After his win over "The Russian Giant," defending world champion Nikolai Valuev, Ruslan Chagaev still had to overcome a "heavy hurdle." Only after walking nearly three hours in and around the Porsche Arena in Stuttgart, could he fulfill his doping "obligations." Finally he was able to join the other members of the Univresum team, his friends and Uzbek Sports Minister Erkinbay Kutibaev in the bar of the Maritim-Hotel in Stuttgart. After that it was a happy, full-scale party that lasted until sunrise. Joined by his manager Taymas Niazov, his trainer Michael Timm and Universum Promoter Klaus-Peter Kohl, Ruslan Chagaev celebrated and enjoyed these nice hours and the fulfilment of his dream, to become the new WBA world champion.
