Comments Thread For: Hearn: Joshua Thinks Povetkin Could Upset The Odds in Whyte Fight

[removed]

Povetkin won't be allowed to win even if he wants to.

[TMLT87]

I think even an old Povetkin can give Whyte plenty of trouble. Its pretty much 60/40 in favour of Whyte for me. If Whyte can actually handle Povetkin convincingly instead of getting a razor thin judge assisted win this would probably be his best win.

Povetkin won't be allowed to win even if he wants to.

Yep. If it goes to decision Povetkin will have had to have beaten Whyte to near death to get the nod. Whyte has already gotten pretty lucky being on the right side of the decision in the Parker fight and the first Chisora fight, those were very close.

portugal isnt africa, it's only a few hours away on plane...
plenty of british boxers have gone to spain to train and been tested there...but portugal is out of reach? fk out of here...there's VADA testing for wbc sanctioned fights you ****** turd.

Hardly any drug testing going on at the moment. That's a fact. The testers won't be going to Portugal anytime soon. Whyte knows it.

Portugal also has easy access to all sorts of drugs

he wasnt guaranteed mandatory status
Whyte said numerous times he will fight ortiz as long as the winner is guaranteed mandatory and not waiting in line after brezeale.
brezeale made it a legal case, he would have sued wbc if he didnt get his promised shot (which we know he was given to stop him pressing charges against wilderin the first place).

Whyte would’ve got the shot after Breazeale. Why would Whyte get a shot before breazeale when Breazeale won a final Eliminator and Whyte didn’t? Whyte still ended up as the mandatory AFter Breazeale anyway. So he should’ve just fought ortiz.

Ortiz lost to Wilder, he had his shot, but suddenly he would be in contention again? why should that be allowed? you get your shot, lose, you go to the back of the queue.
the whole thing was a smokescreen to avoid whyte. brezeale didnt do ****.

ortiz was offered $7m for aj and his management refused it.

just a made up argument there. you can get ped's in any country. the americans, mexicans and russians are the most notorious for steroids.
since you're claiming they arent being tested, why throw accusations at whyte but ignore everyone else?
is ruiz on peds right now?
wilder?
tyson fury?
how do you know whether they are or they're not?

when lockdown hit, gyms were closed..whyte has a gym to himself in portugal. makes sense to go there.

Must be low purchases for the garden Ppv since Edward is now using joshua via proxy to sell the fight

While Whyte was refusing final eliminators. Breazeale beat Molina in a final eliminator.

Wilder also offered Whyte the shot as a voluntary and Whyte turned down the opportunities. Whyte was the one ducking. He didn’t want to get ktfo.

What does AJ trying time cherry pick the old man with 5 weeks to train have to do with this other than being a pathetic attempt at deflecting? lol

You do know that UK media acknowledged that Whyte also turned down that same AJ fight but yet he’s crying about wanting a shot at a title.

You’re delusional. Whyte lost to Chisora in 2016 would’ve lost to Parker if they had a competent ref. If Parker had all those fights without the Matchroom Machine behind him he would have at least 3 losses and would be considered a decent 2nd tier heavyweight. Which is what I rate him anyways.
