This just goes to show how big the Klitschkos are in Europe.

Yes, and it's partly because the media in Europe is not unfairly negative about them.

The fight will take place in a city not too far from the border with France, so no doubt there will be some Mormeck fans in attendance.

No, mainly because they are not promoted by Top Rank or Golden Boy, and not managed by Al Haymon. And the top people at HBO and Showtime don't seem to like good European boxers.

It will be telecast in over 100 countries in the world: UK (BoxNation), Hungary, Ukraine, Germany (RTL), Poland (PolSat), Romania (SportRo), US (EPIX), Russia, etc.
