Comments Thread For: Wilder, Povetkin Will Be Ordered to Negotiate in October

[BOMB ZQUAD]

I just really dislike Povetkin for some reason haha. Maybe it's because people act like he's a freaking indestructible machine. I want to ask, have you ever seen him fight?

I have indeed, this is one of my favorite fights of his

War Wilder! Gotta beat Povetkin if you've got any shot vs. Klitschko.

Povetkin has more to lose than Wilder. Wilder could recover from a loss. If Povetkin loses, he's finished as a title contender. Wouldn't surprise me to see Povetkin try to get out of it

Lmao. Povetkin has had Ryabinsky put the money up for all his opponents with lofty rankings within the WBC, they have targeted the WBC belt ! Why would he try to get out of it ?

Finished should he lose ? He was finished after Wlad turned his A hole inside out and pulled it over his nose, yet still came back and destroyed guys never been stopped by KO before.

This is about the worst post I have read this year.

From a Wladimir Klitschko fan point of view this is great news. Upon Wlad getting Fury out of the way in ruthless fashion around August-September time, Wlad will then have a month or two to negotiate with Haymon before Povetkin and Ryabinksy come into play. My chief concern in all this is Povetkin grabbing that belt and Wlad never unifying the Green belt, as Ryabinsky has said already another Wladimir fight for those guys is not a good idea considering the tensions and hostilities between Ukraine and Russia. Ryabinsky has all the money in the world, hoepfully Wlad can unify that belt and relinquish it for Povetkin to fight the next ranked WBC guy, like a gentlemans agreement in place to allow Wlad a shot and then Povetkin can come into play afterwards if their generally are these fears of staging a rematch.

I find the timing expert, with the recognition and relationship the WBC has with Vitali and K2, it makes me think the timing has been worked out with those guys for Wladimir to have that crucial negotiating period before Povetkin is enforced.

Portman had nothing for Wlad last time. Who wants to see that again?

I take it you mean Povetkin.

I wasnt suggesting I want to see it again in honesty, although with stricter officiating like in the Jennings fight with Wlad, that fight could be a much better fight. I also would expect Wlad to stop Povetkin if he let his hands go, he dropped him how many times ? Povetkin looked as though he'd been in a car wreck after the fight and much of it was all the clinching, a fight without all that and Wlad gauging the distance as he did to clip Sasha on his way in I don't think he sees the 12th.

The point I was making was I'd like to see Wlad fight for the green belt and has between 30-60 days depending on the date he faces and ultimately dispatches Fury, to himself get a deal wrapped up with Wilder. I find the timing remarkable from the WBC and do not believe it is coincidence they called October when Wlad is expected to face Fury in Septmeber.

Yes, Povetkin vs Wilder is an awesome fight, but should Povetkin defeat Wilder, the WBC is all but out of Wlad's reach from what we are hearing and reading.
