According to Dmitry Ivanov, a sport director of “World of Boxing” promotional company, who also acts as a manager for 2004 Athens Olympics super heavyweight gold medalist Alexander Povetkin, negotiations between Team Povetkin and Team Wilder are under way but aren’t moving forward quickly enough.

“We are waiting, which terms promoters will agree to. Our goal is to provide such a camp that Sasha will be in his best shape to the date, accommodated by the parties. We aren’t excluding an intermediate fight in between. It’s unlikely, however, that Sasha will step back to the ring in September.
