Talked to Wlad today Me: "any boxing news?" Wlad: 'Nope" Me: "what does it look like, Haye or Povetkin?" Wlad: "I think povetkin" Take it for what it is:good
I know Wlad can't be expected to wait for Haye but it does seem odd that people can accuse Haye of ducking Wlad, when they are still negotiating and a fight with Povetkin is a near certainty. The only question is whether Povetkin will avoid the fight again but Klitschko seems as eager to get that fight on, as the Haye fight. I just think if he wants Haye so much, he shouldn't negotiate with two camps at the same time.
I dont think its actual 'DUCKING" by Haye I just dont think he wants it at this time... but Haye makes the talks tougher then they need to be to force wlad in a different direction thus Haye can save face by saying "We couldnt come to a deal" when all along thats what he (Haye) wanted.
Wlad has no choice. If Haye backs down and out then Wlad must fight Povetkin... why not have the deal ready so if haye says "NO" the Povetkin deal is ready. Its not like Team Povetkin doesnt know wlad is talking to Haye and team Haye doesnt know they are talking to Povetkin... IMO its Haye that is holding everything up
Povetkin is going to give Wladimir an interesting fight I think. I don't think there's any quit in Povetkin, and he's really moving his head under Teddys tutelage, it's going to be interesting seeing him in there against a very fast and powerful superheavyweight. Personally, I think Povetkin could potentially beat Vitali Klitschko, Wladimir is on a level of his own as of right now though. Wladimir TKO12.
Chef call it like it is, hayefaker is a fraud who is afraid to have his supposedly bright future RUINED by Wladimir. Hayefaker knows it, boothfaker knows it, Union Jack knows it, everyone with a half a brain knows it. haye is a pretender, masquerading as a hwt champ. he should join a reality show and be a boxer on that. Boxing is for real fighters, not fakers like haye.
Povetkin has no chance. He got clubbed by Chambers right hands easily, Wlad's jabs and rights will put him to sleep for a ten count. Teddy Atlas will have to salute the Klitschkos. After all, the Klitschkos aren't that good and Teddy Atlas is great, in his own mind. Genius Atlas should be able to train a fighter to beat the Ks right?
There is no real measuring stick as to how Povetkin takes those kind of shots Wladimir dishes out. But I really do believe it'll be a slightly competetive contest, for sure I would pick Povetkin to rip David Haye to shreds.
I think the WBC or whatever alphabet belt Wlad holds ordered negotiations for Wlad and his manditory (povetkin) to have started back on May 17 or something like that. SO you can't get too bent out of shape that Wlad is negotiating with Povetkin. Frankly I think he's doing the best thing possible. He's negotiated with his manditory, which is what he had to do but he's left the door open for the Haye fight because he knows that is the fight that he and the people want.
