    I watched the Donald/Valuev fight a few weeks after it took place and going off what everyone was saying about Donald being ripped off i expected to see a bad call but although Donald did outbox him in small flashes he was out worked in most of the rounds and i had Valuev winning by at least 3 rounds.
    As for Ruiz,i think he has too much big fight experience for Valuev and will find a way to win

        I'll watch this fight if I'm having trouble sleeping on that night, and my Valium isn't strong enough.

          That "way to win" is called Don King. I don't know what King's been smokin', or who he's been smolkin' it with, but you can bet your ass that DKP ain't givin' up no hvywt belt, lessin' he's gettin' somethin' pretty substancial in return. Like a hvywt that's white, 'specially since nobody's buyin' that Golata bull**** anymore, and he can't control Wlad. Go watch "The Great White Hype" again, if you think I'm crazy.

              In Germany the judges will be biased TOWARDS Ruiz? I figured they'd favor Valuev. Are you sayin' the Germans hate Russians? Makes sense, they seem to like Americans well enough, some of my best friends are from Germany. I just hate Ruiz and DKP so much, I see conspiracies behind every Bush! LOL! Hell, Maybe I'm Russian, that's what she said, anyway, but that was a long time ago, and a whole 'nother story.

                I'll bet DK is getting options on Valuev as a part of the contract. I'm also 95% sure that if Valuev KOs Ruiz, DK will sign him up the next day.

                    I think it should be mentioned that Ruiz retired after the Toney fight. He unretired when his title was returned to him. This could be a factor in the fight, although King's heavyweight tournment coming up would certainly mean more money down the road for Ruiz.
                    Then the factor of the German judges. if they robbed Donald, they'll rob Ruiz. i predict a close fight that could be scored either way then the judges scorecards wil put out something like 116 - 112 verdict in favour of the lumbering bum from Germany!

                      Valuev is from Russia, not Germany. There's a helluva difference, even somebody from the UK should realize that! LOL!!!
