We have two Jacks now! The new one is a far better poster, he's probably a true Brit while the old Jack is probably a welfare invader too that once great land.
you mean the same fans that packed the 17,000 SOLD OUT seat arena for vitali's fight and then 2 weeks later filled a 50,000 SOLD OUT seat stadium?.... those fans?:rofl:rofl I see what you mean... seems like the fans are pissedatschatsch
What you don't understand is the effect on boxing as a whole. Whilst those fans may have been happy to see their favourites fight, they would have been much happier if there was a decent undercard or both brothers fought on the same card. **** like this is what kills boxing. Greedy promoters who give nothing to the fans and only serve themselves. In the short term, it works. Look at promoters like Arum or FW. They're rich and successful. However, does that help boxing? Of course it doesn't because even though the Klitschkos sold out the arena for those particular fights, the fans have undoubtedly been ripped off. Maybe they'll come back for three or four more events but eventually, they'll realise they aren't getting value for money. The Klitschkos could do the right thing for the fans. Instead, they choose to make as much money as they can. I can't say I'd do anything different, but lets drop this idea that the Klitschkos are anything different to the likes of the shameful Arum or Frank. Let me ask you a question. What is the best undercard fight a K2 card has ever had?
In what world was Wlad vs. Mormeck a main event fight?! Disgraceful mismatches and nothing on the undercard is what will kill boxing.
Vitali has been trying to get a fight with Lewis for years now. Lewis should get the nerve to fight Vitali or shut up! Lewis is jealous as Hell!
Everytime Lewis speaks, it hurts boxing. No, I don't mean because of his incessant jealousy-fueled bashing of all things Klitschko, but because of the fact that the man is living proof of early-onset dementia brought on by repeated blows to the head and one of the best living cases for banning professional boxing. Shut the **** up, grandpa, or say something positive while you can still piece together mostly-comprehensible sentences and feed yourself with silverware.
But when Haye rips off the fans in the arena AND those that shelled out for a PPV for a 3 round staring contest against Audley Harrison, which was an absolute farce.....that's smart business.
He was forced to retire because his body was not prepared to fight any more. If he had fought again, he would have been shot and fans never, ever want to see shot fighters.
It was a fight Sky demanded, so blame them. I didn't like the fight, I didn't pay to see it and I'd never pay for a similar fight. They're disgraceful and the only way they can be excused is if they have a great undercard.
