Moscow Fight Card: Povetkin-Takam, Chakhkiev-Fragomeni & Undercards RbR & Discussion

[Weltschmerz]

Great KO....

[Foreign Soil]

He should've been given the choice to be carried around the ring on a stretcher for a few minutes to shake it off. Early stoppage.

[Loque-san]

Don't be ridiculous, Takam was unconscious.

I've never seen an unconscious man trying to get up... I'm not discrediting Povetkin's win at all. I'm just saying the ref should have given him a chance to beat the count.

cant see how anyone can criticize that stoppage. dudes eyes were glazed as hell and he looked out of it

Man, it was similar to George Groves. He was out too before coming to his senses. It wasn't safe to let either man go on.

We've all seen bad stoppages, this wasn't one of them.

didnt look like he was going to beat the count. even if he did he could have got seriously hurt. look at the dudes eyes man. he was out of it

You have a point... although it looked like Takam had no complaints whatsoever... I think that was as legit a KO you can get.

[dan_cov]

Give him a count? Yeah okay then...

[Y0@NN]

Cong**** to Povetkin, took on a top contender and did the business. I hope he continues taking on strong oppo., given Wlad should've been DQ'd he has a decent argument for being the best HW out there right now.

First the ref would have to warn him and take points, i don't know if he would have held as much after being deducted points and with the ref threatening to disqualify him.

[Rostov Papa]

Just beautiful how he set up that left hook off the straight right... Beautiful...


Povetkin, Pulev, and Stiverne are up for who is second best in the division.

Takam was a legit top 5-8 guy in the division.

Damn think of all the fights between the following: Povetkin, Pulev, Fury, Wilder, Stiverne, By-BY Jennings, Glazkov, Solis, Chisora, Cunningham, Price, Arreola, Mike Perez, Anthony Joshua... Even Lucas Browne could be in the mix with his power. ANd I'm sure I left out some up and coming prospects too.
