I'd say double that would be about right for the HEAVYWEIGHT CHAMP against the young up and coming top contender. He needs a couple more fights, a bit more exposure to make it that big though.
I´m still waiting to hear this story is an April fool´s day joke. It makes no sense to be complaining to the IBF about Wlad fighting Thompson, since he became mandatory many months ahead of Povetkin and has sat on the bench for 2 WBO title fights while he was mandatory as well. We also really don´t need to split the titles just when they´ve been unified.
