Two things; He did not almost take him out and as far as pure punching power, I don't know that Joshua hits any harder than Price. Punching power is not one of Price's many issuesComment

Is that a trick question or can I call a friend? Are you not aware that Price punches hard? He is garbage but his single shot power easily rivals Joshua or have they both punched you on the whiskers and you have first hand knowledge to gauge?Last edited by Noelanthony; 09-11-2018, 12:21 PM.Comment

Agreed
There is a reason wilder was and still is petrified of povetkin and even went to court to duck him (losing the case costing him millions)Comment

Go watch the fight again. People take a small punch of salt and it's become and iceberg over time.
Povetkin doesn't have the marketing appeal in U.K./America but it's very difficult to argue he is outside top5 in the world, and many - including the top independent ranking systems - have him 3rd behind only Joshua and wilder.
It will be interesting to watch because despite his credentials he has been almost written off, and probably will be dismissed in similar fashion to Parker and Klitschko by the American public if he does lose.
I think most boxing fans who know most fighters will appreciate this isn't an easy fight and having him on his resume would be no mean feat .Comment
