[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Andrey Ryabinskiy, promoter for WBC interim-heavyweight champion Alexander Povetkin, says full champion Tyson Fury will certainly become a target in 2021. Povetkin will first face Dillian Whyte in a rematch on November 21.

Povetkin has zero chance of beating Tyson. In fact I'll take Whyte to avenge his loss. Doesn't make Povetkin a bad or shot fighter but Whyte was quite comfortable before the KO. Pov is a mere 6' 2" 220+ lb heavyweight, the big boys are super heavies. Would rather watch Fury whipping Whyte.

If Povetkin beats Whyte again I can't see a interest from fans
for a Tyson Fury fight. There's too many good fights out there and the same goes if Whyte wins. Whyte was the one knocking on the door and we all know Povetkin was only there through his faded name.

He was hurting Whyte to the body and pushing the fight he beat Whyte again

Povetkin should stay well away from Fury if he values his health.

He's made for Tyson.

Team Whyte have been very clever forcing an immediate rematch

Guys in their 40s can perform, but they physically don't recover nearly as quickly, going straight back into training camp will be a lot tougher on Povetkin than Whyte.

Though Pov pulled off a really great shot my gut instinct tells me Whyte will win the rematch, likely boxing very, very cautiously as Povetkin fades in the second half.

In the event Povetkin does win again, he will be at the back of the queue behind Wilder and probably two AJ fights, and I really don't think a 42-43 year old Povetkin will be a massive worry for Fury TBH

Right?

When I was watching Whyte vs Povetkin it really was honestly like watching two slugs slugging

I mean you talk about slow.

You can look at that two ways. You can say a 41-year-old doesn’t recover as quick, but they also become more faded as time passes at that age.

Povetkin is always in shape, so I think a quick a rematch actually suits him because he is fading, even though he won.

Yeah it would be a beating and a corner would pull him out.

Even if Whyte wins, he has no chance of beating Fury. Fury stops Dillian within 4 rounds.

Fury is about to become a wrecking machine with a more aggressive approach. And he still has the best skills in the division when he he needs to
rely on that. Scary thought. Makes my hairs stand on end just thinking about it. Goosebumps.

It’s funny how a lot of these so called punchers don’t even have the KO% fury does, And he is a fighter that after never looked for the knockout.

Now that he is going for knockouts, the entire division is going to fall like dominoes, especially AJ.

Pair of bums tbh, compared to Fury at least.

Fury would just fight Povetkin off the back foot and jab his nut in.
