Atlas is a smart man. Povetkin is way to small for Wlad. Wlad will murder him. Povetkin needs a whole lot more skills b4 he jumps in with Wlad.
Plus Atlas needs more time to work with Povetkin, the time they have had so far is nothing when it comes to training new techniques and actually being sharp.
I would love to see Povetkin vs Adamek though.
That fight would be FOTY material.
@ Addix your right Atlas hasnt been traing povetkin for very long and i suppose if your his trainer and YOU KNOW he wont win then its pointless - so what exactly does povetkin need to improve on apart from SPEED & POWER ?

I think, maybe, he's waiting for him to grow another 4 inches taller!
Povetkin is 30. How many years does one need to develop? He really needs to start fighting tougher competition.
Atlas: He needs time to develop.
Translation: We're waiting for Wlad to become shot.
I understand the why part of not fighting Klitschko, Teddy gave pretty good reasons on Friday Night Fights, but what happens to Povetkin in the IBF ratings?
I am sure he drops from #1 but where does he get put in the ratings?
