    Teddy Atlas just announced on FNF that a match has been scheduled, for I believe he said Aug.27 for the vacant regular WBA belt. And also that he would not be able to accompany or train Povetkin due to his prior obligation of broadcasting FNF's.. Does this guy do anything right.

    lol and in the only real fight Povetkin has had since he's been his trainer. Puts him in fights vs bums then leaves when he's facing a top 5 HW :lol:

    I love the Povetkin Chag matchup and Liak may give Helenious a tough test, as well.

    Great night of boxing.

    I am picking Chag for the decision win.

    Guess he'd just rather hear himself talk.

    In all seriousness, later during FNF he spoke about Klitschko again and started pointing out all his weaknesses and vulnerability's and his opponents even greater ones. Yet in almost 2 and a half years and mandatory's waiting he couldn't do his job and teach Povetkin how to exploit them .

    Wlad could walk on water, and Atlas would reply, *What? You mean this guy can't swim?*

    Atlas has serious hater issues with both Klitschko's. Yeah according to him, they're this and that, do this wrong and that wrong, but yet he wouldn't stick his fighter in the ring with Wlad. :lol:

    I'll take Povetkin. Neither have been very impressive as of late, but Chagaev's slight struggle with Meehan and then a very close contest with Walker has me giving the edge to Pov.

    Povetkin really shines in this one.
