      I went all in on Mayweather/Hatton, got some good odds for Pavlik/Hopkins and Cotto/Margarito and have been quick to bank my points. Since the interest got quadrupled, they've been growing like crazy.

      Plus I did a couple of photoshop jobs for points way back.

          He would shock me by lasting more than 6 rounds.

            Vitali denied Valuev a percentage of the gate which is absolute Bull**** because Valuev has been drawing large crowds in Germany for the last 5 years now. The Klitschko sisters only face bums who will fight for peanuts, which is why their opposition is mostly garbage.
            You're being ridiculous. For someone coming off a loss, with no title, the $2.5 million offer was very generous and far exceeds what Valuev can earn against anyone else.

              2.5 million is crap if the fight generates 20 million and Vitali runs off with 18 million.

              All Valuev wanted was 40%. Thats it. But Team Klitschko was hellbent on keeping it all and leaving Valuev the crumbs from the table.

              Because of Valuevs size, he draws crowds regardless of who he is fighting. For Vitali to screw him on the split in Germany of all places is not right, and a convenient way to duck a taller opponent.

                He hasn't earned as much as $2.5 million for one fight before. So you're talking bull.

                  When you bank your points, they collect interest. They actually double after a time.

                    How much is Sosnowski getting paid for this fight?

                      If you have the numbers, I'll be happy to look over them. But Vitali is the only one talking bull here....

                      Vitali/Valuev would be the biggest Heavyweight fight ever in terms of size. Two popular Giants in the ring would do big numbers and probably would be the biggest payday for Vitali as well.

                      Both guys are beloved in Germany, and I believe Valuev was entitled to at least a 40% split.
