Felix Sturms Bolts From Universum, Breaks Contract

[warp1432]

I'd say sign with Golden Boy, but doesn't universum have a co alliance with golden boy for the time being?

good. hopefully sturm will come to the US and fight the winner of pavlik/pwill

[The Hammer]

Universum, through Spotlight, already has another middleweight "champion" lined up. German Sebastian "Huggy" Zbik pulled a John Ruiz and hugged his way to a hometown decision for the interim WBC middleweight title last month. Pavlik won't fight Huggy because Zbik won't leave Germany and nobody in the U.S. will pay to see Pavlik KO him. So eventually Zbik will become full champion when Pavlik gives up the belt

Zbik sucks. Golovkin whould destroy him inside three rounds.

Yes they signed a alliance with GBP.

Golovkin is the main man to bring on HBO.

Maidana was just the beggining.

Now, I have massive respect for Sturm because Universium is the worst promotion group in boxing and why should he stay with them when they have the worst world champions Erdei and Balszay.

You don't like Hungarians?

Like I said.I read somewhere he wasn't born in Leverkusen.Might not be true.He ain't 100% german anyway.

Abraham has german citizenship but he is still armenian.

Felix was born in Germany but his parents are Bosnian.

This is a huge surprise to me and a devastating blow to Universum. Sturm was THE marquee fighter and with him gone I'm sure the television earnings will plummit.

[HOMETOWNCHAMP]

Good for Felix

Good job on Sturms behalf. This is something that he needed for a while. He needs to sign with an American company.

That might be one of the reasons he left.

I understand there is a problem between the television and Universum.Sturm got used to fighting for big bucks.
