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

[DaBeastO]

Like I said, real accomplishments that stand the test of time. Not losing some belts because you went on the burgers, beer and Persian rugs and then picking up a different coloured one after fat camp finished.

Winning and defending the heavyweight championship. You know, the stuff that the greats got judged on.

I've given you three in the current era. Two of them made a lot of defences.

Obviously I rate Fury's win against Klitschko (and AJ's stoppage win against Klitschko too). But it doesn't make him a great. Not yet.

so??? fury easily smashed one of those dudes you are talking about! and the other got knocked out by a fat slob who took the fight on short notice! lets not forget aj also struggling and being taken to the limit against an older version of wlad meanwhile fury easily defeated a younger version of wlad! wilder's title run was horrible did he even beat 1 good fighter during that run? NOPE! fury's legacy is greater than wilder's legacy right now! fury will school aj when they meet. he's the best out of the three by far!

Nice. Whyte looked better than I expected, but then he walked right into a trap and took a nap. And I made some money.

Another black brit exposed.

Shyte got justice tonight,the boxing gods knew he deserved to get kod for his cowardly ways

That's true but he looked awfully vulnerable in there against Whyte. He looked old, weak and slow. It looked like Whyte could have ended the fight anytime he wanted after dropping him two times in one round.

However, Whyte simply decided that he was going to carry Sasha which was a huge mistake and paid a heavy cost for it. You can't carry an old cagey and experienced veteran like Alexander Povetkin or you risk getting hurt and he did.

Whyte got too relaxed after the two knockdowns. He didn't throw the short left hook counter and gave Pove a chance to throw his upper cut.

How are the commentators shocked? How is anyone shocked???!

He wasn’t fighting Oscar Rivas.... it’s freakin Povetkin. Explosive puncher, top amateur, amazing boxer. One of the best of the era.

That’s exactly what I said....technically skilled , knows how to throw a punch and he has a brutal left hook if it lands.
Whyte is one dimensional , slow and lacks a deFence and against a well trained fighter in povetkin it could it be curtains and it was

I don't care who you think is best or who you like.

We're talking about accomplishments here.

And don't give me undefeated. Wilder was undefeated. So was AJ. So was Parker. They're all undefeated until they lose. Those guys lost after already achieving what Fury has in winning a belt.

When Fury starts defending belts, then we can see if he remains undefeated.

Whyte is a 4 round fighter. Even with the knockdowns he started to fight like he is drunk. Pove invested in the body early but kept on getting hit by the counter short hook that put him down twice. The one time Whyte didn't throw it he got KOed by the uppercut.

[Toffee]

He's already great, ending 2 lengthy title reigns, especially coming back from the brink of self destruction. He is the only undefeated of the bunch and favored over any of the clowns you mentioned. Guy runs the division. You can keep lying to yourself with that nonsense but he has defended the lineal HW championship the only belt that isn't handed out like candy. You haters make this too easy, all I got to do is use facts.

Defended the lineal - don't make me laugh. Is Lineal doing mandatories now? Was Wallin one? Pianeta? Schwarz? Get out of here with him defending a lineal championship!

By the way. Lineal... not a belt.

And debatable whether he even held it prior to Wilder. Or even now. That's how credible the lineal title is.
