Nikolai Valuev

Nikolai Valuev, a figure known not only for his political pursuits today but also for a distinguished boxing career, once reigned as the world heavyweight champion on two separate occasions. Standing at an astonishing 7 feet tall and tipping the scales at 328 pounds, Valuev was an undeniable force within the boxing ring.
His physical stature was marked by the effects of a unique medical condition – a combination of gigantism and acromegaly. Remarkably, these distinct attributes may have contributed to his imposing presence in the boxing world, complementing his considerable physical strength with an imposing appearance.
