    I'd like to see this. Povetkin's pressuring style vs Perez' nice counter-punching could be a nice styles match up. Neither one should even think about Wlad though - facing Wilder would be the much more sensible option. It would be better for the fans too - the thought of sitting through another Wlad-Povetkin abortion is too much to take.

    You're the one saying coloured not me, I don't like Perez because he's a big far bore. I'd love to see Wilder knock him the F out too. Or Stiverne, Or Jennings, or Joshua or even Thompson.

    There's a reason he was out of shape , he suffered mental trauma after having almost killed somebody.
    Theres no need for that.

    That doesn't make up for the mind numbingly boring part of it.

    funny how people said in the run up to joshua that povetkin never beat no one of note. when he was facing the strongest available opponents non stop and at the time was being praised for who he was facing.

    Povetkin's resume was considered by the vast majority here to be one of the best in the HW scene. He didn't have a true signature win but highlighting a handful of posters saying him and Perez is a fine fight (which it was on paper) doesn't change that.
