    Life is unfair..Wlad was never given chances to shine..


    Real World:

    Wladimir vs Sultan took place at MSG- the mecca of boxing.. Everyone left or booed them.... Wlad was fired from HBO.


    Klittard World:
    NOBODY LOVES WLAD BECAUSE HE DON'T FIGHT MEXICANS OR AMERICANS.

    Real World:
    Wlad has fought more American fighters than any other nationality.
    Wlad's fights all the way up to 2007ish was shown on HBO.


    Welcome to the real world Neal.
    Im not a Klittard.

    If the K-Bros were american they would be very popular. They would be more popular if they were white American than black.

    The heavyweight division isnt great but nowhere near as bad as people like to portray.

    So Wlad had a boring performance. Every fighter does. Hes knocked the vast majority of his opponents out as has Vitali (who is very rarely boring).

    If they were doing this to American or Mexican fighters with any kind of following then they would get far more credit than they do for being euro fighters in europe. Prime example Martinez got massive credit for beating Chavez who is not a great boxer, just big, would casual American audiences care if he beat Golovkin?

    This thread isnt even about the K-Bros.

      The heavyweight division is that bad. It really is. There is young talent that holds promise, but they are not yet proven. Over the last 5-10 years, the division has been horrendous.

        i think it would have looked better had the people below the K-bros fought each other more, and had the two elite fighters of the division fought each other (obvious reasons why they didnt). My first post set out reasons why i thought the division looked worse than it was.

One of them got blasted in Vegas (I think) but the Americans gave him props for standing in and giving an effort!! Where did he go after that?? If his county was to be the "new" geographic boxing headquarters where are all the shows emunating from it?? Theres alot missing from their promotion, to bad they didn't sign "short term"(3 years) with King they would have made alot more money (him too hahahaha) but they would have gotten one hell of an education on how and where to promote!!!

            one of the klits actually said they do not need american promotion and can do fine in europe alone, which they are right..On another note one of the klits also said he planned to do a US tour one more time

            also how many americans are willing to travel abroad to show support for american boxers whether they be black white native etc=0
            europeans travel and show support for the most part..
