Klitschko refuses 5 million euro to fight Povetkin

Wladimir Klitschko refused a 5 million euro offer to fight Povetkin.

Apparently Sauerland wanted all rights for the fight, the fight to happen on ARD (Klitschko has a contract with RTL) and the money was by Russian sponsors. Klitschko's management says they agreed to the Thompson fight first. Apparently Sauerland has filed protest against the Thompson fight, claiming that Povetkin has to come first.

Kinda stupid from Sauerland. Why on earth would Wlad agree to their conditions? On top of that I think the more time Povetkin can get, the better.
