    There is no need to for there to be a super heavyweight division. You know 6'5 240 pound guys have been in the division for the longest time right? There is nothing special about AJ's height or weight. Povetkin is a full sized heavyweight who happens to be 40 and never good to began with.

    I'll say it again. Povetkin was never on PEDs. He was using meldonium, which is not a PED.

    Which means, the SUPER HEAVYWEIGHTS don't deserve any credit for beating those midgets / weaklings.

    Doesn't change the fact that these small heavyweights are hugely disadvantaged and are not in an even playing field.

    Povetkin at 175 pounds wouldn't be the overweight little fat pudgy pudding that he is at heavyweight and like he was against Joshua. Povetkin is a feather fist at heavyweight, with the punching power of a light heavyweight, but with the skills of Lomachenko. Unfortunately, lack of power is always going to cost him against super heavyweights at heavyweight. Despite his skills.

    Personally I don't believe he was and even if he was I couldn't give a flying **** anymore considering that the vast majority of the 'anti-PED' brigade are huge fans of Roid, Toney, Holyfield (allegedly lol), Shane and many other proven North American PED cheats who pissed dirty for hard steroids or where caught in possession of or admitted to taking a whole concoction of extremely potent steroids and PEDs.

    Case in point. Here we have one of the sports most opinionated and outspoken critics of PEDs who in one breath tears into Povetkin like he's a mass murderer of millions of children, and then in the very next blows smoke up the asses of his ''idols'' Roid Jones, Toney and Evan Fields the later of whom was a walking steroid, HGH, and PED factory.

    “I’m now in place among my heroes and idols. Roy Jones Jnr knows me, he said to me ‘Tone, I’m so proud of you [and what you’ve achieved]’. I first met him five years ago when I lost that first world title fight,” he told us back in December of last year.

    “After I won the world title [at cruiserweight] everyone says, ‘Would you fight Roy Jones Jnr?’ No I would not fight him, I would never fight him. And it got back to Roy. But I will never fight him. Never let your idols become your rivals. I’ve idolised that man since I was a kid, he’s the greatest fighter that ever lived. If he retired after the John Ruiz fight everyone would agree with me. He’s a legend and an icon, and I’m so proud that he knows me. I will never fight him.”

    There's a difference between a super heavyweight that knows how to use his size and doesn't.

    I was referring to OVERALL size and not just height.

    Joshua won, not because of any special skills, but by relying on his greater physical strength and size.

    Heavyweight division is only for big men. Why aren't we seeing any other guy the size of Povetkin anywhere near the top 10 of the HW division? Want to know why? Because small guys are irrelevant in that division.

    Right and I told you AJ is nothing special height wise or weight wise. Numerous heavyweights are much bigger than he is. AJ won because Povetkin is old. Also there is no such thing as a Super Heavyweight. There is just a heavyweight division.

    So where are all the other small heavyweights in the top 10? WHy don't they exist? Those who are as small as Povetkin? because they are irrelevant!

    Joshua is big and is a physical specimen who knows how to use his size. No small heavyweight from the past would EVER have beaten him that was the size of Povetkin.

    Oh they know that. Just don’t give a ****. That should be very obvious by now. But Povetkin is the Ben Johnson of boxing.

    “B.. Bu.. But one nanosgram ah Melbomium doe!!”

    Right then you realize Wlad is a better fighter in his prime than AJ and Corrie Sanders a 6'3 220 pound fighter destroyed him. Lamon Brewster a 6'2 fighter knocked him out and Ross Purrity a 6'2 230 pound fighter knocked him out. Then you also realize AJ was knocked out by the 6'0 flat 200 pound Mihai Nistor as a amateur. Joseph Park is 6'3 or less put up a good fight with AJ. You are clearly a casual boxing fan kid. Maybe find a sport to watch that you understand.
