%foto2%WBA heavyweight champion Nikolai Valuev remembers the day when he first saw David Haye. Valuev remembers like it was yesterday, when he saw Haye at the press conference to announce the fight with Wladimir Klitschko - later cancelled when Haye withdrew with an injury. Valuev was upset with the infamous t-shirt Haye wore. The infamous t-shirt with an image of Haye holding the severed heads of the Klitschko brothers. Valuev takes on Haye on November 7. Valuev says the big mouth of Haye and his insults don\'t mean anything. \"I remember it, and I thought here we go, another idiot in boxing,\" said Valuev to The Telegraph. \"I don\'t care what he says about me. Mind games don\'t interest me. I want David Haye to do his talking in the ring. I am expecting a tough fight.\" Valuev may not like Haye, but he does love London. He fought there a few times under promoter Frank Maloney. \"I could lose myself in London. In fact, when I was fighting in Battersea one night, I was so busy taking in the sights, I nearly missed my fight. I had a phone call saying \'Where are you? You are due to fight in a couple of hours \' I was sightseeing. But I nearly missed my fight,\" Valuev said.
