The world heavyweight champion of the WBC, Vitali Klitschko, has issued a reponse to the recent comments made by former champion Nikolai Valuev. The "Russian Giant" said Klitschko was not offering enough money to make a fight between the two of them possible. Klitschko does not give the amount, but says the amount of money received by Shannon Briggs was much less than the amount of money that was offered to Valuev.
"Valuev has made comments that there hasn't been enough money to make the fight. The amount that Briggs received for our fight, was many times less than what I presented to Nicholas. But the millions of dollars that were offered - Nicholas calls pathetic - and he uses every opportunity to avoid getting in the ring," Klitschko told URA.
