You'll have to do better than that.

The Byrd statement goes back to 2000.

An unbiased russian boxing site...

The media in russia still wantīs the people to believe that the Klitschkos are ducking Povetkin

Below is a list of boxers who have had trouble negotiating with the Klitschkos:

Tua - "Lowball offer"
[Only registered and activated users can see links. ]

Toney - "Chump Change"
[Only registered and activated users can see links. ]

Dimitrenko - "Mutual benificial terms, not those being offered by K2"
[Only registered and activated users can see links. ]

Adamek - "The Klitschko brothers offer their opponents little money. If they want to fight me and offer the right amount of money, I will fight them."
[Only registered and activated users can see links. ]

Lennox Lewis -
[Only registered and activated users can see links. ]
Lewis: At one time, we tried to make this fight and his promoter was lying to the Klitschko brothers and overpriced himself trying to get extra money. I feel good and confident about the fight and I am ready to go.

Maybe they learned from an old promoter eh?

Mormeck - asking for "too much money" -
[Only registered and activated users can see links. ]

Haye - "contract an utter joke"
[Only registered and activated users can see links. ]

Povetkin - "Slave Contract"
[Only registered and activated users can see links. ]

Valuev - "Conditions which were offered by Vitali which didn't satisfy my promoters or me"
[Only registered and activated users can see links. ]

Chisora - signing a 3 fight deal he was "told to keep silent about"
[Only registered and activated users can see links. ]

Byrd - "This is crazy"
[Only registered and activated users can see links. ]

Replace the * with the scene to view link.

So are they cowards? Should they be grateful? Are they fools for passing up a great opportunity?
Or are they looking at the K2 contracts and thinking "Is this a joke?".

Discuss.

*Edited to add Chris Byrd.
Wow, this whole time I thought the "top" Heavyweights were genually afraid to fight the Klitschkos.

Now I find out that they try to fuck everyone over with loaded contracts.

I suppose they will soon add a "we get to have a three-way with your mother while pouring sugar down your gas tank" clause.

Well, if you want to be strictly fair...

how about a comparison of complaints about Klit contracts with the contracts of other promoters?

how about a comparison of terms in general?

Do you really think you would end up convincing anyone that the Klits are worse than Don King, or even Golden Boy? Actually, the question would become: which of the big promoters are the Klits demonstrably worse than?

Do your own homework if you can't answer the charges with facts of your own.


Have you noticed how many times Haye has had to rematch Valuev?
