    :rofl

    Or because when people heard a Klitchko was fighting a former cruiserwwight champ and they found out it wasn't David Haye no one could be bothered caring.

    We've had adds for the fight on pretty regularly - Gomez screaming at the camera is pretty funny.

    What I wonder is... is this being talked about and is the fight being bagged on because its Klitschko?:blood:think

    What if it was Bhop... just for argument sake.... lets say Bhop wanted to make it so more fans could see his fight....

    Who Bhop be praised or bagged on like Klitschko:think:think

    B-Hops as far as being a Superstar, is almost as worthless as either Klitschko. IF they make Hopkins-Adamek a PPV fight, which is possible, the promotion would lose $$$ as Hopkins fights frightened and cautious.

    Then that was the one wasn't it? Or was it the Sanders fight? All I remember is Vitali's PPV didn't sell.

    120K buys. I knew it was bad, and took a sec of googling to confirm.

    Vitali is a boring man. A boring fighter. And he refuses to unify against Wlad. I'd pay 50 bucks to watch them **** up their family unity.

    was not really my point.... put any name you want( put your fav fighter)... would that guy get praise for putting a fight on ESPN.. or get ripped like Klitschko?

    This is one of the best heavyweight fights that can be made no doubt, but Vitali isnt a superstar and neither is Gomez.

    You guys are gonna hate this, but Haye is probably more well known than Vitali is right now in world boxing....

    If I remember correctly, Williams/Vitali was PPV, Sanders/Vitali wasn't.

    You're right, ****. Maybe they could just sit in the middle of the ring and play "patty-cake" or make some mudpies, and people like you would be happy.
