Comments Thread For: Povetkin's Coach: We're Ready For Deontay Wilder Now!

[The Hammer]

Povetkin has a history of stalling fights. Don't you remember when he no-showed the Wladimir press conference and Wlad had to pose with a cardboard cut-out?

I thought you hated Wlad?

That was Teddy Atlas' idea. When Teddy was gone, Povetkin fought KLitschko.

Does Povetkin actually want to face Wilder?

Of course. He wanted to fight Wilder last summer, and again in the fall.

But Wilder kept getting the WBC to grant him voluntary defenses.

Well it must be someone new on his team's idea to be stalling the fight now.

Hopefully Povetkin is ready soon.
