Povetkin ducks Wladimir yet again

[Hitman932]

He should.....but he probably wont.

If Haye did jump at this it would be to secure Povetkin as an opponent for his next title defense.

Two cowards of the same feather flock together. As the old saying goes..

[Porter's Dad]

Haye and Povetkin blatantly ducking Wlad just shows how dominant he is right now. It's a compliment.

[boxingchef]

povetkin is out and peter is in for september 11 2010.

Official confirmation will soon follow


povetkin

true!!!!!!

[The Hammer]

It's true.

Klitschko's camp received a letter from the IBF this afternoon, confirming they have dropped Povetkin from his mandatory position, because he failed to sign the contract within the 15 day period according to IBF regulations.

Not surprised one bit!!! I was even jumping on boente yesterday for jumping on povetkin not attending the presser.... I knew Povetkin doesnt want the fight.

Considering how gay the moderators have been in here lately I fully expect this thread to get locked until there is "offical confirmation".

Thats why I didnt announce it here. I did on another site. Last time I gave inside info, my thread was changed and then locked

but my inside info... its TRUE!!

inside info...

and the IBF rankings are a joke
Sam Peter number 2 ? gosh

[Boxing Scene]

Removing Povetkin from mandatory doesn't mean Sam Peter is officially in for September 11th does it? Would the IBF remove Povetkin and immediately replace Sam Peter on 3 month notice without any contracts being signed or negotiated?

[paulf]

Removing Povetkin from mandatory doesn't mean Sam Peter is officially in for September 11th does it? We just need clarification as such before we post.

No, but now it's up to Wlad. I really wish Adamek had been the #2. ****ing hell, I don't want to spend money on a PPV with Sam Peter in it. Id rather watch him fight ****ing Boytsov.

[Grimmer]

Wlad and Vitali are now both available with no obligations to fight a specific opponent.

Man up Haye, take one of them.

There's 4 fights I was looking forward to later this year:

Floyd v Pacman
Bradley v Alexander
Ward v Dirrell
Klitschko v Haye

It pisses me off that only one is coming into fruition so far.

Haye v Klitschko would at least make the next half of the year pretty decent for boxing, if not it's gonna be pretty dull and shameful to the sport that only one of these 4 exciting fights is going to happen this year despite the fact that 3 of them have been touted since the beginning of last year (well, Floyd v Pac and Haye v Klit at least).
