Comments Thread For: Povetkin: I'm Tired of Waiting, I Want Klitschko Title Shot

[nomadman]

Who the hell is this Alexander Povetkin guy? I've never even heard of him before. Wait... there is some dim memory... nah, it's gone again.

I don't think old scarface is going to let Povetkin try his hand against Wlad. If Povetkin losses, scarface is going to take some heat.

Povetkin is a good fighter only problem is I don't know how good he is anymore. I mean he went from beating Eddie Chambers in a war to fighting stiffs. After Chambers lost in a war to Povetkin, Chambers went on to fight good fighters!


Chambers resume after losing in a war to Povetkin:

Samuel Peter W
Dimitrenko W
Wladimir Klitschko: L



Povetkin after beating Chambers in a war:

Estrada W
Nolan W
Mora W




I know the fighters on Chambers resume, they're good fighters Chambers beat. I don't know the fighters on Povetkins resume other than Estrada.

said since day 1 povetkin has a better chance of beating wlad than haye does

haye = 1% chance

povetkin = 10% chance

one thing about povetkin is that he only fights as hard as he needs to, if hes winning hell look kind of mediocre, if hes losing hell push himself and turn it into a win, i hope he waited till now because

[bojangles1987]

I was expecting a shot at Atlas. Povetkin would have fought Wlad by now if not for Atlas, so if he's tired of waiting that's who he should be blaming.

I think Atlas wanted to have him fight Haye. Maybe if Haye had had the bottle to fight a Povetkin instead of a bum like Harrison he'd have got there, instead of that he's going to have to make himself a mandatory for one of the Klits.

weird, it posted my post before i was done writing it and now i cant edit it

anyway i hope hes ready now because he actually feels ready, not because he saw haye get a 50% contract

So he is no longer being held back by fear for the inevitable beating he will receive if he actually takes his shot at Wlad which he won a couple years ago.

Which shouldn't be too hard. If Adamek doesn't win then there will be another dryspell of Klitschko opponents. Tua? Winner of Chisora-Fury? No thanks... One of the zillion belts Wlad has should be able to wedge in Povetkin as a challenger

But if Povetkin expects to get a $ contract like Haye's I'm afraid he'll go back to waiting.

Get A real name on your resume first. Povetkin is good. He is still is not ready.


Klitschko fight ideas for next few fights:


Late this year or Early Next year: Chris Arreola


Summer next year: Tomasz Adamek, Alexander Povetkin


2013 early: Alexander Povetkin or Robert Helenus
