Did Povetkin loose his spot?

this

 

And just yesterday I made a comment about IBF looking to be the organisation who tries to clean up all the crap... guess I was wrong

 

Correct.

After Wlad blasts chambers he is to fight Povetkin.... I wouldnt be suprised if Povetkin backs out again.. if he does, its time for him to lose the #1 spot IMO

 

His injury pushed him back, that's normal. Ward was in the same situation recently with an injury that required surgery and everyone thought he's done or just forgot him completely. Look how he's looked at now.

I think Povetkin has a great chance of giving both Wladimir and Haye hell.

 

i really dont think so! povetkin hasnt enough power!

 

I hope the IBF stripped Povetkin off spot 1, if he pulls out again. Povetkin has no chance against Wlad and Povetkin knows this.

 

Maybe Povetkin wants some more time training with Atlas.

 

Titty At-l-ASS sure helped Micheal Grant!

Titty is a Klitschko hater! Vlad will beat Chambers, even though Chambers is with Balco!

 

That dude needs to fight for the title this year or go to back of the line!!!
He's been #1 contender for 2 years!!!
Even Slow Chambers got ahead of him!!!
Damn!!!

 

Maybe the fight is an interim title eliminator.
The winner fights Povetkin for the interim title

 

I thought Povetkin was going to face Wlad after the Chambers fight. He has sat on his ranking for a while but that is a smart thing for him. He was never ready for Wlad when he got that spot. By waiting Povetkin is going to accomplish several things. One Wlad is only going to get older, right now Wlad is on a roll and looks very tough to beat but he is probably past his physical peak. Two, Wlad is coming off an injury and a longer than normal layoff, its possible that can have some impact on Wlad. Third, Povetkin needs time to work with Atlas, the more the better. Wlad would have walked through Povetkin if they fought when they were first scheduled. Now, if Povetkin and Atlas gell together , he could be a threat to Wlad.
