Wladimir Klitschko is an anti star.

Wlad lost his HBO privileges vs Ibragimov then they brought him back for Povetkin, which was horrible too he gets his love in Europe rather than the US he's a big star, just not everywhere

Wladimir has a great personality and I always enjoying watching his appearances and listening to his interviews but when it comes fight time I'm nowhere to be found. He's the most unwatchable known boxer in the history of the sport.

Because the Germans lap it up. It's an event to them. With orchestras and ballet dancers and stuff. They don't have the first clue about boxing. Fools love a fool. People who watch Pacquiao and Mayweather don't know shit about boxing either. A star is a star.

He is the undisputed world HW champion and yet is such a non celebrity that his fights are not even on subscription tv, leave alone PPV. His fights are shown on Eurosport for free - which itself is a free to air channel. I cant think of another HW in the modern era who has been a champ and yet cant even get on sky sports. :lol1: British people buy only really PPV worthy events. Like David Haye -Audley Harrison for example.

His net worth is listed as $30 million.

He was the second highest paid boxer last year. But he was the first boringest boxer last year.

The fact the fight is on Eurosport speaks volumes. People don't want to watch Wlad. They're counting the days until he retires. the polite clapping german crowd says otherwise

The fact the fight is on Eurosport speaks volumes. People don't want to watch Wlad. They're counting the days until he retires. Eurosport 2 to be exact. :lol1:

It's not Wladimirs fault there isn't anyone around to pose a great challenge.

He's the anti-Christ of boxing!

I respect WK skills - he's a solid boxer, a champion. Just wish he had a bit of personality.

You also have people like Daggum who think Klitschko is boring but spend roughly 5 hours a day every day analyzing him. thats unfair. it doesn't take long to write clinchko, bum, akwindade, cheater, etc...3 hours tops

He's not british or American and i dont think there's PPV in Germany

he's an anti-boxer

I didnt say he wasnt good. I say he isnt a star. Wilder is an exciting fighter.
