    It's interesting because Povetkin is a come foward aggressive fighter and he's going to get knocked the **** out.

    Okay, so you rather have him sit on his titles and do nothing to get future fights, rather than fight a top contender? And you wouldn't mind that that would get him stripped, after we finally have a unification for the first time in 5 years?

    Since Wlad is regarded as the number one fighter in the world, few people are going to pick against him :lol: I guess Tyson should never have fought after Berbick since he was always the favorite, same with Lennox.

    No point fighting the number one contender when you're the favorite, better to just sit on your ass then get in there and stay busy...

    Nope, i favor Klitschko, but Povetkin has good credentials and is the live underdog.

    The guy's an idiot. He would critisize Wlad if he didn't fight, and make fun of him FOR fighting Povetkin like he is now.

    I'm far from a Wlad fan as well, most of the Wlad huggers here would probably tell you that. But Klitschko deserves credit for staying active and fighting the best.

    Wlad is doing the right think in fighting his mandatories. We don´t want him stripped of belts, cause we want unification. This means at the end of the year, Wlad will have fought 1 unification fight and 2 mandatories in one year, which has to be a good job.

    Provided he beats Povetkin, he´ll be free to try and get a unification in his next match.

    I used to consider you intelligent, but how you got that from the post you quoted I have no idea...

    again...in the very begining I said I don't have a big problem with Povetkin, other than he has no chance. Fight him, get it out of the way as you say, retain the belt....

    ...but before he even fights Povetkin, he should tell Haye to f*ck off, and enter into negotiations for who he will fight after povetkin, now It would no be the first time a fighter looked ahead to a fight.

    Haye is as much of a gift as Povetkin, accept instead of the International Bum Federation doing it, WLAD is choosing him on his own.

    Klitschko will lay his ass out. It wont be pretty but it will happen. And even if u dnt like Wlad at least give him credit for fighting his mandatories and taking on everybody.

    Sick indeed, the guy is just very very good and I can't believe that some take this as a crappy or "Easy" fight unless they're idiotic Wladimir haters looking for anything to make it look bad.

    Povetkin will be one of the best Wladimir fought and if he wins this then it's one hell of an accomplishment because I just can't see him winning it to be honest. If Peter's aggressive style looked to trouble Wlad and make him look bad then expect A LOT more from a far more experienced Povetkin, for one thing Peter didn't even know how to cut off the ring well enough against Wladimir, Povetkin knows how to do that perfectly well. If he takes Wladimir's right hands early without being troubled much then he has this fight in the bag by late TKO, if he can't handle it then he'll be taken out and he SHOULD do something about them by either moving his head or blocking them now and then, taking such vicious right hands would most likely finish him off. Hope he fights on the inside whenever Wladimir looks to jab and grab, which he will and A LOT.

    I see Povetkin coming fully prepared for everything Wladimir will plan to do which is very much predictable but too strong to handle, if he comes prepared for them and handles them then he wins, as I see him doing.

    I'm a fan of Haye but he needs to do something to earn a shot, at least 1 or 2 major wins before talking big. Povetkin earned his shot and if Wladimir doesn't accept it then the IBF title is taken off and that's not the unification step Wladimir is looking to take.

    Bull****, BOTH Valuev and Peter are hooked with fights, how the hell is he going to fight them exactly when his mandatory is ready to get a shot he earned?, stop making up rubbish please.

    I'm getting used to the ritual of the KLIT-ite building up the competition, in the face of those who don't even root for KLIT saying "This isn't the guy to do it." Why do you have to make believe it's going to be tough.

    If Peter troubled him, then Povetkin will trouble him more...??? I doubt it.

    It's not hate...is WLAD looking at Haye or not...??? The mandatory is so tough that WLAD is already looking ahead to Haye.

    ...just sick of it. Go ask Chef, he's looking at Haye. :barf

    Povetkin does better than Haye though.
