Well that's what it still is. Stop your childish conversation it's getting boring. He will fight Povetkin afterwards, tosser.

And how long have we been hearing that? What's getting boring is you calling other people "tossers" because they don't share you opinion.

I agree - we all have our own opinions let's treat each other with respect after all this is a sport we all love otherwise we would'nt spend so much time on here - all this is our opinions which we are entitled to - please no more insults.

I assume this is the best available..

It's pretty much stay busy fight. For that purpose the opponent is more than decent. After that bring on Povetkin. Fury should be ready soon too.

They said this fight was because Povetkin negotiations could take a while. Asking to postpone negotiations until after this fight goes against their reasoning for the fight.

Wladimir is staying active and not putting all his eggs into one basket with Povetkin; we've seen how that played out before. Povetkin has ducked the fight multiple times now, if it falls apart again it would be absolutely nuts to blame Wlad.

And the other contenders of name value don't want it or aren't ready. Guys like Wach and this Pineta guy have been the ones willing to step up. Fury has been making noise, but I bet he has a lot of demands as well, so becoming Wlads mandatory will probably the route he takes to the title shot.

You guys complaining about the Klitschkos for not fighting an opponent of a higher standard have it backwards. Don't hate the Klitschkos for cleaning out and utterly dominating the division.

People don't share my opinion, yet they bring a ******ed argumentation to the table and Weltschmerz then has to crush them.

No and no. What is your point tosser? Povetkin didn't fight Wlad yet, so he cannot sit around twiddling his thumbs.

You must be joking. Not wanting to fight and not wanting to fight for peanuts and 3 options are two very different things. We all know by now that challengers are not exactly given any favours. Slave contracts for little money is not always enough. Money talks at the end of the day.

Hi Andrew - I hope you are well I always enjoy our debates - we have spoken in the past about Klitschko so you should know my opinion by now - I don't care either way if he fights Pianeta - even though it should be Povetkin and we know Povetkin is avoiding Klitshcko like the plague as he has done before so why not Pianta a good record not any worse than anyone else and Klitschko brothers have dominated the division for so long now so this fight could be interesting I am willing to give a chance.

actually povetkin as "regular" champion has 20 months to exercise his mandatory challenge. he took 3 fights during that 20 months & now exercised his "RIGHT" to his title shot. this is a business & povetkin's team followed all the rules & now they want their fight they are entitled to. it was klitschko who asked for the extension. i'm not calling wlad a duck but i think this pianeta fight is nothing more then a cash grab for K2. if they sent the guy home sparring because he was not efficient then why is he even considered for a shot? he did beat botha & mccall whose combined ages are over 90 when he beat them. i recall wlad sending monte barrett packing sparring one time & they never gave him a title shot. i'll watch it but i see wlad kicking his ass from pillar to post. pianeta is a feather fisted prodding heavyweight with a basic arsenal. 120-108 unless there is a knockout...
