And why not.
He's gotta step up to the Klitschko plate now though.
Actually now he has to fight Valuev again.Quote:

I can see him being pushed into a Hopkins fight, just to build up his rep in the USA prior to a Klitschko showdown.
............but what do I know....
He has said he doesnt wanna fight Hopkins.Quote:

If they put him in with HayeQuote:

i'm pretty sure they want him dead.
if WBA request a Valuev rematch then he should give up the belt - he don't need it and it would be another nail in alphabet boys coffin.
The whole world (well most) knows its between him and the Klitschkos for the number 1 heavyweight title.
Would love to see him demolish Audley Harrison inside a round and rid us of that clown but that's way too beneath him now.
So....Kiltschko, Klitschko, Povetkin then that up and coming German guy i can't remember. Then retire before he has to fight Tyson Fury as that guy is lethal.
What was he before?...Figured since he had then WBA title he would have been ranked right behind the brothers anyway
No way that B-Hop would even get a chance to make it a horrible fight.Quote:

Ahhh....I always forget about Povetkin....Truth is I really don't watch the heavies much unless important fightsQuote:
