Stiverne - Arreola

Areola is really putting the work in this time around. I heard he's dropped an entire cupsize.

 

I bet that gives them extra motivation. It's always nice to know you're getting an easy title defense once you've earned the belt :good

 

I am not so sure about this anymore Fat Dan is saying Wlad might fight the winner in late August or early September.......I wouldn't rule out the WBC allowing this it is all about the $$$$$ with them and a Klitschko fight brings in huge money.

 

:nut

His ratings on ESPN were a disaster and he can't feature regularly on HBO. Only 2 times in his last 10 fights

Klitchko is not a draw. You live in a dream world.

 

KlitschKO brings the money! That's why anyone wants to fight him.

 

Still Don King it is a Co-promotion with Goosen Tudor (Arreola) they were able to work it out so no need to go to purse bid.

 

Is that why he refused to fight Haye unless he got a cut of Haye's Sky PPV earnings

 

how is the winner gonna fight wilder for sure. there sum politics involved here. and stiverne would deserve a rematch wouldnt he if he loses? arreola go one so should stiverne

also if stiverne wins again who wants to buisness with don king. gbp aint stupid

 

Brittard why do you care about his ratings on ESPN ? You live in that rainy craphole called UK, do you even understand , his fight on ESPN was around 5 - 6 pm. Wlad vs Arreola in US would do better numbers , than Ward vs froch, or pretty much ward with anybody, also better than Hopkins with pretty much anybody. If he's not a draw how come he's always been third best paid fighter in the world, right now he's possibly second best paid .Alex Leapai made 1.5 million against "not a draw" . You're brittarded.

 

Stiverne beats the sh** out of Tubby even worse this time and stops him.

 

Modernfonzie, who you got?

 

I know that's why he's making around 24 mil per year and for some weird reason I can't find Haye on that list. Btw if Wlad was british , he'd be 3rd or 2nd best paid british athlete, but you're right he's "not a draw"

 

What an interesting definition of the word draw. The man sells out stadiums fighting Alex Leapai in Germany.


As far as Arreola and motivation, for a fighter going for the heavyweight championship he sure lacks motivation a lot. It was his excuse when Adamek beat him.

One drawback of Stiverne is the man fights so rarely. This is his 4th fight in the 3 years and the only 50/50ish fight in that time was...Arreola a year ago.

 

He only made that one year and it was because some crazy Russian billionaire paid 23m to host the Povetkin fight.

 

That was not a sell out despite what the k-tards will have people believe.

It was just a 12,000 seater and little less than half was on still on sale fight week.

It was selling so badly , K2 called up Briggs to come over and stir up some interest.

They probably gave the rest away for free like they did with the Thompson rematch in Switzerland
