La Bestia del Este lee a Tolstoy

Nikolay Valuev, aka the Beast from the East, aka the Russian Giant

Nikolay Valuev is 7 feet tall and weighs 323 pounds. He's also boxing's tallest and heaviest champion (he controversially won the WBA heavyweight championship back in December, 2005) and punningly the newest next big thing to hit the boxing world. Feel free to start the Andre the Giant comparisons now. While Nikolay reads Tolstoy and writes poetry to his wife, there is a big brew-ha-ha in Russia now as he supposed beat the shit out of a security guards that was hassling his wife about where she parked her car. You tell me - is he more Princess Bride Andre or WWF Andre? Regardless, he's 43-0 and may be fighting in AC this year.
