What Would It Take For Either Klitchko To Get Ratings?

Vitali-Arreola sold out Staples Center and gave HBO it's best ratings in 2009. Obviously the best rating for HBO is still a tiny litte number compared to what the bros produce in Europe.

I even dare to say that the Klitschkos, the two of them produced better overall ratings in the smaller German market alone than HBO in it's ENTIRE 2009 calendar.

 

That they are big in Germany may have something to do with these facts:

- They speak German (both K's speak 4 languages) and lived here for many years
- They are broadcasted for FREE (the PPV market is almost extinct in Germany)
- They are gentelmen boxers, who show respect for their opponents, with academic background and education
- They promote themselves with funny commercials and stuff
- But lst not least, they come in shape and deliver the TKO.

A sport event which is comparable to the TV quotes of the Klitschkos in Germany could be the US Super Bowl. Imagine that - HW boxing as mainstream as American Football?
