    I'd say both are on the same level.

    Povetkin would win, wouldn't be easy but he showed tonight he isn't completely done. He beats Wilder too.

    I'd retire if I was Povetkin. Had a great career in the Klit era and gave Joshua some real problems, out gunned in the end and at 39 he's only going to deteriorate.

    I'm actually leaning towards Ortiz a little h2h. But Povetkin does have a better career and deserves higher rating.

    Imo Ortiz is a bit better but roughly the same level.

    Clearly. Grandpa Ortiz is probably 10 years older and he's on BLOOD PRESSURE meds!!

    Would be a good fight. Pov is a little too small for this era.

    Povetkin. Much faster, stronger and far more skilled.

    Povetkin without much doubt. He is all wrong for Ortiz. He would KO Ortiz.

    I'd back Povetkin, Whyte and Parker against Ortiz.

    Their both on a similar level, in my opinion. Both beating most top contenders, but losing against the very elite. I still think the ageing Wlad would have beat Ortiz. Bit of a 50 /50 fight myself. Maybe Ortiz because of his size advantage, and good record against shorter foes.

    Povetkin beats him. His timing, use of feints to set traps and explosive leaping left hooks sleep Ortiz. His feet are too slow and I don't rate his chin or stamina.
