    Yeah, Povetkin should retire now, he was a fantastic boxer, his only defeats were to
    Wlad who cuddled him to death and should have been DQed
    Joshua when Povetkin was already on the slide
    Whyte... after Povetkin was in terrible shape and shot to pieces

    Good stoppage. I didn't want to see the old man take any more punishment.

    Povetkin's corner threw in the towel anyway.

    That was good viewing for me.

    Looked absolutely spent from the start. They will pump Dillian up, but he is so moderate.

    If Povetkin was at his now 100% he wants to be retiring ASAP

    One last payday, I suppose. But what I can't understand is why he didn't demand 3-4 months more to come back in shape, Of course, if he was in a bit better shape it might just have prolonged matters needlessly, since he's done anyhow.

    I feel the ref short changed Pov. He should have given Pov a count once he got knocked into the ropes. Pov's ability to recuperate could have given him another chance.

    Wilders had a massive layoff and got pummeled in his last fight, confidence probably shot to pieces. So that fight will likely get made.

    If we can all come together now and observe a minute's silence for those who paid for the PPV.

    Wow,. Just wow..

    Take nothing form that other than seeing the last of a shot to pieces post covid povetkin.

    Could hardly stand in there, awful, probably shouldn't have been in there but there we go, not like anyone around anyone in boxing cares about all that.

    Meh!

    Yeah, I hope he doesn't get used as some sort of gatekeeper either. He's completely shot and needs to retire.

    Something is amiss, he was unsteady on his legs during the ring walk.

    Probably offered less money if he delayed it.
