    Well if Hryunov is willing to shell out so much money again then it's the obvious choice, money talks.

    I'd favour Stiverne, Povetkin is a decent fighter but I think Stiverne is better, he knows how to deal with fighters that come to him and Stiverne hits harder.

    A HW Title for mother Russia! One that will prove the Russian's are superior to the Americans (doesn't matter where Stiverne is from)... Putin will cough up mega bucks for that... Certainly a possibility and a huge payday for Don King and Stiverne! And I like to see Povetkin get a real chance (Wlad will kill him in a rematch)

    Stiverene just won an exciting match with Arreola. Now that he has the WBC belt, he;s going to milk it and cash out before taking a bit risk. Wilder is next I think.

    That's exactly what I said. Povetkin brings a huge amount of money, Wilder doesn't.

    Who really gives a damn? Wlad made Povetkin look like a spastic, arthritic ****** when he hammered and tossed that doughboy around like a rag doll. Wlad slaughters all these so-called contenders. He has no legitimate threat to his titles and championship reign. All this talk is essentially who gets sloppy seconds.

    By going the distance with Vlad, Povetkin proved he has a great chin. Stiverne was knocked out by a cab driver.

    Povetkin wins by KO.

    No not really, he went down 4 times and the only reason he wasn't KO'd is because Wlad stopped trying to drop him. Wlad let him off the hook.

    I hope it happens. Povetkin gets beat by any legitimate top ten heavyweight. Stiverne would have no trouble out boxing him.

    Povetkin is arguably #1 contender in the world (#2 at worst) and Wladimir Klitschko is not "any legitimate top ten heavyweight". You got something mixed up. And no way Stiverne could ever outbox Povetkin.

    I'd like to see Stiverne fight Fury if he beats Chisora.

    Ryabinskiy is now the promoter for Povetkin, Lebedev, Drozd, Chakhkiev and was the one who put up the 23 million for the Klychko fight.
