Comments Thread For: Klitschko-Povetkin: Hryunov Wins, $23 Million Mega Bid!

[Tobi.G]

Great! Maybe Wladimir will not get away now with his unfair leaning, clinching-and holding-tactics. K2 sucks!!

[.:: JSFD26 ::.]

Why would he make such a massive bid, more then 3X K2's bid? There's no way he will make money on this.

That's a $17.25 mil - $5.75 mil split for Vlad

And he's fighter gonna get demolished.

Why would they do this in Vegas? Sure Wlad has been in the states but vs Povetkin I don't think it will do that good (in the US).

Seems totally legit.

All K2 cards involving a Klitschko are sold to 100-125 countries. He should be able to make money on this card.

Moscow has most billioners in the world. I won't be surprised if a rich man, just wants a good night event in Moscow. not matter how much $ they spend.

It wouldn't sell that well in Vegas, probably a lot of tickets would need to be given away to fill up the arena.

This fight belongs in Russia or Germany where they could draw big crowds.

i doubt it happens.

Povetkin 'runs' for 12 rounds and gets the decision.

I'd say that was likely if it wasn't for the fact that the guy is the manager and advisor of Povetkin.

Wlad wins easily regardless of location or who is promoting the fight.
