    I'd like to know how much the tickets cost, in the equivalent of US dollars.

    Most of the tickets are pretty cheap. At those prices plenty of fights could post big numbers.

    Interesting, I didn't know that. I had read stats that gave the seated capacity at 53,994, and a seated and standing capacity of 61,524. However, looking at that now I suppose that is for soccer, which is a huge playing area compared to what is needed for boxing (hence more seats available for boxing).

    that's correct. For some reason off the top of my head I thought it was 51k, but you are correct, 61k for Wlad-Chagaev.

    Yes, that's the capacity for football matches. Football arenas need to implement very strict security measures imposed by the football associations to ensure safety, to avoid violent clashes between the supporters of the teams. This limits the potential capacity and for other events it's not as strict and as you said they can additionally use the field.

    That's right.

    Haye wants nothing to do with either Klitschko, especially Vitali. Ditto on Valuev and both Haye's and Valuev's management.

    Nobody wants to fight the Klitschkos, especially Vitali. And why would they? The guy freaking retired Lennox Lewis and annihilated would-be saviors like Sam Peter or Chris Arreola.

    Nobody can touch Vitali right now, even at 38 years old. He seems to have the injury issues behind him and is as close to an unstoppable force that the sport has seen in a very long time.

    If you fight him, you almost certainly will lose and are likely to be knocked out for your trouble.

    Much better choice to just wait until Vitali decides to hang them up.

    The only guys who want anything to do with Vitali now are people who need money or need exposure and aren't afraid to suffer an "L" to get these things.

    Props to Sosnowski for showing some guts here.

    It's not Vitali's fault that the rest of the division craps the bed anytime he shows up or is mentioned.
