    Washed up from what? He beat Chambers, was top ranked heavy, and Atlas ****ed him up a bit. He's not washed up, has not taken bad beatings or shown signs of getting old.

    I'd question Povetkin's motivation in his last few fights, as he has been fighting people levels below him.

    If he can perform as he was doing 18 months ago, then he is going to give Haye a lot of problems. Haye doesn't throw many punches and Povetkin doesn't stop throwing them. The second half of the fight could be very interesting. Haye's keeps saying he no longer has stamina issues. That will be truly tested in this fight.

    I hate to say it because I was hoping that Atlas would help him- but Atlas seems to ahve him throwing fewer punches, negating the thing that he does best.
