The 46 year old looks ready!

holyfield as usual looks great body wise a keep waiting on the day he starts to sag and that still got the 6pack at 46 for a heavyweight is unreal shame he doesnt box how he looks,valuev looks his usual,lbig fat balding ape haha

what the fucks his actual weight holyfield usualy comes in 215

I saw 214 somewhere and 310 for Valuev (career lightest!)

thats just lighter when he fought tyson thats mental am always surprised. you would think hed get a bit heavier hes a healthy guy tho

crazy - the man must train like a demon, he is always around 215-220. Compared to the man on the street he's awesome but in the game hes in the caveman will do the business as holy fights only a bit better than a 46 year old

a smell upset valuev looks shit he always does but coming in lighter wont help him a think valuev lost a bit muscle or suming his arms are pathetic he doesnt look right could betaking holy easy,holy looked decent sparring on the net anyway just watcht it on boxing espn.all be loaded if evender does it.

People are picking Evander as it draws closer. If Valuev has slacked, it could be the difference between win or lose.

Evander is looking in good shape as usual, Valuev is looking ugly as usual lol

Prelude to an 'ug;y win'....or an ugly loss, Evander can win ugly at times!

TBH i think this will be an ugly boring fight, i reckon evander may scrape a decision but we will see

That's the impression everyone is getting. The question is....is Valuev as bad as he seems. If he is, even an old worn out Evander may nick it.

Well i have never seen Valuev as a impressive fighter, he is just a big bugger, although i must say he has improved alot, i really think its achievable for evander if he has the right gameplan and sticks to it

--- When you're Evan Field, it comes very easy.

Wouldn't be surprised to see Evan win. Valuev is handicapped by not wanting this bout and not wanting to hit Evan. He's a sentient brute, not a beast. Add on the location, Switzerland, it has the stench of 1965 Lewiston, Maine all over it.

Valuev is no fool. If the Russian mafia tell him to dive, he will dive. He has a built in Oscar excuse of being light, overtrained which mitigates the ignomy and keeps him in the mix.

Anyone who has watched Evan knows he's in terrible straights. At the same time, they could sacrifice Evan if they think they can make more money out of future Valuev bouts.

Toney would be the perfect freak show. Let's not forget that Chagaev has had injuries that have allowed Evan to step into 2 straight title challenges on the strength of his Oquendo "victory" where he was literally unable to throw or land but one punch which happened to be an early KD of the hapless Fres.

Fres just shut out Toney, losing the bout by wide decision. Povetkin mysteriously suffered a Chagaev style injury, allowing Rahman to step in. Last time Rahman looked good was pitching a masterclass over Toney, yet only securing a draw many years back. He barely showed up for the rematch, quit, and boom, title shot.

Let's not overlook the long arm of Con King in this. I can accept legit injuries, it's the bogus replacements that stink up the joint.

Otherwise, Niko hands out the beatdown of the year.

I predict Valuev to win easily by UD. Evander may nick a round or two early on but I think scores of 118-110, 119-109 or possibly 120-108 in favour of the hairy beast are not inconceivable.
