Clean Povetkin, the guy who pounded away on Jason Estrada and Eddie Chambers all fight and never broke an egg was alright, but Dirty Povetkin is a BEAST! Povetkin vs Browne, Guillermo Jones and Briggs! No tests! MAKE IT HAPPEN!
this was the opponent I expected. I don't know much about Rudenko he certainly seems wilderesque level of opponent. Should be a relatively easy win for Povetkin. Give him some rounds. The main thing is how is Rudenko rated by the major organizations because Povetkin needs to knock off rated guys to move back where he belongs when the suspension lifts. Wish it was better opponent but considering the circumstances I don't think he was going to get a big name right away. I think Wilder was viewing this guy as a defense before he was deemed to durable by Wilder's handlers. Too risky
Yes he did, so he lost decisively once but the loss to Browne was definitely iffy. So applying context... *no belt *7 month + lay off *Is an avoided opponent What's wrong with saying that it's a 'decent' fight?
his sister Cheatpova is back now it seems but no wildcard entries for cheats in tennis, she will have to qualify for wimbledon, so theres a good chance she wont be there at all. if only boxing had similar ethics.
Rudenko is a good a Heavyweight. And I'm not just saying that because Hughie beat him. Rudenko wrecked Lucas Browne's grill to be honest. Supposedly that is a World Champion level fighter according to the WBA. Rudenko definitely kicked hiss arse No doubt though the Russian will destroy the Ukrainian. And the Ukrainian fanboys will get butthurt.
