The Klit brothers are death for TV ratings. That's why no one wants to put them on.

Vitali versus Arreola was the highest rated fight on HBO last year. So there goes your theory.

lol

Yeah, thanks to all the Hispanic fans who tuned in to watch Arreola!

It's not an accident that the Klitschkos are hardly ever on American TV. The free market is speaking loud and clear.

Good that the fight is on stream PPV, because usually I can't watch the Klitschko fights here in Spain except through ****ty streams.

I find it absolutely disgraceful that no American network will pick this fight up. How is HBO going to give us garbage **** which is Friday Night Fights worthy, like Gamboa vs Mtagwa, but won't put the money up for The Heavyweight Championship of the world, with the the number one American heavyweight and number 3 ranked heavyweight in the world being the challenger. The last time they showed Vladamir on HBO it was against Rahman, who had no business getting that fight. Oh well. I guess they figure putting on Marcos Maidana vs Victory Cayo and Ali Funeka Joan Guzman 2 a wqeek later is what people really want. Seriously, does anyone really give a **** about Funeka presumably getting his revenge? Awful. I don't know why ESPN didn't pick this up. They picked the Chagaev fight up. Why not Eddie Chambers.

because Gamboa is the best boxer right now!!!

Yeah I agree. It is disgraceful, I thought Showtime might pick it up but I guess not.

Chambers will make this fight be better than some other Wlad fights. I still have Wlad by late stoppage though.
