Comments Thread For: Alexander Povetkin Gets Off The Floor, Brutally Blasts Dillian Whyte in Five

[techliam]

Joshua knocked him out and Fury never hurt him once. Conversley, Fury never looked in trouble against Wlad, whereas Joshua was sweating bullets.

How you view the victories depends on how you value those diferences.

I don't myself particularly rate winning on points with no great offensive output, and Wlad certainly seemed keen on a rematch with Fury. And Fury didn't seem keen at all about it.

Again, trying to spin the value of those wins simply based on the style of fight

It’s irrelevant how it was done. What matters is the context and scale of victory. Fury beat Champion Wlad - with ease. In the champions backyard

Joshua went life and death with an older belt less Wlad. Great entertainment value sure, but claiming it’s a better or equal win to Fury’s is madness

- -Fury didn't fancy the rematch.

U dummy boy?

Wlad was dealing with his post partum wife's depression as a sensitive higher order man than U clodness could ever understand.

Fury ducked the rematch under the guise of Gross Obesity and Mental Illness. He won the fight but lost the WAR.

He ducked, Quacked actually the rematch and NEVER once defended his belt.

What part of El ******o do U not understand?

He never fought Whyte or Povetkin, so no wonder he's in league with Deyonce who nakedly ducked both for TBAs and then Fury the weak link.

Remember U Boy, Fury?

He DUCKED the Wlad rematch!

He LOST the War!

I'm still a Fury Fan, but he has yet to man up to Wlad that makes him more than a little light in the loafers than he wants to be.

Kiltschko had three training camps back to back, before he fought Joshua 'He was angered, that he never got his chance to win his belts back off Fury' The Kiltschko that Joshua beat was in better condition, you could see that on the scales and even inside of the ring.

Wladimir Kiltschko would of beaten Tyson Fury in the rematch, Fury bamboozled him 'He did not beat Kiltschko up or hurt him at any stage in the fight'.

- -Fury blacked bof his eyes and befuddled him, a legit win save for the positive drug test the de****able UKAD covered up.

Nobody in boxing history deserved a rematch more than Wlad.

Joshua stopped wlad and fury tickled the belts off him

It does matter i mean you could say ali was "festher fisted" but he put hurt on everyone he faced and won fights like a real man

Fury boxed like muhammed alis mentally handicap brother ,looked like they were both playing a game of tag

Maybe fury was chicken worrying wlad would know hed have to come after him the same way he did in round 12

Back when I was still living in Salford, we used to call people like Whyte “jafakens” for those ridiculous fake Jamaican accents. Grow up lad, you’re from London not Negril. Hopefully povetkin knocked his accent into Received Pronunciation.

Whyte is from Jamaica. WTF are you talking about?

[theface07]

Wow! What a stunner! Whyte had the fight in the bag but got greedy. He made a fatal error and paid the ultimate price. Good on Povetkin to get the win and revitalize his career. I have to admit I was going for Whyte and thought he had a good chance to KO Povetkin but Sasha was always dangerous. He rocked Joshua bad before AJ restabilized and took him out. In his other loss, Vlad set the record for clinching in a heavyweight title fight because he knew how dangerous Povetkin is so no one should've been taking him lightly.
I'm man enough to admit I picked Whyte to win and I was wrong. Just goes to show anything can happen in boxing.

[SN!PER]

No idea what is happening here.

I think they just crowned Povetkin as a Czar.

Deservedly so. What a KO. What a fighter.

[SUBZER0ED]

It’s always been easy to say. A lot of us have been saying it. Whyte is manufactured and garbage.

Needs more DBol next time.

Whyte dropped Povetkin twice in the 4th. I don't think a garbage fighter could have done that. Alexander said that they studied Whyte and realized that he's susceptible to the uppercut. It was a beautiful example of discovering and exploiting the opponent's weakness. Dillian is still learning in that he has hardly any amateur experience. Things will be different in the rematch.
