    That's sad but not surprising, the sport is drenched in corruption unfortunately. Personally I had Povetkin ahead 4-2 could even see it 5-1.

    Looking back I wish Fury got that decision over Parker. I can’t stress enough that Hughie would humiliate Joshua in the ring. I’m going to keep repeating it. He needs to get into a mandatory position, I just need to see that schooling.

    Are they making a belt for that now too? Wouldn't surprise me.

    Hey, as I wrote, great fight, Povetkin tests him then he gets tired and stopped mid-fight.

    That was a brutal finish. Pov was in bad shape. No need to see him getting "assaulted" by a guy like AJ in that state.

    Pov came to win and really did box well tonight.

    Give him credit though he was willing to go the Russia for that fight.

    He has a serious disdain for Joshua that clouds his judgement. That was no where near a British stoppage. Povetkin's own cornerman was up on the side wanting it stopped.

    Price almost stopped him the last fight.

    Again you don't seem to understand he was 40 years old and was giving up over a 7 inch reach.

    He wouldn't have got ko'd like that in his prime

    So in 22 fights he has KOd 2 Olympic gold medalists, won all but 1 World title and is still undefeated.


    He's up there with Usyk and Loma.

    Stop hating on the man ffs.

    1. Usyk
    2. Loma
    3. Joshua
    4. Spence
    5. GGG


    My favorite active fighters in the sport, a pleasure to watch them all.



    Keep hating haters!

    AJ was very conscious of not getting caught with Povetkin's leaping left hook and he made sure to get his right hand in time to block it because he knew if he took one clean on the chin he very easily could've been stretched out on his back. There's no way Donkey wouldn't have been clipped by those huge overhand rights and lefts from Povetkin as he's way too open.

    No he made a good point. Hearn has even repeatedly said that if Wilder beats Fury there will be no AJ-Fury fight which is nonsensical and baseless. This is boxing and styles make fights regardless of who a fighter has lost to.

    Because Fury's movement would shut down Joshua for 12 rounds. It wouldn't be very exciting to watch either. Fury snorting coke is the best thing that ever happened to A.J.'s career.
