WBA heavyweight champion Nikolai Valuev has given an exclusive interview to *********.com. The Russian Giant told us about preparation for his fight against former four-time champion Evander Holyfield, and also has told us that wishes to box against Vitali Klitschko.
You will fight on December 20th against Evander Holyfield. Your manager said that you do not want this fight.
Yes, that is validly so. I am seriously concerned about this boxer. He was a great champion, but at 46 years of age, his time has already passed. This fight, however, will take place.
Could you find another opponent to fight?
To tell the truth, no. I do not have other options. Worthy nominees except Holyfield are not present. But I think that this fight it is not such a good reflection of my image.
What you know about Holyfield?
Behind his shoulders is a wide experience. But I am assured of the victory.
WBC champion Vitali Klichko has declared that he wishes to box with you. Would this bout be interesting to you?
Yes, I would like to fight with him. A lot of fans of boxing have waited many years for this bout. But this fight is realistic only after my fight with Ruslan Сhagaev.
You have already signed the contract to fight?
I have signed.
How's your preparation for fight?
- Preparation goes very well. The first stage was in Japan, now I train in the city of St. Petersburg, Russia, and on November 17th I depart to Germany.
