Valuev Receiving Offers From Hollywood, Eyes Klitschko

By Ruslan Chikov

Former heavyweight champion Nikolai Valuev will continue to field offers for select roles on the movie screen. Despite his recent surgey to fix a shoulder injury, Valuev is playing a major character in the overseas film “Abominable Snowman.” Golzka reports the 7-foot Valuev is now receiving offers for movie roles from Hollywood in the United States.

Valuev is still willing to sit down and make a fight with WBC heavyweight champion Vitali Klitschko. Twice they tried and twice they failed. He hopes the next time around they are able to make an agreement.

"I'm not friends with the brothers, so there is little that I can say about them as people, but they are good businessmen and boxers. With regard to a long-standing conversation about making a fight with Vitali Klitschko, I can not say anything definite. It was already twice that the Ukrainian allegedly tried to talk to me. But the key word here is allegedly," Valuev said.
