7ft tall, 147kg Russian born heavyweight champion boxer, Nikolai Valuev, will donate his fight robe to a charity auction raising funds for Action Medeor.
The massive man with foreboding looks will show a lighter side, handing on the robe after his 12 round fight with John Ruiz this weekend in Berlin.
‘I hope for lots of boxing fans to join the auction so that a lot of money will be raised to help children in the poorer regions of the world,’ Valuev said, adding, ‘This project means a lot to me.’
The Nikolai Valuev charity auction, raising funds for Action Medeor, ends September 1.
