    Tuscaloosa beer truck driver vs fat Haitian tractor driver, that's 4,000 tickets more than I expected.

    I'm not so sure about that. General name recognition, sure that has improved. But I just don't see the people who read the celeb magazines and websites as the same people who are buying tickets to Wlad-Jennings. I could be wrong, but I don't see it.

    Wlads fame is nothing to boast about. He has drained all enthusiasm out of the division for a decade.

    I can't be the only one that remembers wlads last 'fight' at the garden...?

    I think a small % will be there.
    I think Wlads KOs over Leapai(ESPN) and Pulev boosted his marketability state side.
    And hey, he is fighting and undefeated American who is actually a legitimate contender and has fought on big stages twice before.

    All of a sudden now the U.S. doesn't hate the Klitschkos because they're white. Isn't that the general consensus among Klitsch fans on this forum.
