The former world heavyweight boxing champion is also being drafted to fight in Ukraine.
Nikolai Valuev received a call to the draft board. This was said by the former world heavyweight champion himself, who is now a deputy of the Russian State Duma.
According to the former athlete, he will go to the draft board. It should be noted that the Russian deputies have a reprieve and it is certain that Valuev will not be sent to the war in Ukraine.
“I think they all came. I also received a summons. I will now go to the military registration and enlistment office. My colleagues are just great, they did it, entered the military register at the State Duma and received a call here, and I have to go home. Next week I will definitely go to the military enlistment office,” Izvestia told Valuev.
Recall that earlier the former football player of the Russian national team underwent mobilization from the Kremlin.
