    I wonder if Eddie Hearn will be telling Fury he cannot fight Joshua before Povetkin as its not right. If Wilder fight is delayed do people think Povetkin would be a good keep busy fight for Fury.

    Hahahahah.

    Apparently Povetkin is not mandatory. How is that fair?

    Povetkin is old but he’s dangerous. A bit similar to Wilder, he’s **** but he’s dangerous. I don’t see Fury/Warren or even Hearn approving that fight as a “tick over” just in case he does somehow beat Fury and the big one with AJ has gone.

    Wouldn’t surprise me if Eddie made Povetkin v Parker next.

    Fury would jab the life out of Povetkin. He'd keep the fight at a distance and not allow Povetkin to work inside.
    Hope Povetkin gets his shot but Hearn has other ideas.
