    Mark my words. Another almost certain loss could harm the Klitschko brand to an extend which RTL wouldn't approve of. RTL is Europe's largest TV channel by quite a bit and Wlad's contractor for the past decade or more. To my knowledge, he still has to deliver another 2 or 3 fights for them. He will either skip the Fury bout entirely or fight two walkovers and spare Fury for last so RTL can cash in with a still legimitate heavyweight before feeding him to Fury.
    Obviously, losing to Fury twice wouldn't make him non-legitimate but I'm not sure how forgiving the German crowd is and it's just business for RTL after all. I'm afraid he'd lose a lot of appeal if he just got shut out again in another uncompetitive affair.

    Doesn't make any sense. Without belts Wlad is worthless to RTL. Wilder and Martin won't fight him. Fury has to fight him.

    What? That is crazy talk. He's still big in Germany and belts aren't that big a deal. Repeated losses are an actual threat to his popularity. Felix Sturm's viewer count went down considerably when he started struggling against random bums.

    Wlad might as well retire if he doesn't take the Fury rematch.

    Sorry sir, but you are dead wrong in this case.

    They want the rematch to happen. Team Klitschko is banking on it

    They should. But he's surrounded by useless ego-pumping yes men, such as, his entire crew, and Vitali.

    Vitali sounded like the fool he is when he proclaimed it was only a bad night and that they would have taken the rematch immediately.
    It's not his ass that will get beaten in the rematch, so he can make the big mouth.

    Did you see the announcement video of the rematch? Wlad looked and sounded high as a kite on uppers.

    He's definitely gonna enter the rematch believing he's gonna win easily, with all his mental training bull****s, yoga stuff and whatever.

    The brand would be hurt more if he ducked the rematch.

    I doubt team wlad is scared of an fury..
    What they should worry about is getting wladimir mentally ready
    to punch on even if punches dont land right away.
    He has to be mentally prepared to look ike he is on the loosing verge again but continue with ergency till the 12th round. That will give him the win

    Vlad is surrounded by money men he is there paycheck they are desperate to get the gravy train running .watch the fight again Vlad was completely lost fury was still in second gear like a spar .fury has no fear of Vlad now and the bloke is nuts will take Vlad apart .Vlad knows he can't beat fury he is in big trouble.

    Just rewatched Fury Wlad for the 5th time

    Tyson Fury looked special. Wlad looked like a stiff tired robot. I can't wait for this rematch. Fury will KO him if he turns up on form like he did first time around...nothing Wlad can do but hope to land something big early...it doesn't bode well.

    Nope wlad will retire if he lose again against fury. In his contract there is A Clause that he can retire when he wants. He Doesnt have to fullfil all the fight
