Comments Thread For: Wilder's Manager Will Not Allow Povetkin To Dictate Ring Size

[SilverMiles]

A 20 by 20 ring should be the standard. I'm sick of seeing guys dictate the ring size to get an advantage. I hope team Wilder isn't trying to pull wool over the fans eyes and ask for anything big than that.

Normal 20 x 20 should be the standard

Povetkin was probably hoping for a small ring because he knows hes gonna have a hard time getting in range. Hes getting knocked out either way ....victim #37

Wilder afraid of fighting toe to toe? Come on dude, man the **** up.

Golovkin didn't fight Lemieux toe to toe. Or have a small ring. It's as simple as the champion who is traveling anyway, shouldn't have to give in to multiple demands.

Other than homefield advantage for povetkin deontay wilder calls the shots. Wilder is the A-Side.

Just make sure there is enough room for Wilder to be laid out in the horizontal position

(kidding!!!)

I'm just happy to see the fight - Povetkin didn't really look that great against Wach, but he has the pedigree that makes it seem like he should be the 'better' fighter... but Deontay has come along. I'm starting to feel comfortable with him in the ring, it still looks awkward and he's still raw, but overall he seems to have a better footing now, I trust him. He still not "the man" but if he wins this it would go a long way. And it's overseas, good for him

**** I hope not

Ryabinsky won the purse bid therefore he dictates the terms.

I'm not even sure why ring size is even up for debate. Why is ring size negotiable? That kind of stuff seems like it should be written in stone by the commission.

Ring size, glove size. Boxing is a dumb sport.
