    What on earth happened to this? Ok so his opposition in these videos isn't great but wtf!?!? Here he has speed, power, precision and combination.


    The potential of this guy was something else but at 31 now he is done he can't come back that's too old to change his ways.

    :patsch

    Think Haye should have done everything possible to get a fight with Povetkin now, his confidence is low, he's ready to be beat. In a couple of years though he will bounce back.

    I would be curious to see him vs Adamek and Haye. But it seems he wants no part of anyone with a serious pulse so far. It seems like he lost 'the urge' after an even fight with Chambers.

    There was a rumour that he's going to represent Russia in the Olympics, anyone knows what about that?

    Pretty much.

    Team Povetkin has no intentions of ever facing the Klitschkos and is waiting for them to retire or vacate their belts.

    No fighting spirit, balls or desire.

    I would of sued and beat Atlas's ass if he pulled me from a world title fight, but no, Povetkin is intent at being a contender until the real champs retire.

    Yep, after such a promising start is all gone wrong hasn't it?

    I'm not sure if we can level all the critisism at Atlas. If Povetkin isn't happy he can cut ties with Atlas - and nobody forced him to do this. I honestly don't think he features much at all going forward, even after the Klitschkos retire. I wouldn't be shocked if he is beaten by a low level fighter in some marking time fight and he loses interest in his career altogether.

    Povetkin was mediocre to begin with.
