    Wouldn't a unification generate more money in MSG?
    I guess Germany can provide more money.
    OR maybe Wlad is playing with his weight right now, to show King that America is not the only place with money.

      Wlad also said that a "World Champion" is just that, a Champion that fights around the World.

      Wlad also has popularity in Germany.

        Maybe not. IMO Germany is becoming the "Las Vegas" of Europe; it's doing so because it's in central in location, it brings together some of the best talent in Europe, and the fighters are paid in a stronger currency the Euro.

          Good point. Ali fought a lot out of the country as did several before him all the way back to Tommy Burns. Personally, I think that's the right attitude for a World Champion to have. The World does need to know who their champion his and not just if you can afford to be a high roller in Las Vegas or Atlantic City.

            Unlike Rahman Wlad will not forget to throw the jab after Round 2.

                I really hope this fight happens. Wlad should go through Maskaev without too many difficulties and we'll be one step closer to a world where one man is champ.

                  It's seems that Wlad is gonna fight a little more now, which is kinda odd especially with that bad cut he had...

                      Wlad is very big there, indeed. This girl from Germany that I'm friends with was an au pair here and when I mentioned Wladimir Klitschko she knew exactly who I was talking about, even though she hates boxing.
