Comments Thread For: Wilder vs. Povetkin Targeted For Next Spring, Says Ryabinsky

[VG_Addict]

So what happened to Povetkin vs Klitschko? He struggled to get around the jab and when he did, he got tied up.

Wilder's jab isn't as good as Wlad's.

Wilder also has worse footwork than Wlad.

He has some slick ways to get past the reach disadvantage, and the only time he gassed out was vs Huck which he didn't prepare properly for.

So, you don't think he's improved since then? 3+ years ago? I do. And besides, Wilder is no Wlad, even at 40.

I don't. He was getting touched by Wach, the last tall guy he fought who is far less skilled and powerful than Wilder. Wilder is no Wlad, but it doesn't take a Wlad to use length to defeat Povetkin.

povetkins a midget, too small to be a top heavyweight, went life and death with cruiserweight marco huck lol. Theres always an excuse for why wilder fights people who arent much good, is coming up to 40 fights now and hes not attempted to fight a top guy in his division. wlad absolutely annihilated povetkin

If Pedvetkin was facing any other top ten HW you be calling it a 50-50 fight...I guess deep down inside you know Deontay is superior...and I dont want to take the time to find your qoutes but I'm pretty sure you been saying Deontay Would duck Pedvetkin and that he would not fight anyone credible in 2017.

He doesnt have to have Wlad jab or footwork to beat Povetkin. His athleticism and power would compensate. The Stiverne fight will answer a lot of Povetkin questions.

no and you can bump me on this if i do. cause not only is povetkin old he was never good in the first place at heavyweight, would expect bum squad to beat him.

So lets be clear here : tell me who are the 'Good' HWs on your list...so that when Deontay beasts on them you can give him full credit...

joshua, ortiz, haye, wlad, tyson fury (when he comes back). They are the top guys and theres a big gap between them and the rest.

And who have Joshua or Ortiz beaten? A useless Charles Martin and Malik Scott?
