Lol I didn't care for the immediate rematch anyway, just happy that Hearn is crying in bed and humping a pillow right now. Good for Whyte anyway as Povetkin will turn 387 next year so should be easier to put down.

**** Povetkin!

Dude, I do not give even a little bit of a ****. I already know people will be sympathetic. He's had an entire career of getting into position or en-route to a title fight then it falls through over no fault of Pov's. Consistently. People are always sympathetic.

Injury, illness, but that drug were just made illegal, you name it. Think of a plausible excuse to miss a fight and not catch the blame and Pov's damn well used it. BUT, none of that ever ****s up any fights that are not or do not lead directly to a title fight. Only when he's close to a title.

Pov's close to a title? One should be ready for the it's not Pov's fault Pov ducks bull****.


**** this guy. It hasn't mattered and will never matter how good he is because he's a ****ing *****.

Giggles deserves credit for breaking real news in quick time. His thread got a bit buried but he was first.
