      Not at all. I didn't know I implied that. I think Wilder fights too tall for Povetkin, and has too much power to go with that 6'7. I never typed anything comparing Povetkin to Drummer Boy.

      And I feel the exact opposite. I feel there is a lot of posters severely underrating Wilder.

      One thing we can agree on... Can't wait for the fight!

        Fair enough

        It will be a great fight. Im have been very unimpressed with Wilder but if he can legit beat Povetkin il tip my hat, it would be a huge win and wilders first credible one in my eyes

          Err, you just called them the same thing he did
          You should have said he has offended vertically challenged people, lol

            Wilder is sure going to look bad if he loses to Povetkin after you have said that, actually he will look bad if he doesn't KO Povetkin in the first round after how you have described Povetkin lol.

              People talk about fury like he's established boxing royalty. He didn't skillfully dominate klitschko and they're fighting again very soon. Fury needs to focus on that bc there's a very real possibility he loses and then would be begging for a fight with either.

                I thought "dwarf" was the correct term. It's funny that a HW boxer who's 6'2/6'3 is today considered a small guy.

                  Translation: I want Fury next.

                  Thing is, look at Povetkin, now look at Mike Tyson. Notice anything similar? Hint: About the same height. Obviously Povetkin is no prime Mike Tyson, but even so, he has nothing to be ashamed of... only losing to Wlad. I give him an excellent chance to beat chicken legs.
                  Povetkin is a good deal taller than Tyson.

                  That's where the comparison ends.

                    Not about the same height Tyson was only 5'10. Povetkin is 6'2 maybe 6'3. I do give him a good chance to beat Wilder though. He's the more skillful boxer and is also a big puncher. He'll take the fight to Wilder looking to get on the inside throwing big shots, its going to be one hellava fight.

                      Point being there is a good bit of height difference Povetking/Fury. But yeah, it will be a great one unless some wacko headbu tt happens early or something.
