Why is Wlad facing Haye in June instead of Povetkin?

I don't give Haye much chance but this is just my opinion. I'll be very happy to see Haye Povetkin fight one day. Than we can see who is the real deal and who attracts cash by being Englishman and having a big mouth.

 

I see the Haye fight being interesting for a few rounds...........then if he doesnt get the big man out, klit will just pound him with his jab for a very boring fight. Once Haye cant knock him out or get to him........he has no game plan for anything else.

 

Povetkin would get KTFO by Haye. Haye is in another league. Good win against chambers but the guy has no star quality.

 

money, and respect..haye looks better on the resume than Povetkin..Povetkin can wait until november

 

Personally, I would have loved to have seen Haye fight Povetkin or Arreola before taking on Wladimir.

 

After Povetkin hurt his foot, he wanted a tuneup before a Wlad fight.

So Povetkin is the reason why Povetkin not fighting Wlad next.

 

Povetkin is a mandatory. Wlad will be facing him in Sept/Oct or Nov of this year for sure. (Ibf is 9-11 months between mandatories)

 

Very good post:good

 

That was an IBF mandatory as well due to Brewster's top ranking at the time.

The unification fight against Ibragimov counts as a WBO mandatory.

His last voluntary defense was against Calvin Brock in November of 2006.

 

The Haye fight is bigger, Klitschko will probably fight Povetkin later this year.

 

because if he doesn't fight Haye, is called for ducking

 

No, Vlad does not have to fight Haye, he just wants that fight. Povetkin had an injury and needed a tuneup before he gets beated by Vlad.

 

David Haye has talked too much smack..... Let him get whacked in June so we can move onward to the following Klitschko victim--Al Povetkin... Both "Haye & Povetkin" will be fodder for Wlad Klit.... Peace...
