    You American and British bitches just can't stand seeing Eastern Europeans dominating the division...You haters are pathetic.
    No it ain't! No one's interested because the fights are **** and boring.

    Some of the Heavyweights are tubs of lard and a disgrace to boxing, by the way they carry themselves.

    Wlad and Haye are the only two fighters in the division who look like athletics and show the division some respect which it needs right now.

      If Samuel Peters could lose a couple of kilos he could become something

          Eastern Europeans will be dominating the heavyweight division for a very long time, get used to it.

          Eastern Europeans are stronger and tougher than the Americans, British, pathetic Aussies, etc.

            Sykes was nothing short of a disgrace.

            Though to be honest i was a bit disappointed with Povetkin's performance, i was hoping he would genuinely KO Sykes for being such a coward (maybe that turned him off giving him a vicious beating), thought his combos were a bit lackluster.

            Wlad would beat Povetkin up bad IMO.

              I wouldn't call the fight a disgrace.

              Sykes was the disgrace in that fight. People who bash on Povetkin are ******.. Povetkin was clearly trying to make it a fight and Sykes would just hold and slip on purpose and hope the ref would count him out.

                Yeah that is obvious, it is hard to look good against someone who is running and clinching like their life depends on it. I was just hoping Povetkin would genuinely get him out of there, though i don't know his mindset at the time, he was genuinely pissed off at the end of the fight, maybe he didn't want to hurt such a coward. But i felt his combos lacked accuracy and power.

                  That fight was awful shame how bad some of the American heavyweights are at the moment.

                    Tubby heavyweight?

                    Remember when everyone seemed in shape. Even top tenners like Botha.

                    The heavyweight division is ****ing sickening.

                    Like Chunk says Haye and Wlad are the only in shape heavies that are recognised. At least aesthetically it will look like what a heavyweight title fight should look like.

                      The Heavyweight division is garbage!
                      Povetkin could beat Danny Williams and David Haye on the same night without breaking a sweat.

                      Povetkin > any British fighter under the age of 35
