Paper champ? Stiverne KO'd Arreola in 6, a feat Vitali Klitschko couldn't achieve.
The only fraud is Wladimir Klitschko to the heavyweight title. If he was exciting like Golovkin he could have gotten somewhere, sold 2 million PPV's yearly at the MGM Grand bringing in 50+ million a year like Tyson. Instead he fights in placed like Bern in Switzerland which has a population of 125,000. People can't wait for him to retire.
When the ring Heavyweight titleholder isn't making at least 50 million bucks a year, IMO he's the paper champ. Lewis was making 25 mill a fight when he was fighting, now Wladimir is making pennies compared to that. His purse against Povetkin was his biggest by far.Last edited by KO'er; 05-11-2014, 12:38 AM.

This is the most asinine thing in the world.
1. The WBC is an organization out of Mexico so this plea to keep the belt in America like it belongs to us or is instilled to us is idiotic.
2. I find it funny you leave out Wlad's victory over Povetkin last year when he completely embarrassed the #2 ranked HW in the world at the time. So stop with the bum BS already.
3. Implying Klitschko doesn't want to fight or won't is laughable. For years both him and his bother having been hoping for a top American HW to challenge so they could come fight here.
4. This thread is exactly what is wrong with boxing today. People are not only blinded by the paper championships, but are starting to embrace it like the TS has here. This is a complete joke, you are calling for someone to blatantly avoid THE champ at HW for what? So they can get fights in America? That's complete BS. What happened to wanting fighters to fight the best and challenge themselves.
TS is an absolute embarrassment to this sport and everything it is/used to be. What a ****ing joke...
