How many people here have actually seen Valuev fight?

I'm just curious because I haven't seen him once yet (d/ling some now) and I'm interested to know how informed all these "Ruiz vs. Valuev" posts are.

Just clips.......

Seriously, he looks like a bear mauling his prey. He's about the size of a bear and his punches are so slow it's ridiculous. Yet he lands a paw on a guy in the right place and they'll go down.

Watch an episode of "When Animals Attack" involving a bear mauling to prep yourself for the fight this weekend.

I saw him the back end of last year against Gerald Nobles, who looked himself a good prospect (Noble's was disqualified I think?)

He looked imposing because he's huge (around 7ft)and he has a lot of wins and KO's but I dont think he has beaten any real class fighters or even gone the European Championship route and fought any 'local stars'.

He's possibly one to watch though!

I have never seen him fight. Does he hit hard?

Yes, but he should the size of him!

He is slow though!

He is slow though!

Mickey, who do you think is going to win?

I have seen him against Levin and Tisdale. The guy is huge and power or not, some opponents are afraid just to be in front of that thing. He beat Cliff Etienne, who is a decent opponent for his record.

Difficult but Ruiz is small for a heavy and this guy is huge, if Ruiz was a Tyson type fighter with lightening hand and foot speed and power then I would say him but he is not so I will say Valuev simply on strength and size!

He may choke though like Harrison last week???
