Povetkin doesn’t think about retirement

Former heavyweight champion Alexander Povetkin does not think about the end of his career and plans to begin preparing for the next bout in the near future. Last year, Povetkin had surgery on his elbows. Earlier it was reported that he could fight next on May 18 in Chicago. The boxer himself told that his next fight had not yet been appointed.

“I don’t think about the end of my career. As I said, I still have the desire and power. We’ll see how the body will behave, but I don’t plan to finish it and I’m ready to start preparing for my next battle,” said Povetkin.

Povetkin lost to Briton Anthony Joshua by technical knockout last September in the fight for the world titles.
