Alexander Vladimirovich Povetkin vs. Dillian Whyte II & Ted Cheeseman vs. James Metcalf RBR.

Neither looked too good at the weigh in but Povetkin looked genuinely delapidated. He shouldn't be fighting.

 

What's gutting about this is that when Whyte chins him we're going to have the 'he deserves a shot at the WBC' narrative all over again and this will be proclaimed by Hearn and the Sky team has a Rahman v Lewis 2 kind of retribution.

Povetkin was shot to pieces in that first fight...he was clearly shot in the Hunter fight were nearly all punch resistance had gone. Now his balance has gone. All he has left is his power and ring IQ. I really think this could be a lot like the Whyte v Browne performance.

 

my bet goes as
dillian whyte ko 5-8 rounds12/5
metcalf 6/4 pts
wardley ko rounds 1-5 8/15
acca
12 quid returns roughly 160

 

I thought he looked his usual self on the pads. Remember they say the power is the last thing to go and whyte will be there to be hit again

 

Fantastic night of action, big thanks to eddie for putting this together in a pandemic.

 

‘Redemption on the rock’ inevitable from Adam Smith once Whyte beats a covid-stricken old man. ‘Once again the mandatory challenger and nobody deserves it more than Dillian’.

 

Your just a troll now
