    Povetkin has already dropped out against Wlad 3 separate times. Wlad's not going to give him the time of day and with good reason - Povetkin will never get in the ring with him.

    Helenius is too green. Most of the top contenders are just waiting for the Klitchko's to retire, quite frankly. It's a holding pattern 'til then.

    Pretty sure McCline was in the top 50 (probably higher) when Arreola fought him. Travis Walker and Chazz Witherspoon too.

    He should wait to see who wins and fight any of Chagaev, Helenius, Lyakovich or Povetkin. Even the loser of those two fights is better, and would destroy, Wach but obviously the most impressive winner would be the best choice.

    The division is weak, yes. All four of those names are poor choices but they are the best choice. Nobody can match Wlad but he should try to fight the best available. Wach is not the best available.

    Like I said though, nobody can criticise Wlad yet. It's not signed do he shouldn't be criticised. However, I, like all boxing fans, should be hoping it doesn't happen.

    Haye would get beaten again, yes, but he's a better choice. Chambers would be beaten again but he's better than Wach. Pretty much every recent opponent, including shot Rahman, would beat Wach.

    I have to agree (somewhat) with Jack for once. It's true the division is almost cleaned up, but I rather see Wlad against Dimitrenko or Mormeck than Wach, Wach hasn't beaten a decent fighter in all his career.

    LOL Bente just said that Klitschkos never offered Wasch a fight. They want him to beat a few more big names and establish himself more.

    /end thread.

    That's interesting.....the news came from Wach's camp.
    It was even posted on his promotional company website.
    According to Wach's camp, Finkel asked if they would be
    interested in a November fight, if Wladimir's #1 option (I'm
    guessing this is Arreola) doesn't work out.

    But, you are correct. According to Dan Rafael, Boente said
    they aren't looking at Wach.

    Well, looks like Wladimir is not fighting Wach after all. So Jack made a fool of himself (Again) for nothing.........
