Of Norton-Quarry? Nah, I’m not visiting that tonight. I think Ken Norton dusts the canvas with a Povetkin bereft of steroids. Hell, he probably...
It’s a valid argument why the best result Povetkin gets out of this is a no contest if the failed test doesn’t come back until afterward. I...
Ken Norton beat Jerry Quarry for one, who is stylistically way more similar to Povetkin than anyone Povetkin beat is similar to Norton.
So you’re saying ‘he used steroids’ while trying to also say ‘but I’m not saying he used steroids.’ Which is it? And yes we saw a ton of...
Well if he’s not rated highly then why discuss him as a guy who could beat someone who is? Povetkin has no meaningful resume. Norton beat Ali...

On what basis is Povetkin rated so high? What did he ever accomplish? In an era with about 1,000 belts, he won a vacant ‘WBA regular’ that he...
Roldan had him down. Just couldn’t finish him.
So you choose lighting over drug testing in a fight involving a 100% proven drug cheat. Nice.
Why are we presumably taking Povetkin back in time instead of taking Norton forward? As noted, there’s probably never been a clean version of...
Povetkin would fail a PED test in every universe, too. Dude was juiced to the gills and once he got popped for a second time his career nosedived...
I’m not sure exactly what constitutes a historical oddity, but here’s something that came to mind: Edwin and Adolfo Viruet both won New York...
Scar is a hard man. We usually give a guy a round for showing up if he puts up a good effort, but you only gave him a share of one, haha.
Tunney is way more handsome than Lou Savarese.
He couldn’t be arsed to go to the gym, so I can’t see putting the blame on a promoter or trainer. The fighter has to have the desire — why reward...
