Bulgaria has seen off a young and handsome former basketball player to struggle for the title of world's best male model.

Valentin Velchev, 21, leaves Thursday for China to take part in the hot Manhunt International competition next Wednesday, April 19.

Unlike the majority of 80 rivals from the rest of the world, Valentin does not come from the catwalk, but from the events field.

He is a graduate at the Sports Academy in Sofia and his 197-cm imposing figure will surely catch the eye of world fashion's gurus to flock the pageantry.

Last year's contest proved quite successful for Mister Bulgaria 2003. Miroslav Yonchev grabbed the Best World Model title of the Mr Manhunt International contest that was held in Korea.
