could make sense. Valuev is a special kind of fighter who while effective against fellow big men is rendered helpless against athletic elites. I wouldn't consider Pacquiao fighting any other high level heavies, but Valuev is so overwhelmingly big that it could work to his disadvantage.

If Manny didn't want to get hit, there's no way Valuev could hit him. It would be near impossible for Manny to hit Valuev in the head unless Valuev bent down, but Manny could theoretically reach/hop and land punches on his waistline. Nothing strong enough to hurt or force respect, but possibly enough to score. How does everyone see this fight playing out? Poll to follow!!

If Manny were to turn Valuev, he'd be able to get 2 to 3 shots off before Valuev was even in position/set to throw. In addition to the fact that Valuev would have to bend far down just to reach his tiny target.

24ft ring, Pacquiao would win.

How could Valuev ever hit him? I can't imagine it.. I admit if Pacquiao tried being brave and letting Valuev trap him on the ropes like with Cotto. He could actually get killed. Straight up murdered.. but he wouldn't do that. Pac could run in and tie Valuev's sneakers together and be out before Nikolai threw a jab.

Manny would win more convincingly than Haye

All Valuev has to do is ask, Bob's not scared. Let's do this. Can't wait to hear Roach ripping him in the press during training.

Natas thinks Manny doesn't let Valuev off the hook.. Finishes the job, I can respect that. Manny's a great finisher.
