    Bull****. Golota's head KO'ed that walkie talkie. Golota was pissed and going to kill Harris.

    Bull****. Jason's power almost KO'ed Golota. Golota was lucky he got pulled away. Harris continued the onslaught and had Golota down. They werent even flush shots from Harris, Golota can count his lucky stars.

    Fight Haye or Adamek and the ratings will pour. If Adamek wins over Arreola, that will create a fair bit of buzz. Theres not much the Klits can do themselves popularity wise. We've already seen everything from them and they still lack a deep fan base in the US.

    lol, That dirty animal came at Golota with a heavy metal weapon, used a cheap shot in the middle of a riot and Golota took it like a man. Face to face that guy would have been decapitated.

    I think that perhaps Wlad should start fighting the heavyhanded clubbing fighters instead of Vitlay, and Vitlay should start fighting the light punching but skilled fighters.

    Seems like the matchups always go the right way for the brothers. An advantage no other heavyweight in history has had.

    Highlight reel KO's that dont come after 35 minutes and 45 seconds of jabs.

    Unfortunately Haye backed out of fighting both Klitschko brothers.

    what does any american poster define as very good ratings ?

    in germany wlad gets an average of 1 in every 7 german population watching his fights

    then you would have to include the numbers from russia/belorussia/baltic states/ukraine/ etc etc , i do not know these but i am guessing they would number in there millions .

    from my limited knowledge of the american rating sytem kelly pavlik has been getting 200,000 to 300,000 ratings a fight and since pavlik /american boxers fights go out when europe and africa is fast asleep , the middle east is just waking up and the far east is tucking into mid day rice or sushi on a sunday, they have very limited marketabilty abroad in this day of PPV

    what kind of ratings do americans think wlad should be poisting in america ?

    It was face to face. Harris was coming off a career best win over the fan man (may he rest in peace) and Golota knew he was up against it. Many make out that Bowe had softened him up but nah, Harris did the job with relative ease. :smoke

    Some quick kos over the top available Heavyweights. Something Tyson and Lewis did.

    The fight was aired in 110 countries and alone in germany watched by nearly 13 million viewers (highest rate in TV in 2010).

    The whole world watched the fight and it seems that the US isn´t the center of the boxing world anymore.

    They are rated , there are plenty on here who reckon they are the best two HWs ever to fight.

    I dont want to slag Wlad off , I repsect his abilities and his commitment but the fact remains the very best guy he ever fought , his greatest ever win is Sam Peter. How can a guy who's best win is Sam Peter be rated above the like of Ali or even Lewis ?

    I accpet its not their fault but the fact its their bad luck doesn't change the fact they are in a shite era !


    but to say they are not rated when there is at least one thread a week about how they are the greatest HWs ever is a bit bizzare !
