    From a Rafael Tweet.
    " More Saturday @HBOboxing viewership figures: Klitschko-Povetkin 534k for live afternoon show, 705k more for prime time replay (1.239M total)"

    Not bad for a 3:30pm fight, up against college football, and more during the replay, which was hrs after all the criticisms and news of the less then spectacular match

    Chisora couldn't beat a 42 year old Vitali with one arm and has lost every time he stepped up. He is British Level at best. He needs to stick to fighting Glass Jawed David Price and Audley Harrison.

    They knocked the Nordic Nightmare off top spot without losing and replaced him with Boytsov who done absolutey nothing so Wlad can have an easy fight disguised as a mando. Can't you see how corrupt K2 are?

    I'm not sure you have any idea how unfunny you are.

    Fight Haye for a sum that will set him up for life in a winnable fight or fight Wlad for a fraction of the money in a fight he's far more likely to lose. Hmmmm, tough one.

    I wonder how many of them will never watch either fighter again.

    I don't disagree. The Haye fight is eminently winnable for Fury if he fights to his strengths ...

    BUT

    would Fury not bring a bit more to the table than the average Wlad voluntary defence in terms of PR & (self) promotion and quite possibly PPV in the UK?

    Surely that would quadruple the meagre K2 contract and earn Fury closer to £2 million than 475k?

    That, coupled with multiple belts, a chance to be THE man AND **** Haye over for £5million might be quite appealing to all concerned?

    If the December fight happens I'd bet it's Jennings or Boytsov, an easier task. Solis has a slight chance.

    Other than that there is no reason to postpone the Pulev mandatory matchup. Better to take it soon and clear the path.

    Yes. Some people close to Wlad say he won't be fighting again until spring, so Adamek is a possibility.

    Adamek would be a good choice. The fight would bring money in Poland and he's a Ring-ranked contender Wlad hasn't fought before.

    But I'm not sure Adamek will beat Glazkov.

    Adamek has never been that good at heavy. He arguably lost to Cunningham and looked terrible against a soft punching one armed Eddie Chambers.

    :lol::lol::lol::lol::lol::lol:

    You Gullible Brits would buy up a Wlad-Fury fight on PPV like it was the last toothbrush in all of the UK.

    You mean to tell me you people buy David Haye's boring fights but you won't buy a Fury fight for THE Heavyweight Championship?

    You aren't fooling anyone crooked teeth meth mouth. You Brits are the most gullible ******s on the planet when it comes to stuff like this.

    Fury could make the same or more with PPV behind a Wlad fight.
