    Floyd is so much faster and better, I don't think Valuev could even touch him. Floyd could beat him like he beat the Big Show! Speed Kills!

    Well, PBF is fast and good and slick. So I don't think anyone could beat him.

    I don't think Floyds elbow to the throat maneuver would work in this one though.

    Problem is...he wont be able to hit Valuev anywhere above the waist and so he'll be disqualified.

    Floyd one ups Willie Pep and wins an entire fight without landing a punch.

    PBF surprised everybody by being stronger than Mosley. Maybe he can pull another surprise and outmuscle Valuev. He did it once, why not again

    Ignoring knowledge and indulging in echolocation.
    Valuev is a fucken useless oaf,.. all Fraud would have to do is jab to the body and move and there will be no choice but to score it for him, Valuev's gigantism is a burden, not an advantage. Wlad Klitschko on the otherhand,..that's a dangerous, midget killing heavyweight if ever there was one.

    Valuev would accidentally step on Floyd, squishing him to death.

    After watching a fossilised Holyfield decision Valuev, I no longer rule anything out with the giant. He is incompetent beyond even my worst assessments of him.

    Actually, that's not true at all. Let's use the WWE 7' wrestler as a reference for Valuev. You can see in this pic that Floyd is obviously not as short as that. He could touch Valuev's face with his fists and easily could work the body. It's about whether Floyd could avoid the clinches and move around the ring without getting cornered.

    No that´s not the problem. Ever since he changed coaches he has stopped throwing punches. Obviously he does suck, but early in his career, he was at least throwing and overcoming guys with his sheer physical presence and the pain he inflicted on opponents with the breeze of his missing punches, but nowadays he just walks around the ring for 12 rounds doing nothing.

    I still say Hopkins biggest mistake was not taking him on, when he still had a belt. He could have turned that into a 25-30 million dollar ass-kicking by the Klitschko brother of his choosing, instead of fighting Ornelas and RJJ for 10% of that.

    Very well put. If Valuev just kept his jab pumping and wrestled at close, he would be damn difficult to beat for most heavyweights. For some reason though he has forgotten the little of balance he once had and does not throw the jab, which allowed even Holyfield to fight evenly with him

    It's obvious he is, his human growth hormone level is much higher than the natural level.

    Sorry Ron if you feel that way towards my thread. This was actually a serious thread after I saw Floyd handle the Big Show at Wrestlemania. I think Floyd could beat Valuev.
