Russian Boxer Valuev Number One WBA Heavyweight
Russian boxer Nikolai Valuev has reached the top of the WBA heavyweight rating.
Earlier, Valuev, Russia’s largest boxer at 151 kilograms and a height of 215 centimeters, occupied the third place in the list.
Valuev will thus fight the current WBA heavyweight champion John Ruiz as the latter he defends his title.
The Russian’s manager, Wilfried Sauerland, was quoted by RTR-Sport television channel as saying he will take all measures to make the match between Valuev and Ruiz take place this year.
Valuev has so far won 43 matches and lost none. In 32 of the matches, he won with a knockout. He has reached the ninth place in the WBC rating list.
Nice chest. Has he got a boyfriend?
I don't feel shame because of Golota, just like I wouldn't feel pride if he'd won. Golota should switch over to sausage industry.
rent or buy the documentary of his fight with foreman.

Who can fight him? Such weight and height. He probably has been in his own cathegory.
I saw once his fight with some guy which lesser then him about half head. It looks like Valuev wanted not to hurt him. Because only one punch and opponent is dead.
Terell was 6' 6"... :-)
I still thinkAli in his prime would have flattened the Russian. Rocky Balboa could too.

Looks like he fell out of the Ugly Tree and hit every branch on the way down!
Sure the smaller guy can negate the big guy's weight advantage through boxing skills, which is why I agreed that Louis would beat this guy. That is a given. It is also a given that, except for the heavywieght class, we match fighters of about equal weight. Size does matter.
As to me - with such a guy - even one glance would be enough. :-)))==
I saw the TV show with him. He is very intellegent guy. He and his trainer plan tactics for the fight as chess players.
He looks like very scareful on ring. He just need one punch.

If he would get near distance. Valuev hands is like longer range cannons can hit opponent BEFORE he could get to him.
His opponents only hope is to get near. Valuev is not stupid and well knows it.
One look at this guy, and you just know he lacks a pain center in his brain.
Fag.
Nice chest. Has he got a boyfriend?
Fag.==
You are fag yourself. Stop talk about guy you don't know.
Valuev has wife and son. Mayb ewill hav eanother child soon. I saw show with him on TV. He is intellegent guy. And religious.
Not that I'd say that to his face.
That works well in theory. A superior boxer and ring tactician can get inside his longer reach, attack him, and then get back outside. Superior quickness and speed can negate advantages such as reach and power. It is not called the sweet science for nothing.
Wladimir Klitschko had similar advantages over the smaller Lamont Brewster and got knocked out in the 5th round. Wladimir is 6'6" compared to Brewster's 6'1".
Show me - is he the real deal? If looks could win a fight I'd understand his win streak.
