I'm a huge Wilder fan, but I feel like Povetkin is gonna give him trouble..

I don't. Wilder is far from a perfect fighter, but he's far better than Povetkin. Povetkin has been overrated his whole career. Wilder throws more punches, lands more, is faster and has more power, and is more mobile with a better gas tank. Unless Povetkin lands a huge shot in the early rounds, he'll be running on fumes by rounds 4-5. Chasing a guy uphill like he will be is brutally tough.

All those that doubt that have never sparred or fought a round in their life. It will look like Wlad-Povetkin only more brutal..

You might be slow if you actually think that my mention of Drago, is anything other than humor.


That said, I would be willing to bet the ranch that p4p, nobody does PEDs like Team Mongolia.


Silly peasants...

I must break you !


Dolph actually challenged Tyson at one time in if it was sanctioned under Kick boxing ,he was always a legit tough guy but dont think he was going to win that one ,Dolph put Stallone in the Hospital while filming ,fracturing his rib ,so Drago is kind of real and actually beat Rocky.....


On the actual topic ,just a mess everywhere of whos taking what just make everything legal to a point of a set testosterone level and then nobody can cry about cheating ....Guys like Holyfield have obviously used among others yet hes glorified ,i say the hell with it let the athletes in general take certain peds for better performance or to help prolong careers its not like the drug testing makes it a fair playing field when one doesnt get caught and defeats a guy who is afraid to get caught,etc ....theres to many loop holes ,either make it illegal with stiffer penalties like revoking a licence or have a guide line and make it legal...... fighters however should not be accusing eachother, Ithink Wilder lost the fight right there.

I'd actually support Wilder here if I thought he was genuinely advocating a level playing field. But it's clear he's just trying to gain an advantage and/or get under Povetkin's skin. Drug testing is riddled with corruption; it's shockingly easy to find a company willing to turn a blind eye to certain abnormal test results, or come down harder on one party than another. I'd be highly doubtful if this was in any way a fair process.

Well can it be a little of both? Can't he want the sport to clean up its act as well as make sure his opponent in a career-critical fight is on the square? He is hardly the first one to raise the question re: Povetkin or that part of the world. Besides Povetkin had no trouble demanding Wlad be tested strictly. I think he can me a major player in moving the sport towards mandatory, standardized testing..

I like Wilder more than Povetkin.

But in this fight anything can happen, if Povetkin lands a good combo or uppercut on Wilder's rather weak inside game... it's good night champ

Realistically, if both fighters are 100%. I can see a late KO by Wilder, if he fights lengthy and tires out Povetkin similarly like Klitschko did

Lol Wilder is terrified.

I don't care about any division but HWs. Povetkin is not overrated. Wilder had beat 1 legit HW & a couple of fringe guys (Liakhovich & Scott). Povetkin has beaten many legit HWs & was matched much tougher at the beginning of his career. He ran into a few injuries a few years back but has been on fire since losing to Wlad. Charr, takam, perez. I was impressed by wilder's performance over stiverne but povetkin is a top 5 HW & will be by far his toughest opponent to date. POvetkin will take the tests as he was pushing for stricter testing for the klitschko fight. This will be a great fight but I see povetkin ending his title run.

Best HW fight this year! More so than Fury and Wlad.
