Vitali Klitschko Calls Valuev A Chicken

Since the negotiations with former WBA champion Nicolai Valuev went bust, current WBC champion has called Valuev a chicken for not taking the fight for $2.5 million. Klitschko originally offered Valuev $1 million which is plenty in my opinion for an ex champion and would be more than Valuev would get anywhere else to $2 million to $2.5 million dollars. Still team Valuev with Don King was not satisfied and wanted to have $2.5 and a portion of TV broadcasting revenue. This is what Vitali had to say about the situation....

"Valuev is chicken. We gave him the biggest financial proposal of his career, $2.5 million, and he says 'no'. He understands that if he loses this fight, that's it for a long time in his career. Because it's the money for his pension – that's why he wanted $4 million. He's not a big champion."
