Disagree no one would have cared if the fight took place outside of the US. Look at Rahman's victory over Lennox Lewis in Africa. No one gave a crap. And I'm willing to bet that they would have used some cheap excuse like drugging for Barrera's lost. Is there an echo here. I know all about it. HBO didn't want Wladimer fighting a fighter whose exactly like Sultan Ibragimov. Like I said smart move by HBO. No one should ever relive that horrible fight ever again.
Amazing how much the tide has changed. This the the ***** that Haye needs to damage Wlad's rep after looking so bad PR wise himself for the last 2 years.
I've said it before and I'll say it again. The best location for Haye - Wlad is Amsterdam. Right between the UK and Germany, all the fans can make that trip no matter where they're from. Fighting in Vegas would be a crime to both their fans.
A HW glamour fight to unify 3 of the major belts will sell big in the US with decent marketing.... you have to be ignorant to think it wont
