    Lots of germans who wanted to see the fight badly are very angry with Ard
    but it seems the pressure was just too big for them! They worried about their image lol! But something should be done from frank! Cause to pull out of this broadcast after they just announced very proud last weekend that they are going to show the fight which many many germans are excited about!
    They still do their povetkin vs rahman fight! but i think they missed out on huge television ratings with this one

    Yep,i wouldn`t be suprised if delboy-Haye gets called off.I expect Burns-Mitchell to be the main event and allot of pissed off casuals.

    The german President Thomas pütz is basicly just repeating what the klitschkos said that this fight is a freak show! Wouldnt be suprised if klitschkos are more involved in this than we already know!
    And he wants to ban the luxemburg commission lol!
    All these jealous people who just want to be part of the fight need to shut the **** up and try to make money elsewhere!
    No matter what HAye vs chisora has to happen! Just to shut these people up for good!

    Any source for this? Seems odd with the Povetkin fight on the card.

    Ard and sauerland will just do their show with povetkin and rahman in germany on july 14! Somebody put them under massive pressure to not air chisora vs haye! Thats very clear! Everybody was excited for this fight in germany also and sauerland knew that this fight would draw big viewing numbers thats why they announced it in the first place! But someone threatened them to not air this fight
