he claimed every opponent for years would defeat both klits. he is to ee's like shockmaster is with golovkin.
Wilder was going to show up Wlad as a pure fraudulent cheat by boxing Povetkins ears off without a single illegal clinch . You should be thanking your lucky stars Povetkin botched the fight.
No sane professional boxer let alone a world champion would go through with a fight in Wilders position. Nobody. Even if Wilder wanted to fight he couldn't have, the WBC had no choice but to postpone it until Povetkins test issue was resolved. Obviously until that point the fight cannot happen for a whole host of legal reasons. It's really not rocket science. Louis-Galento/Wilder-Povetkin is a very strange comparison.
I said he was going to lose bad because he was over hyped and had a very basic skill set. The fact he took rounds off Wlad over the distance proves Wlad was overrated and was nothing if you took his holding away. I picked more Wlad fights right than wrong. go log off now Ralphy.
The man is not lying, he was the regular champ and Vlad was the super champ. When he and Vlad fought, Vlad had no problem accepting the regular title so it must have had some value.
Well, given that Wilder isn't actually a legitimate world champion (that would be Fury) the comparison between the two paper title reigns is valid. Povetkin has done better work before and after the WBA reign, it should be noted.
