Comments Thread For: Valuev Explains Why The Klitschko Fight Never Happened

[Jewish-Reptile]

Valuev spends about 100 grand per month on groceries alone.

A million wasn't enough for a man of his size.

Not true.

Valuev spends next to nothing as Don King took all his money.

Valuev shood have taken his beat down off of Vitali graciously, look what it did for Briggs rep, that **** spent a fortnight in hospital after Vitali pulverised his sphincter of course Vitali took care of his medical expenses, after all the fun he had he felt obliged.

1mil to fight heavyweight champion?? Given the fight was a big deal in europe that seems way to low even if valuev wasnt champ, would have been easy win for vitali as valuev was just too damn slow. 3mil atleast, klitchko would have made a killing was already selling out 50k arenas fighting nobodys.

I think Vitali beats him I don't think Wlad would have.

Wlad needs his size to win.

Vitali was just a beast.

1 mil was a good offer to fight the champ when he just lost to Haye. Valuev never wanted none of Vitali and the contract is actually the best offer on the planet for heavyweights at the time. If he beat Vitali by some miracle the rematch purse would have been life changing. At least Haye finally sacked up. Niko never did.

I regret I didn't see that fight. It would be MASSIVE. But Valuev was scared. He could have make a good deal as demand was HUGE.

P.S. This article says about 2.5mil offer. I heard from Valuev about 2 mil offer.
I don't know whereonly 1 mil offer appeared from.
