Its being reported that Povetkin won the purse bid

[Master]

That was cheap compared to what was paid for Wlad.

I just want to see the fight between them and see what Wilder was so worried about. I do not understand why he is so scared of Povetkin.

There have been rumors that Al Haymon is getting low on money.

Nice to see it's happening in Russia (unless Wilder vacates) because Povetkin is more likely to receive fair officiating there (although that wasn't the case against Klitschko, who should have been DQed for excessive holding and repeatedly pushing Povetkin down).

Its interesting that Al decided not to cough up a little scratch to help Lou out. Anywho perhaps he never had to which would make him smart instead of having money problems. The Povetkin team might even want it in the States anyway. After all is said and done it would not surprise me to see this fight end up in New York should it actually materialize.

Because Povetkin is better than him and will take his title.

Povetkin has no head movement.

Watch the Wlad fight and try to ignore the leaning and holding. Inbetween that Povetkin has no head or upper body movement.

I think Wilder may be hiding a fragile chin rather than fear of Povetkin.

Because Povetkin has fast hands, a decent chin, and can REALLY box and fight and appears to have turned himself into a KO artist post-Wlad.

No one wants to fight Povetkin now. Not even Wlad in a rematch!

Wow you guys are pretty hard on Wilder.

I think it is the reluctance of Wilder more than how good we think Povetkin is for the critical posts about Wilder. I think Wilder beats Povetkin, even if it is held in Russia.

I guess we're just waiting for Wilder's drug tests demands and steroid accusations toward Povetkin, now. Should represent the start of the next round of negotiations.
