    The winner will be seen as a legitimate test for the real champion Tyson Fury.

      Gonna go to bid I guess.

      No idea what he means by big event, but I imagine a PPV mixed with his guys and Haymon guys

        Haymon should go ahead and make this a big event (Showtime or PPV) or expect to lose this fight to a purse bid.

            The problem is all that..... "scared" and "coward", rubbish.

            For some reason, it seems to be human nature to project.

                Povetkin got billionaires behind his team. I'm just wondering if they can just make it in Brooklyn instead of in Russia

                  If Haymon does win... I'd imagine it's already 8 digits... so they'll probably do a PPV, or not... they got money to burn.

                  All I know i they better actually promote this fight instead of just being all meh

                    Yes. They outbid the Klitschko team by a ton. I think they put down 23 million. They can probably outbid Haymon if they want to. But Wilder isn't nearly the star Klitschko is overseas, so they may not want to.

                      Good news. I think Wilder is a brutal knockout waiting to happen, not sure Pov is the guy though.
