    Gentilman Gerry ey has a 3" height and 5 inch reach advantage.

    Povetkin has never been in the ring with anyone who has a jab as good as Gerry's, including Vlad.

    I have ****ey by 8 round stoppage.

    Kooney...LOL, this word filter sure is low grade.

    Who you got against the Gentleman and the Doughboy?

    Oh come on. Povetkin is so overrated and will be killed by Wilder.

    Co oney had a very good sharp and powerful jab also, with a 81" reach. Very key for handling a straight forward plodder like Povetkin, and Co oney's left hook was much better than Povetkin's. :yep

    Don't forget Co oney also could throw a very good uppercut too which I'd imagine would be put to good use against the shorter Povetkin.

    Coo ney had yet another advantage over Povetkin; Stamina.

    You newbies probably forgot but more likely, never knew, that when Gerry Kooney met Larry Holmes he was 25-0 and had fought and beaten;

    -Ken Norton
    -Ron Lyle
    -Jimmy Young

    Although they were on the decline, they were still much higher level opposition than Povetkin has even thought about facing.
