SBP bid according to Bild 176 100 EUR for the fight. Sauerland finished second with a bid for 153 079 EUR while Proksa´s promoter Matchroom came in third at 100 001 EUR. Universum, Zbik´s promoter, sent in their bid by fax – something that appears to be against the EBU rules and thus their bid wasn´t recognized.
