Look at all these excuses. Povetkin avoids for a reason. He avoids fighting a champion the first time he's their mando for a reason. He avoids all unbeaten fighters for a reason. He avoids fighting outside of Russia for a reason. He avoided every single title contestant until after they fought for the title for a reason. If he wasn't a twat, if he was worth a ****, what the **** was CM doing with his belt? Wilder? Johsua? Fury? How about any of the ****ers they fought? Glaz, Beramne, and Chris didn't need to see his before fighting for a major , not pretend WBA reg, title either. Pov's the biggest media lie sold in boxing since the ****in' colorline. Beats guys after they've reached their height, have been exposed, and on their slide down, but yeah, dude's not a ****in' *****. He's obviously scared of the big show. He avoids it every time he's given an oppertunity, no fault of his of ****in' course because yer shitsuckers who slurp up unfounded **** printed from stains what never bothered to research ****balls prior to their expounding bull**** and have all the credibility of any other fat lazy **** with a big mouth that's sat on ass to watch what they don't understand and form strong opinions around their assumptions for years while being made to feel secure by the number of dumbshits in the same boat, I get it. I get not blaming him for being a ***** his whole career as the media told you he's not a *****, but why the **** do you act like he's been anything but gatekeeper terrified of the champions and anyone with any hope of becoming a champion? Does not ****in' matter how legit his excuses are, his daddy coulda died prior to Wlad and his momma prior to Wilder and I wouldn't give a ****. Dude's showed a consistency for being scared of anything resembling a challenge and a couple ****in' weak excused don't change that ya mook pricks.
Nonsense. He fought Wlad, he tried to fight Wilder. Two of the most devastating punchers around. He fought Takam, he fought Perez, he fought Wach, he fought Duhaupas, Byrd, Chagaev, Chambers ... he's fought everybody. He has arguably the best resume at heavyweight today. And now, he's fighting Hammer, probably Tyson Fury's #2 win. The last guy that needs flak is Povetkin
Why do so many people hate Povetkin? Why are people trying to push him out of the sport? It translates to me as fear because if he faced all the world champions it's likely he'd knock them all out! and the haters know that. Talking about 0.00000001 trace of a recently legal drug like he's the only boxer to have ever tested positive Some people are desperate for Povetkin to not be in boxing or suddenly show his age in the ring. And talking about his chin, am and pro he's proven to have a solid granite chin.So you are clutching straws if you are saying otherwise.
Povetkin impressed me with his heart in the Klitschko fight. he kept trying his hardest to win till the final bell, kept getting up, kept going forward, the clinches and poor refereering didn't deter him one bit.
Pretty much this. Povetkin doesn't have much time left in boxing, and I want to see him in some big fights before he goes.
Dude, you didn't even attempt to dispute anything I said. If you like, I'll color code the corresponding portions of each post but if I miss the mark on this it's probably because I'm confused about where you actually argued me. It seems to me you agree with what I said you just have a different take. He fought Wlad a decade after ducking Wlad, then repeated the situation with Wilder. Saying he tried is well, ok he tried buddy, he tried just like he tried to be champion right? Then you name the leftovers I alluded to. No one ever said he doesn't fight top tens, I said he takes no risks and makes no push for any major titles because that requires him getting in the way of a risky fighter. When did he fight these guys? Justify that ****. One of the weakest if not the weakest eras in HW boxing history and this guy's scared to fight fat, slow, undersized, and unathletic fighters he's favored to beat until after someone else with ballitos shows him how? You have to justify and rationalize that **** to some other outcome other than ***** because my instincts say that man is a scared twat. You want to claim the dude's not scared of champions and challengers with a decent shot at becoming champion then why **** are the only 0's he ever took Chamber's and Wawrzyk's? How come everyone is allowed to eclipse his ass and try for a trinket higher than any he's ever owned without him even making the slightest effort to stop them? Not his fault? He tried? His whole ****ing career? No dude, there is no excuse for his conduct nor his resume. It's a ****in' farse and just like I said before the only reason you feel strongly about is because boxing media has been spinning his ***** career into gold for a decade. Dudes with the biggest promotional packages behind them just happen to get the most favorable articles written by coincidence. Every Wlad leftover this ***** feasted on he was praised for in the media rather than anyone ever questioning why the **** fighters fight him after Wlad not before. No one ever asked why he's happy to be the leftover killer and no one ever asked when he's going to grow a pair and start fighting guys whose deficits weren't exposed. No one ever, the whole time they cried about the division being weak and Wlad being a lackluster champion, none of them ever pointed out being the best of a weak era is a sad historical claim, but being second best of a weak era and only ever proving it after the best has reaffirmed their placement is pathetic.
Yeah I can see how you might come to that conclusion based off Wilder's icing of Nichols, Sconier, Arreola, Szpilka, Warykzykzkyz and Washington, who all had comparable amateur/professional records to Povetkin.
