    Povetkin admitted that he didn´t fight Wlad because of his coach, not because of the money :lol:

    Haye vs Povetkin is better fight in theory, but IRL Wlad vs Chisora is better fight because it actually would happen.

    Wlad vs. Chisora.

    Chisora does not ducked the No. 1 Heavyweight like the two pussies Haye and Povetkin!

    It is a shame of boxing. Sauerland plays games! He did not want the fight Povetkin and Haye against Wlad.

    Haye vs. Povetkin is a 50/50, and much more intriguing fight.

    Chisora is the British Champion, hardly a nobody.

    Beïng British (and Commonwealth) champion doesn't say anything... Even Audley Harrison almost won that title, only problem was he took a cab to the arena but didn't pay the fair so the cabdriver beat him up. :yep
    But he's a reasonable contender, only Haye vs Pov is a pick 'm fight. A lot better.

    :?

    Your posts honestly make me cringe.

    Have to disagree - a novice who has just reached British level, like Chisora, has absolutely
    no business in the ring with a fighter of Wlad's caliber. It's a joke of a fight, even worse than Haye - Harrison - and that's really saying something

    Why are people talking like Haye v Povetkin is definitely going to happen?

    Wlad v Chisora is signed, let's wait until Haye at least signs up against someone before we make threads with the sole purpose of trying to make Haye look better than Wlad.

    Worse than Haye v Harrison? :nut:patsch

    It is a **** fight, but it's an insult to compare it to Haye v Harrison debacle.

    Ok, we disagree. No probs

    On paper it is a worse fight than Haye - Harrison for me. I have no doubts Wlad - Chisora will be better (while it lasts) - but Chisora is even less deserving of a shot at Wlad than Audley was a shot at Haye.

    Of course Haye and Povetkin will be a better fight or at least it should be. Unless either Knocks each other out in the 1st rd. They are both rated very high and majority of the public have it pretty close going either way.

    But being in a potentially close fight all but kills Klitschko's chance of being in a better fight under these terms. With the exception of Chisora, Rahman( late replacement for Povtekin 2 years ago) and a mandatory vs Austin. All Wladimir has done is fight and KO top ten guys and champions ( Byrd,Peter,Ibrag,Chagaev,) with contenders Brock,Thompson, and Chambers. And before all of those fights if asked if the fight were going to be close majority of the public would again have said no.

    I think Wlad had shopped around to fight several other contenders but they all turned it down, thus we end up with Chisora. Haye, and Povetkin we know why. Dimintrenko , Mormeck, Tua turned it down. All I believe monetarily driven. Boystov was hurt and so on. Who else was left besides recycled fighters he already beat .
