Why don't the KO Bro's ever fight on the same card?

    Just a thought, since they always can draw huge crowds overseas if just one Klitschko is the main event. So I figure if both fought on the same card it would probably be a pretty big mega event over there.

    I mean I guess Vitali, & Wlad on the same card is as close as we'll get to them fighting each other so why not, for a more interesting night of heavyweight (title) fights.

    If anyone gives a crap, share your thoughts on this.

    They fill out stadiums easily, so both on the same event will not generate as much money as both fighting seperately...whilst filling two stadiums.

    They did box on the same card when Wlad lost to Purrity in Kiev, Ukraine.

    Very true.

    But I figured that. I also thought they could stage it somewhere (soccer stadium etc) once in awhile just for a crazy mega event, cause I figured it would make Heavyweights alot more interesting (for one event at least) if they did something like once in awhile with them.

    Eh maybe it's more pain in the ass than its worth since they do generate alot by themselves.

    Possibly...maybe for Vitali's last bout, or whenever Haye steps up. Have one Klitschko facing Haye, and the other facing someone else...and IF Haye were to win...it would make that bout a lot bigger.

    Yeah, take the word of David Haye and Don King as "everyone", they're real honest businessmen :roll:

    Wladimir against Haye (Gaye) and Vitali against Lennox (cmon grow some balls) on ONE NIGHT.

    Now that would be an EVENT!

    I suspect that Vitali's last fight will be on the same card as Wlad vs. Next Victim.

    I think that is why he is looking for an opponent anyone has heard of.

    Maybe something like Wlad vs. Peter on a card with Vitali vs. Valuev/Holyfield

    It doesn’t make financial sense to fight in same card.

    This, the bros always bring in huge draws. If they fight on different cards they'll bring in more money.
