Booth and kilts manager on ringside now

Brilliant interviews here.

I have to say I believe that the Klitschko's and Boente are right here. At the end of the day, they want a complete 50/50 split because Haye gets more money from pay per view over here (mainly due to a dumb general public who pay for crap like Haye v Harrison) whereas over in Germany they'd never pay for such a thing.

It's all frustrating boxing politics but the bottom line is that this fight will happen next year sometime that's pretty much guaranteed in my opinion. I just don't wanna see any more ridiculous mismatchs like Haye v Harrison and Klitschko v Chisora/Briggs in the mean time. Just get the bloody fight on now!

 

Considering the money both would rake in, 50-50 for everything is as fair as you can get.

Told ya man, see how Booth made a point of saying they primarily wanted Wladimir first?

 

Booth gurning away like a maniac - the German's point about the third Sauerland fight commitment definitely landed.

 

I love how Sky have seperated themselves from last week's farce as well. Smith, Nelson and McCrory seemed genuinely pissed off at how bad a 'fight' is was.. yet a week ago they were bigging it up.

 

all parties should agree to give up their titles and fight for the Ring title if excuses are going to get made about sanctioning bodies and mandatories etc.

**** the belts!

 

Agreed, its ****ing ridiculous this is even an issue, its perfectly fair. I dont see the problem with a Klitschko getting half the UK money either, they'll play a big part in the marketing and their name alone will bring in a load of buys against a Brit.

 

Agreed but it's just another case of what should happen in boxing. Fans and the media should laugh at any boxer or promoter that says "oo we can't fight the proper champion because we have to fight Ruslan Chagaev" or "no we can't fight the best contender out there because Ray Austin is apparently our mandatory challenger". It's pathetic yet fans and media like Sky and HBO in America lap it up and don't do anything about it!

 

Yeah but it also seems like the klits camp arent too keen on letting haye in with wladimir neither.

its just what you'd expect from both sides i think i have a feeling it'll be wlad

 

Got to give it to Sky, they do get the big names on their show. After that both parties will have little crediibility if they don't make the fight now. Any1 else notice that Booth was feeding questions to Smith and Nelson at the end? I would like to have seen Big Glen's reaction live on Saturday, I can see him ripping Harrison apart.

 

I just thought it was one of the producers voices or something, hilarious if it was Booth.

 

Watch it again and you can definetly hear Booths voice telling them the questions to ask right at the end.

 

To be honest, it was a brilliant 10 minutes or so. Very reminiscent of the Buncey's old Boxing Hour.
