Wladimir Klitschko: " My next opponent will be Alexander Povetkin in November"

To all adding that it's a mandatory...I asked him what he likes about the fight...not, why do they have to fight.

Thanks.

 

Povetkin is a very serious man, i'd stake cash that he gives Wladimir a heap of trouble. His style is hard work to figure out.......

 

Actually, considering Povetkin's agressive style, high output and great determination, I like such a match up. Klitschko needs an agressive opponent to make the fight interesting and competetive.

 

He's not going to look to aggressive on the end of WLAD's jab...

 

I hear what you are saying. I'm just stating the Wlad always fights top ten fighters.

 

I think the fact that Povetkin is not a Southpaw will help. Klitschko does not look good against Southpaws. I expect a much more exciting fight.

 

Yeah he has a great chance to beat Wlad. Not! Did you see the Chambers fight when Povetkin was constanly walking into jabs and right straights? Wlad will take his head if he comes forward and trys to pressure Wlad. Wlad hits alot harder than Chambers and look What Povetkins face looked like. Plus he is not a one punch ko artist.

 

Did you forget how good he looked koing Bryd in there second fight?

 

Maybe. That remains to be seen.

 

I'm not just going to say, "Oh WLAD is fighting a mandatory"...he's been fighting shells and bums since Chris Byrd.

As if a fighter never got out of a mandatory, to fight someone the public wanted to see him fight...

The thing is WLAD is happy that his mandatories suck...That IBF eliminator tournament was a sham.

WLAD will fight whoever he picks...you know, guys without a chance like Haye

...and he'll fight who the ABCs pick for him...you know, guys like Povetkin...


...all the while his foolish KLIT-ites, never demanding a challenging matchup.

...oh he has to fight a mandatory, oh this guy (Haye) called him out, oh that guy is a KING fighter, oh big bro is supposedly going to fight him...:barf
...always something with him.

I'm over this guy's sh*t, there is a reason he doesn't consider himself the true champ...as he has said in past interviews.

 

what if vitali gets injured, do any of you guys think wlad would vacate the ibf belt and fight sam peter instead?

 

Who exactly should he fight then, if Povetkin is not a challenge?

 

I don't have all the answers, I just know that there never seems to be anyone threatening available to contend for the worlds title...I guess there are other things HW boxers would rather do than win the belt.

I do know that James Toney would send Povetkin back to the rookie league. I gather that from the Eddie Chambers fight.

 

atsch Povetkin is Wlad's mandatory...............should he just drop the IBF belt because you'd rather see him fight someone else? Think before you post for Heaven's sake.

 

atsch atsch atsch Povetkin would outwork the fat guy..............
