Comments Thread For: Povetkin Still Recovering From COVID, Will Not Face Whyte in January

[Boxing56]

Terrible comments by Whyte. Wish the guy the best of luck with his health instead of sounding like a bitter loser.

Whyte vs. Wilder for the STFU belt...

Whyte vs. Wilder for the STFU belt...

Lol.. Green K.

The people have spoken...

Dillian Whyte vs. Deontay Wilder

Plot twist:
- Povetkin tests positive for all the steroids he took to recover from Covid
- The fight is off indefinitely and Povetkin retires
- WBC appoints a fight for the mandatory spot between Wilder and Usyk just because they can and they don't want to enforce a mandatory on AJ/Fury winner
- Whyte turns white [hair] over night upon hearing the decision
- Beats Sulaiman into a pulp and goes to prison.

The end. Damned Covid.

Whyte zero class 2x PED cheat. Povetkin also a cheat, but keeps his mouth shut

Wish him a full recovery, hopefully he comes back fully fit. I think Whyte should fight someone else whilst Povetkin recovers.

Fight Povetkin in late Spring, stay take a stay busy fight for this planned date to build some confidence and momentum back up heading into the rematch, maybe somebody like Teper or Ouatah

This fight should happen, if Fury fights Joshua or Kabayel next.

COVID hits people differently. If it hit Povetkin hard he might need extra time to recover.

Amen. Right now, there seems to be 2 sets of people concerning this:

"This is no worse than the flu. It is completely survivable, and people are faking the numbers for funding and power grabs. If you are scared of it, you are a weak coward who needs to come out of your Mommy's basement and work for a living instead of milking the system."

OR...

"This is soaring worse than ANY pandemic EVER in the history of EVER. We need to shut down everything, economies and other medical needs be damned!! Hide in your basements, and tell on your neighbors if they do no comply!! This will give EVERYONE long lasting health problems and we will never return to how the world was EVER again!! Just accept it!!"

So. Little. Balance.

Povetkin got hit hard. His body is taking longer to fight it off and get to normal. There is a chance, though very slim, he might not ever get to 100% again. This thing is certainly bad and dangerous, even if it is not often fatal. Most people will recover fine, but some will not and that is why we try to protect those around us with safety measures. I hope Povetkin recovers in a few more weeks and is able to train again soon.

I also hope he blasts Whyte out a second time for questioning his health.
