[Marciano90s]

valuev must retire...he pays the judges.

[Mr. Invincible]

Explosive power:

Wladimir Klitschko:
Best heavyweight straight right hand ever probably. Top 3 for sure.
Best jab in the last 25 years.

Vitali Klitschko:
Best chin since David Tua.
Best all around heavyweight fighter since Ali probably.

[ELPERRO]

If the headline is correct...That's a big ass chicken!

[Ovechkin]

WBC heavyweight champion Vitali Klitschko can't believe the seven-foot giant, former champion Nikolai Valuev, turned down an offer of $2.5 million for a fight. The two sides have been negoiating for several weeks. The offer began at $1 million and then went to $2 million and ended with $2.5 million. Valuev's side made a demand for $4 million. The only way Valuev was willing to take the $2.5 million, is if Klitschko's side kicked in a percentage of the money from the Russian, German and possibly American television.

Vitali is the man!

If the tickets were sold out when it was Wladmir VS Haye, then Haye helped sell it.

It doesn't work like he didn't because he pulled out.

If Wladmir sells well VS Chambers, then that is good, but if he doesn't sell out a 50k stadium, then perhaps Haye was a big hit with the fans over there.

Will you admit that?

WBO, IBF, IBO and The Ring Magazine Heavyweight World Champion Wladimir "Dr. Steelhammer" Klitschko will defend his belts on March 20th against Nr.1 ranked and mandatory challenger "Fast" Eddie Chambers.

The battle will be witnessed by an audience of 50,000 fans in sold out Football Arena of Duesseldorf, Germany

Yup, Haye really helped to sell the fight, Wlad would have never done it on his own

Ofcourse Haye helped sell the fight. Haye was the name on the ticket also.

Well done for selling 50k, Wlad did well.

The way you are talking, it's like Mayweather didn't help Oscar sell 2.4 mill PPV.

You know Haye helped sell the fight.

Keep dreaming, Wlad didn't need Haye to sell 60k against Chagaev who is a big name in Germany too, when he has sold out a 50k arena against little known Eddie Chambers(who is a good fighter but not a big name). You're still deluding yourself.

Changing your tune now, aren't you?

Changing my tune? You typed will you admit if Wlad sells. So I did.

As for Wlad not needing Haye, I didn't say that fool.

I said Haye and him sold 60k. Is it a fact or not?
