KEY POINTS:
Russian giant Nikolai Valuev's 16-month reign as World Boxing Association heavyweight champion ended yesterday as Uzbekistan's Ruslan Chagaev took over the crown.
The Russian, formerly known as the Beast From the East, was convincingly beaten over 12 rounds in Stuttgart by the powerful challenger.
It was the 33-year-old mammoth's first defeat after 46 wins and one no result.
