- -AJ vs Povetkin 2018 that I remembered as a good fight and indeed, still is.
Povetkin a tough waterbug chin tucked never been KOed landed a fair few that had previously KOed others, but AJ not adverse to going on the back foot bided his time boxing and racking points.
7th came early for Povetkin as AJ froze him in place for a well placed series that stumbled POV with his head outside the lower ropes where his team grabbed a limp arm to yank him out further, clearly wanted the fight stopped as it should've been.
But somehow POV beat the count to get blasted down where the ref's brain finally kicked in to stop the obvious.
