    The bigger they are the more tired they get for their output. If they condition for a grueling fight they can only do it soo many times because their joints wear and tear faster than a smaller persons.

            He wasn't a drug cheat, read what actually happen

            he was on something that was legal for the majority of his career, thats the reason why Wilder lost in court to him when they tried ot defame his character

              Absoloutley, it kind of annoys me how it's just constantly brushed under the carpet that the guy is a repeated cheat.

                he seems like he is really the last of the old school heavyweight, the mike tyson hitters in an era dominated by super heavyweights. an era where you have to be like 6f5,6f6 to succeed, he's the one still ****ing with bigger dudes and knocking them out.

                I don't think you will see another one like him because up in coming HW's are going to be mininum 6f5....anything shorter than that is a risk, they will go to the super cruiser (whatever the **** it's called)
                he was never "old school" to begin with

                  Fury is also a drug cheat as well using that logic

                    Why are you telling this lie again? Wilder and Dibella successfully sued Povetkin and his managers for 5 million.

                      No, only cheats. I hate that fighters who don't fit our agenda or go against it are vilified for the exact same thing without conviction and after being exonerated ie. Canelo while repeated proven offenders like Povetkin or others that are under investigation like Fury get your praises.

                      But why am I even responding to you. You're a paid for race baiting troll.
