Povetkin's Points of Disagreement

[BrooklynBomber]

All right, just got it from official interview of Hryunov, Povetkin's manager. The things they disagreed on in contract/
Keep in mind, I am not a language major and this is a very crude translation

1) Klitschko did not want to insure Povetkin's health for the fight and duration of training camp

2) Klitschko did not want to let Povetkin use his own armed guards on the night of the fight

3)This one is hazy, but Hryunov also implied some complication's with cutman work for the fight. As far as I understand, K2 wanted them to use standartized cutman gear, and they had some non standard "potions"

4)Media promotion -- K2 wanted Povetkin's team to show up on press conferences, which is something they did not like

All right, and here is the explanation of the "slave" contract from Zauereland himself. Things he thought were not fair

1) Klitschko was making Povetkin fight in Grant Gloves

2) Klitschko was only giving Zauereland 5 free tickets to the fight

3) Klitschko was not willing to pay for food and hotel of anyone outside of Povetkin's team

well, thats it, no rematches, no clauses, no nothing.l

Sounds like they were looking for a way out. Probably why they brought up the OST too, having seen how Pacquiao ran a mile when faced with the same demand. I used to like Povetkin but this has pissed me off; I really don't need to see Wlad v Peter again.

Wlad is, at this point, millions in red from this fight. The tickets are already printed, the house is rented and the advertisement is bought. Wlad got to fight his mandatory, not optional defense, where he is picking anyone, but his mandatory best ranked opponent -- Samuel Peter.

Povetkin clearly doesn't seem to want this fight. Damn shame.

[BrooklynBomber]
