    It's amazing how big the Klitschko's are in Europe

    The Vitali vs Kevin Johnson fight has already sold out, 17,000 arena. Pretty amazing, when Johnson isn't even known in Europe.

    And in Wlad's last fight, he gets 60 thousand attendance for his fight with Chagaev.

    Both sell out every arena they go to in Europe. Heavyweight boxing may not be big in USA, but it's never been better in Europe.

    The Klitschko's are so damn big in Europe!

          But there is more to europe then just them. They aren't well known in europe as a whole but in germany and the ukraine they are.

          if every fourth person in germany knew about them they'd be massive in germany, but if only 1 in every 400 people in europe know about them are they big in europe?

              I live in Europe (Milan).

              The Klit brothers are very famouse in ukraine, in germany, austria and switzerland. But, for example, German people ove them but they prefer Sturm or Abraham, patriotic stuff.

                On the mainland of Europe - not only in Germany and Ukraine, but also in Scandinavia, Russia, Netherlands, Austria, Switzerland, Poland, etc. the Klitschkos are very famous.

                  yep, i live in scandinavia(sweden) and after the Chagaev fight it was on the first page of the biggest newspaper there is here. they might not be household names over here but i think most people who follows sport knows their name.
