    Sergei is a joke. Sure he's saying he'll fight, but won't he won't say is at what price. Sergei, you have no name here in America. You are a NOBODY. Stop pricing yourself out of the fight. Just think, if you win, instant name recognition and THEN you can start earning the big bucks.

          Exactly...

              universcum turned down 3 million to fight abraham. i doubt they would take a williams fight no matter the money. maybe they can claim they are mad at williams and won't fight him like arum. much better excuse. give up that worthless wbo belt you stiff euro bum.

                Say what you want. So far team Williams hasn't offered 1 penny for this fight according to Universum.

                To me that makes yesterdays claims rather lame and were only made as an imageboosting gimmick to promote "The feared Pwill".

                  The Abraham-Sturm situation is completely different.

                  Dzinziruk wants to make his US debut and become a world-famous fighter.

                    That's what I believe.

                      A little twist appeared in the Universum statement. Apparantly Dzinziruk now doesnt care WHERE he fights, meaning either Germany or US. Before it was JUST the US.

                      I guess this statement from Universum is the correct interpretation. Otherwise Universums negotiating position would be weakened before the real negotiations had even started.
