Here's a question......who'd sell more tickets, the Klitschko's in America or Manny and Floyd in Europe?????
And when it comes to PPV's, it's not even close.
Second of all Germany doesnt carry PPV so thats another thing that doesnt makes sense. When people say PPV for a Klitschko fight, they mean its a foreign country like England and i think Poland, so im not sure what you mean by "its not even close".

Big deal. They are not exciting enough to do it here, so let them be stars in Germany where the biggest thing that matters is their nationality. We have yet to see a HW champion that brings the excitement to boxing Mike Tyson did. Until then, the HW division will be dead. How ironic HBO doesn't even televise these fights anymore.

Not true. At United Center 22k against Briggs 1 and 13k at All State for Briggs 2.
And that's just Chicago.
I don't even know what he does on the east coast.

Name me American Boxers that can sell out even 10k in USA. 1 person? Look at most Devon Alexander, Timothy Bradley, Ward fights, there's like 70 people in the crowd.

LOVE THE KLITHSCKOS, but have to point out something that american sports fans don't really know or understand about European Sports culture. The 'attendance' don't really mean much in that some countries have incredibly low fan friendly prices and it's a tradition to go to the sporting events. Best example is football(the world's most watched sport) or as Americans call it 'soccer'. The La Liga is by far a more famous league with much more famous teams compare to the Bundesliga of Germany. German soccer clubs have a 99% sellout attendance ratio. Everybody heard of Real Madrid and Barcelona, how many people heard of vfb stuttgart? Stuttgart have a much higher sellout ratio then Real Madrid, don't mean anything. It just means German sporting events are much cheaper and fan friendly.
Also 30,000 to 40,000 at a EUROPEAN sporting event is actually quite mediocre. West Ham brings in about 35,000 per match and that team is ****ing bullocks **** to hell bad.
