Comments Thread For: Deontay Wilder: I Look Forward To Facing Povetkin

[Sosay]

I'm 100% convinced that most of you are kids!!!!!

The heavyweight division isn't great but it's 2nd and 3rd tier fighters make good match ups. Wilder, Fury, Povetkin, Glazkov, Pulev, Jennings, Stiverne, Helenius, Thompson, Arreola, RuizJR, Joshua, L.Brown etc! Most of those fighters would be good fights, to me!

If Wilder doesn't finish Stiverne in the first round he will get MURDERED! ... Oh, wait.... crap....
Yea, Wilder is stiff and limited but the people who said he would get destroyed by Bermane and that Pov was going to be able to get inside and land on Wlad were both dead wrong. Stop playing love/hate. This is a great fight and there's no obvious outcome here. Wilder has that Forman-esque power and you can never make an easy prediction with a guy like that.

No way Wilder faces Povekin, PBC heavy weight champ..... he will give up his alphabet belt the same as the other PBC fighters... watch the break away, two distinct boxing champings that will never face eacch other although Wilder will be known by the general public as the heavyweight champ because that's how he will be promoted although he will vacate the WBC belt .... that's what i see happening anyway...

[wanderer21]

PBC will create their own titles cutting out the alphabet bodies and being recognized by the general public as the champion of that division because that is how they will be promoted... break away organisation with belts and their own champions.... don't know what the alphabets will do now ????

My question is YES haymon's venture is great for boxing and the non boxing enthusiast ... if it doesn't work?? ratings are bad and investors get tired of loosing money ???? what happens to the PBC champions, do they come back to the alphabet bodies with their head between their legs ??

I actually think povetkin has similar power to wilder. He's ko'd better competition.

Stiverne would be another highlight reel KO for Povetkin.

[yoz]

So many people here underestimating Alexander. He's clearly the second best HW in the division.

[Slowhand]

This is a difficult fight for Wilder. Distance control is key.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^
This. If Povetkin gets to mid range, he will KO Wilder. Wilder will have to move and throw a lot.
