LOl

Stop complaining about that Klits. Go in the ring and beat em. The old fashion way. that's the way it works. Some of you guys are saying wahhhh wahhhh wahhh it's not fair wahh wahhh ENOUGH!!! You guys aren't fighting so shut up. Lemme Not face the best fighters in my division and wait so my pay day can be higher..that's a great concept. If your ready u fight the best, you beat the best, then it's your terms. That's the way it usually works.

And I cheer them on. Like haye, Chisora, Valuev, or Povetkin can even hold a candle to these guys. No one knows who the hell these guys are if your not into boxing..lol Klits are doing these guys marketing favors by even thinking to put them in a fight.

If want to dictate the terms of the ight go in there and kick their ass , then you are the champion and can have the leverage . otherwise fight or shut up or should I say " duck-out ".

The Russian puta had a mandatory contract, he shouldn't cry about it. He sat on his mandatory spot for 2+ years and even faked an injury (oh I tripped over a root, oh I pulled my vagina muscle), then when it was time to show up to collect $2.5 million he didn't even do that. His trainer said he wasn't ready and that puta said he is considering of running back to the amateurs.

Now his biatch punk @ss is crying about slave contracts to save face cause he knows he looks like a puta. You were a mandatory, you puta, there is no such thing as a slave contract when you are a mandatory, the purse bid winner determines little things like gloves and hotel room. Don't tell me you are such a puta that the type of gloves you had to wear made you **** your pants and drop out of a fight.

He is a perfect opponent for that British vagina Diva Hayefaker, two putas, hiding from the Kltischkos and facing each other (which they are probably not going to do anyway). I respected him 3 years ago when he was a Russian "vityaz" now he is just a "suka" (biatch).

Povetkin just needs to shut up. He is coward, pussy, and a little bitch. Not only he ducked Wlad for more than 2 years, he also ducked Tomasz Adamek resently and even Dominic Guinn!!! When Guinn said that he will kick Povetkin's ****ing ass (he literally said this), Povetkin didn't act like a man - he fought Javier Mora and Teke Oruh instead (Guinn is MUCH better boxer then those two punching bags). When he was asked why he didn't fought Guinn, he said something like Guinn wasn't the type of opponent to prepare for Wlad. What a hypocrite!

And who can forget the story when Chisora called him an ugly guy. Povetkin was too scared to respond, it was his manager, who said that Denis Lebedev will punish Chisora for saying these words about Povetkin. What a joke!

Povetkin is a proven coward, that's the reason why he is fighting only feather-fisted guys so far. His best opponents - shot Byrd (KO% - 46,81), shot Donald (KO % - 48), Chambers (KO % - 47,37) and Estrada (KO% - 19!!!) - were all feather-fisted heavyweights. In last 3 years (since Chambers fight) Povetkin has fought only one TOP-50 fighter (Estrada). Other his opponents were low-level jorneymen at best. Oh, and with the exception of Javier Mora (KO% is NOT that good, but decent at 60, though he never KO'ed TOP-100 fighter) all couldn't crack an egg. Taurus Sykes (KO% - 21,21), Leo Nolan (KO% - 34,48), Teke Oruh (KO% - 33,3), Nicolay Firtha (KO% - 28,57) - what a great opponents to prepare for a title fight!

[Die Antwoord]

Let me end this argument and disgrace the klit haters. You guys may want to change your accounts after this, cause this is about to get embarassing.

Lets address Povetkin's claim. First of all, he says he doesnt want to be a slave. His trainer also said that he wasnt ready for the Klitschkos...very convenient that they gave him a slave contract when even his own corner thought he didnt stand a chance and shouldnt take the fight. Atlas thought he'd get beat so bad that it would ruin him. Not just lose, but get ruined.

ALL of Povetkins arguments are not with the contract the Klitschko's signed, but rather with the fact that K2 won the purse bid. By winning the purse bid they get to decide things like hotels and gloves and such. Perhaps if Sauerland won, Povetkin could choose such things, unfortunately, Sauerland bid 1/2 what K2 bid. If K2 didnt win the purse bid, Povetkin would have been getting paid 800k, not 2.5 mil...sounds like Sauerland wanted to enslave him to me.

Povetkin was the mandatory and KNEW for 2 years all the stipulations that came with a mandatory title defense contract. Its not like the Klitschko's control the contract in terms of money or split or even rematch clauses, the contract is the same for every mandatory defense.

So Povetkin literally is saying he turned down a 2.5 million dollar contract, with no rematch clause because he wanted to choose which luxury hotel K2 WOULD BE PAYING FOR as well as what brand of gloves he wanted to use.

If this is true he's the biggest moron of all time, he lost out on 2.5 million dollars because he was unhappy with a free hotel room for he and his crew and because of brand loyalty.

K2 has every right to choose gloves, they won the purse bid they have licensing deals, not to mention at lower weights champions often get to choose even the size of the gloves, not just the brand. K2 always uses Grant gloves and prefer their opponents wear Grant as well, do you think that gives them some huge edge? Ray Austin and Don King complained about this as well and when the rules were consulted it clearly stated THE CHAMPION CHOOSES THE GLOVES. Wlad and K2 are meticulous with everything and fear things like cheating. They even accused Grant, before Sam Peter 1 of possibly making Peter's custom gloves a different weight and asked they be weighed and inspected. Demanding an even playing field is not ducking, its whats right.

So not only does the purse bid winner get to decide the gloves, but if they cant come to a deal on the gloves, the champion chooses.

So you could either believe Povetkin's trainer that he turned down the fight for fear of getting ruined. He turned down 2.5 million in order to sit back and wait for either the Klitschko's retire or a better deal.

Or he turned down 2.5 million because he didnt want to spend 25k on his own hotel room or just accept the free one he was being offered, and he would like to choose his own brand of gloves...........

Excellent post, too much logic for the haters though.

[Dirk Diggler UK]

Teddy Atlas already admitted Povetkin wasnt ready to fight a Klitschko. This is just a cover up. Haye started all this "slave contract" bull***** and now everyone who's too pussified to fight the Klits are gonna use it.
