Too fucking bad. I wanted to see Haye fight a Klitschko. Oh well, I guess this shall be a good fight. Wlad will demolish Povetkin.

K2 freaking went all out. Sauerland didn't even bother lol.

Monster bid? In 2008 K2 bid $13 mln on Wlad vs Povetkin.

**** you Haye you coward.

This fight has taken too long to happen.

It will be a good one! Povetkin hasn't lost a fight as a pro, and he has the best amateur record of all time at super heavyweight. He's won something like 10 to 12 Gold Medals in international tournaments.

But he has a weakness: an idiot in his corner, Teddy Atlas.

I remember when Teddy yelled like a maniac and distracted Michael Moorer, and then George Foreman landed a big punch and became the oldest HW champion of all time.

“I am very happy that we won the bid. It is always good to control your fights and obtain the TV rights”, says Wladimir Klitschko. “The fight will be shown live on HBO in the US. The US market is very important to me and I have lot of fans there.” Sauerland Promotion was not interested in broadcasting the fight in the US. The fight will be shown in more than 100 countries worldwide.

Great News. The Fight Will Be On HBO!!! C'mon Son.

Povetkin has nothing at all to trouble Wlad. He's about the same as Eddie Chambers. A good boxer but not a great puncher. Wlad will toy with him for 7 rounds then knock him out.

Yeah, I guess Diva Gaye really "tried" to make that fight with Wlad.

This should be a good fight, I am looking forward to it. You have two Olympic gold medalists fighting each other for 3 world titles. Povetkin is undefeated as well. Wlad has been taking fighters "0"s for some time now.

What's amazing though is the quality of his opposition since his comeback from the Brewster loss, from those 12 since his comeback in 2004:

5 undefeated guys
6 world champions
3 Olympic medalists

Combined record of these 12: 345-18-10!!!!!

Wlad's opponents win-loss ratios is amazing. I can't think of one ATG boxer who is surpassing him, I believe a couple of fights ago he was close to Mike Tyson and George Foreman but he has surpassed them now.

Great News. The Fight Will Be On HBO!!! C'mon Son.

I'm very happy to hear that.

All the fights of a living legend like Wladimir Klitschko should be on HBO.
