Valuev comments on Maskaev!
"I´m practicing in our training camp in Armenia at the moment, 2,000 meters high, in preparation for the fight versus Monte Barrett. That's why I had no possibility to see Oleg's fight on the TV. But I was sure that Oleg would get the title, as I stated before. I want to congratulate Oleg and wish him all the best. He is – as we say in Russian – a "Molodjez!" (a great guy). "Now all the heavyweight champions come from the former Soviet Union. That shows that there is a lot of power in the East European fighters. The people in my country are proud about that. Of course I will do all I can to defend my title succesfully in the USA versus Monte Barrett." --Nikolai Valuev
