David vs Goliath?

So, in the world of Boxing, this guys definatly Goliath.

7ft tall and weighing in at 320lbs, Nikolay Valuev basically is monsterous. Check out some of these shots. How fair does that look?

Anyone care to step into the ring with this man?

Key to bringing down a big tall man is to stay real close.

Yea, there certainly are some downfalls.

But if he keeps his distance, hitting down produces so much more force than hitting up. If hes any kind of decent fighter and not some circus show he would be tough.

It just looks funny how some of those shots hes destroying someone in a single punch.

WWS, that guy is 14 inches taller than you are.

that isnt all impressive, i am 14 inchers taller than you [;)]

Hopefully David has his trusty sling shot, if not he is going DOWN.

14 inches taller and 14 inches more space to hit. plus the guy looks like a total retard, seen his face?

Picture 8 says it all.

^^HE doesnt look like a retard, he looks very Russian. Very typical facial structure.

14 more inches of leverage and muscle too though

I saw him fight a few months ago. The announcer said his PSI punch power is the highest of all time. Not only does he have a huge height and reach advantage, he also packs a massive punch. I agree with Oscar in that the key would be to stay in close and not allow him to get full extension with his punches. Even then, the if the guys stands fairly upright the whole time, it will be pretty difficult to land a full power/extension punch to his head. I have been active in martial arts for about 10 years now and I confidently can say as a experienced fighter that I would have no problem turning tail and running like hell from a guy like this. He is just too big and powerful to mess with trying any close combat with. I also think that any attempt to take out his legs to even the fight would be extremely hard due to the fact that he is just so heavy.

In short, I think he has the potential to be one of the more dominant heavy weights in history. Just ask Don King, it seems he is already on his bandwagon.

kick him in the nuts?

^Street fighting rules are exluded from my above statement. Since he is Russian, my guess is steroids have shrunk his raisins so small that kicking him in the gonads may be a exercise in futility.

A big gun may work Ok though.

Image 13 is just funny, he looks half his size! .

On image 24, they are standing pitchside of a Champions League game ... not entirely sure who's playing though.

No no, if you shoot him you will only make him mad.

Anyone remember Rocky V? He is a man, and he has weaknesses.
Seriously though, that is one heck of a beast ...
