If Valuev VS Wladimir Klitschko, who would win?

Question

who do you think would be the best of the 4 title of Heavy weight champ?
Nikolay Valuev WBA
Sergei Liakhovich WBO
Wladimir Klitschko IBF
Oleg Maskaev WBC

Answer 1

Klitschko said he wouldn't fight Valuev because Valuev is too dedicated, Russia probably wants Valuev to be the over all champ and the others wouldn't think of going against Russia's ideas.

Answer 2

Valuev Vs Klitschko

Answer 3

I truly weep for the heavyweight division. I remember when Lennox Lewis retired, one HBO commentator said that he wouldn't be surprised if someone surprised the division and took his mantle in about a year. It's been over two and a half years, and the picture looks even bleaker than it did back then. Of this group of paper tigers, I would have to go with Wladimir Klitschko, even though he has historically displayed a glass jaw. I just wish his older brother weren't retired so that we could have a real champion.

David Tua was a great boxer in his day, but his day is over. As a fan, I will never forgive Lennox Lewis for dodging a rematch Vitali Klitschko. I watched their only bout, and had it not been for the cut, Lewis would not have seen the fifth round.

Boxing as a whole is in such a sorry state right now that I'm now a much bigger fan of mixed martial arts. Anyone from the UFC would completely pwn any of the best boxers in their respective weight divisions.

Answer 4

I definately think that klitschko would win. He is a natural athelete. I confess I never saw valuev before the monte barrat fight a few weeks ago but , after watching him "fight" I am more impressed with his awesome stature than his boxing skills "or lack thereof". His massive size seems impenatrable, his huge head unreachable, and body shots didn't seem to phase him. However, against a skilled and seasoned fighter like klitschko, he (valuev) wouldn't stand a chance. Klitschko is much more agile, can effectively power punch from different angles (monte seemed to fight valuev straight in front of him) and uses a powerful jab to set up combinations. Klitschko is a dangerous fighter. This matchup would be the equivilant of a klitschko vs butterbean deal. More of an exhibition. In all fairness, though, I couldn't skip over the fact of Klitschko's questionable chin. If he gets hit in the sweet spot, who knows....

In my opinion, Wladimir is the best of the Heavies out there today, although he does have a suspect chin. He handled Peters blows pretty good and he was suppose to be the hardest puncher in the Heavyweight division. I think Emmanuel his helping him in more ways than one up there in the Poconos.
Wladimir would stop the "Giant" Russian Valuev in less the 6 rounds. Valuev was getting cracked by a much smaller Barrett in his last fight and was clearly bothered by the blows. Monte isn't known to be that big of a puncher and I believe that is one of the reasons he was picked, but Wladimir can punch and he's closer to Valuev in height. Valuevs boxing style is very amateurish at best, he clubs with his punches instead of throwing them straight. Another thing Valuev doesn't do is use his reach, he paws a weak jab out there compared to Wladimirs hard, crisp jabs.
I like Sergei, I think he has the best boxing skills of all of the current Champions, Wladimir does hit harder though. Liakhovich doesn't regress back into his old Eastern European style which all of the current "Champions" do today once they get hit with solid shots. They Keep their chins up in the air, they paw with their jabs and they extend their jab all the way out until there's a slight brake in the elbow (measuring an opponent) Sergei fights in the American type of style all of the time.
So the Answer to your question is Wladimir would stop Valuev in less than 6 rounds. Liakhovich is the best boxer of the heavyweight "Champions" but if he was ever to fight against Klitschko, Wladimir would knock him out in 7 rounds he hits way too hard. hornorable mention goes to Maskaev for his power.
Under normal circumstances Valuev wouldn't be in the top 50 heavyweights. He's a circus.
Thanks for the question Robber.

Answer 6

Klitschko would beat the crap out of Valuev. Valuev sucks big time.

I'd like to see Sergei Liakhovich fight Klitschko

Answer 7

valuev is still untested... he's killed nobodies. Klitschko is a seasoned fighter who has gone rounds with the best out there (not that that's saying much)

I think Maskaev and Klitschko is the best heavyweight championship

Answer 8

Klitschko would defeat Valuev, he is quicker on his feet and has a better punsch

Answer 9

Klitschko would kill Valuev. He is too fast. Klitschko is the best.

Answer 10

Robber I apologize in advance. I mean no insult to you when I say it's hard for me to get excited about the Heavyweight division. I could care less until the next great Heavyweight comes along. The real talent in boxing these days are in the lighter weight classes. I'd say the Middleweights maybe even the Welterweights and below.
