Comments Thread For: Haye: Povetkin is Toughest Opponent of Joshua's Whole Career

[markther]

I’ve been saying all along Povetkin is the toughest challenge for Joshua. Doesn’t mean he will beat Joshua. But it’s another good upcoming fight for us to watch.

[ShoulderRoll]

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)

Wow.

So you are resorting to outright lies now, just to support your twisted agenda?

Pathetic.

People have whined about it, but, it's a really good fight.

I expect Joshua to win the day but I wouldn't be surprised if Sasha found some good shots to hurt him at some point.

I don't think Joshua is going to try and moonwalk and hold like how Wlad did against Povetkin.

I think Joshua will be smart and measured and will outbox him and go for the kill if it's there.

We'll see if that's true on Sep.22.

So far, a past his prime 41 y.o. Wlad gave Joshua his hardest fight to date. With Povetkin..well, even if we remove the hugging, Povetkin looked very amateurish with Wlad. And I wouldn't give Povetkin credit for a points loss (which was absolutely one sided, btw), I think it was more of Wlad not willing to embarrass his opponent on his turf. Wlad even indicated it himself once and, given Wlad's generally classy behaviour, I tend to believe him. Both Olympians, both come from USSR - at the time, the same country. If that lack of KO was indeed intentional, all more credit to Wlad. A true legend.

Povetkin lost a hug clinch dirty tactics fight to Klit who was never interrupted by the referee nor got a point deduction

Wilder shat his pants hearing Povetkin had traces of Viagra in his piss

Truth must hurt

Wilder is scared of true challenges and relies on being a coward and making excuses to avoid the best

Deal with it

Or send him a pen and beg him to sign

[Pennsauken1]

Is this the same PEDvetkin who struggled with the less dangerous version Fury...... Come on Man!!!!!!

LOL, when you look at Joshua’s resume; you have to admit, Povetkin is better than The version of Wladimir he faced that was inactive for over 1 & 1/2 years. Better than the earlier version of Whyte who wasn’t ranked in the top ten of the HW division at the time they fought. Better than Breazeale who wasn’t ranked as a top HW either when Joshua first fought him. And Povetkin has been ranked as a top 5 HW the past (3) years with only (1) loss to the younger Wladimir than the one Joshua fought. So Povetkin is a better fighter than Parker or anyone else in Joshua’s resume. Not even a debate.

I agree,but you been known to tell a few fibs regarding AJ and Wilder negotiations. It’s a contagious bug I’m afraid.Only Partisan fans are exposed to the bug.
