    Looks to be off. Povetkin back in hospital according to his promoter. (Taken from the other forum)

    What and were now for Whyte?

    Id like to see any of these three:

    Joyce
    Parker
    Ruiz JR

    I bet he ends up with Pulev though.

    He’s at the really vulnerable age for Covid patients. Could be very serious for him. Hopefully he’s ok.

    Agree.

    No doubt Whyte will come out with some absolute rubbish of how he’s faking it.
    Vastly becoming the most irritable man in boxing.

    I think his next statement will probably to wish him a speedy recovery. If not he is as stupid as he looks. I don't see any reason why povetkin would turn down all that ppv money to avoid whyte who he knocked out last time.

    Povetkin is obviously struggling with covid and hopefully he recovers and we can see the rematch in June or July. Whyte should get back out in February and fight kuzmin or someone like that.

    Pedvetkin should retire and leave Shyte with the forever unavenged L on his record

    Hope Povetkin makes a healthy recovery and is back in the ring soon.

    I would love to see Whyte Vs Ruiz, if not that then Whyte Vs Joyce would be great. No-one could complain with either of those fights.

    Jees, he’s proper struggling with it isn’t he? I’m not convinced he’s going to be able to fully recover from it sufficiently to continue his career. He’s already shot to pieces.

    If he’s not able to fight again, that’s a pretty good KO to bookend your career and go out on a win.

    I hope his family get him to retire and not risk his life for that PPV loot.

    He seems to be one of those who gets hit hard by the bug so God knows what effect it's had on his body.

    Povetkin doesn’t seem to be someone to dodge a fight and he took the first one against Whyte so given that result you would logical conclude he is reasonably confident of doing a similar job on Whyte? I assume his payday will be better ? I hope he recovers .

    I hope he retires for his health and so that Whyte will always have that highlight reel KO unavenged. He will never live that down
