Comments Thread For: Povetkin Drills Perez In One, Earns Wilder Title Shot

Deontay better vacate that title. There's got to be a better way.

He beat thanks to the ref allowing him to hug him like he was Hayden Panettiere.

I was really upset after that fight. Vitali would have truly beaten Povetkin though IMO. But little bro stands no chance against this Povetkin.

the holding was atrocious but youre forgetting wlad also dropped povetkin 4 times with big punches. its not like he just won with his jab alone. he hurt povetkin badly quite often in that fight

Klitschko - Fury and hopefully Povetkin - Wilder before the end of this year.

Two HW superfights.

I think Wilder will take this fight. Haymon on the other hand...

Wilder Whoops this guy. If Klitschko could knock down Povetkin easily, So can Wilder. Wilder also showed that he can box effectively too, see the Stiverne fight.

dunno about that. wlad was hurting povetkin every time he touched him. obviously povetkin has a much better chance with a competent ref this time but id still favor wlad at least slightly

Klitschko was panicking in this fight, this was obvious to me. He better get that WBC belt fast and retire.

[KO'er]

Wilder is different from Perez though. A lot taller and with a longer reach, he won't stay in the pocket like Perez.

Wilder-Povetkin will be a GREAT fight though, i'm looking forward to it. What a fight.

That fight was atrocious, besides round 3 i think with the legit KD, the fight went downhill from there, Ref was counting Wlad KD's that were from pushes.

Jennings isn't limited at all. But yes, that's a 70-30 fight in favour of Povetkin. I kind of admire Fury, he's got talent but I highly doubt that he would stand a chance against Povetkin.

Jennings is very limited. He has no power and very limited offense. He got a gift decision against the Perez that Povetkin just blew out in 90 seconds. Povetkin would be a very hard fight for Fury, he'd have to really be on point to win.

[bojangles1987]

I was really hard on Povetkin at one point, but he's a good fighter and got absolutely screwed against Wlad. He's probably the 2nd best HW right now.

[Hayehammer]

run wilder run!!! povetkin is going to destroy him so bad
