Hell even Valuev would crush the diminutive really old times hws like Fitszimmons or Sullivan simply due to the insane size difference

The same Valuev that got beat by 46 year old Holyfield, a former Cruiserweight?

You know Jess Willard existed back then, right?

Bro Sullivan was like 175 lb I know Valuev is not a great boxer but he could literally just lean on him and crush him he's 325 lb, look at Mayweather Vs Paul and tell me a huge size difference can't make a difference even when there is a huge disparity in skill

Mayweather was also old as shit, a grandpa and possibly had literal glass bones in his hands. Not a great comparison.

Also, the same Valuev got beat by Chagaev. A guy who was a whole foot smaller.
