    none of their victories are anything special. did either brother ever win a fight they weren't favored to?

    Povetkin is just another fight to me...I expect him to be stopped after being dominated by Wlad for a few rounds expect a stoppage anywhere from 5 onwards. Best I can see Povetkin doing is surviving a 12 round schooling.

    povetkin got his **** pushed in by Huck..... it will still be a big deal if Wlad KO's him...but just beating him is expected

    is he still bitter about how the Klitschko's won't give him a final payday?

    Not that significant in the grand scheme of history, but one of Wladimir's 3 or so best victories it would be.

    I agree that a victory over Povetkin wouldn't be 'special' but it would be a very good victory compared with the latest Wlad's victories against stiffs like Mormeck, old Thompson, Wach and Pianeta.

    I think Holyfield was referring about the weak HW era that Wlad is fighting and he's right.

    Broke, and stupid. Holy had excuses when he lost, and now he's jealous he's not in money fights.

    Holyfield just stating the obvious here. A Wlad victory would be routine and expected, not really a big feat.
    Holyfield did go on to say that a Povetkin victory would be a huge feat for him.

    Nothing to hate about in those comments.

    Where are you getting this from?
    I'm not reading Holyfield is looking to land a Klitshko fight.

    Are you even old enough to be hating Holyfield for taking Mike Tyson to the woodshed???

    I haven't heard anything in probably 6 months, but up until that point Evander routinely called out the K bros once a month despite the Klitschko's saying something along the lines of "we are not going to fight a 50 year old man who is unranked."

    How long has it been since Holyfield last fought?

    A few weeks after he last fought I read somewhere where he acknowleadged he likely would not fight again.
    Have'nt heard him call out anyone since.
