    Johann Dahaupas: 100s of flush power shots from Wilder couldn't put him off his feet. Povetkin puts him out cold with 1 left hook.

    Mariusz Wach: Best chin at HW, never stopped

    Mike Perez: Known for a stout chin, never stopped

    Carlos Takam: Parker couldn't come close to putting him down, never stopped.

    To be fair, Povetkin never KO'd or knocked down Mariusz Wach, who by far has the best chin of the aforementioned fighters

    Fight was stopped on cuts, and Wach took all Povetkin's hard punches for 11+ rounds

    Wlad was far closer to stop Wach in round 8 of their fight

    There is a reason he is avoided

    Povetkin got the WBC USA title running scared.

    Not impressive since Duhaupas never had a training camp for this fight and is out of shape.

    Povetkin is the one who is scared here. He had to rely on PEDs.

    Don't you mean over the counter supplements.

    I'm not defending Povetkin, but I'm going to await the outcome till I pass judgement.

    My main point still stands in that he crooked WBC are doing everything in their power to keep the heavyweight title in America.

    Is the WBC the 4th ranked of the belts?

    Yeah, an over the counter supplement that is banned by WADA since 2008.

    Povetkin is the one who is crooked here. He has to rely on PEDs.

    That's true but it's still impressive to stop a guy as durable as Wach by any means.
