    Sums it up perfectly. Everything he says about the HW division has something to do with his bizarre anti-Klitschko hate fetish. The guy is completely consumed.

    Its the absolute truth.

    Pov didn't come near destroying the last two guys he fought and both were inferior to Whyte. Rudenko was already beaten by Lucas Browne although it was very close.

    I said plenty of times that prime Povetkin would beat Whyte , but not this faded version.
    This Povetkin isn't destroying any top ranked HW

    Whyte scraped past Chisora who has been beaten by everybody of consequence that he's fought. Now he's going to take it to Povetkin, LOL

    Povetkin by k.o. within 7 rounds, I regard whyte pretty highly, but I think povetkin would overpower him.

    It would definitely be a very entertaining fight while it lasted.

    povs too old to beat someone of any calibre now, but back in the day he might have took the decision over a tiring Whyte for sure, even stopped him.

    Whyte's pawing touch jab is awful. There's no snap in his jab. Yes, he's got a good output vs a certain level of opponent. Although, I really don't think Povetkin would be bothered by Whyte's basic jab to the body and head because Whyte is inviting a right hook followed with a combo. Which is Povetkin's bread and butter.

    Even this faded version should beat Whyte on boxing skills alone to a decision. Povetkin will apply pressure, create a pace which would cause Whyte issues. I will say Whyte isn't as bad as some people say on here. I believe he's still a work in progress even though the fight with Browne didn't say much at all.

    I'm not a fan of Povetkin because i think he deliberately cheated because he then went on to get busted for Ostarine which is easily readily available to buy online. It just made me think he tried to get around the testing by taking Ostarine to give him better stamina.

    I think his power was enhanced by banned substances. He'd beat Whyte by decision if they do fight, though. Due to his superior boxing skills and experience.

    Per Dimbo, the man has had two consecutive shut out UD's so he must be finished, right? Hopefully others will think that when they get in the ring with more to lose than Rudenko and Hammer.

    But for honesty, you should mention some details, Povetkin was in difficult circumstances, he changed his coach ( Atlas to Zimin), there were some scandals that influenced Povetkinv's shape and also Povetkin underestimated Huck. I am sure that in rematch Povetkin would have knock Huck out easily.

    I'd watch Whyte-Charr...that's decent.

    At least he won the Huck fight, unlike Haye vs Tony Bellew.

    Rudenko did not even try to win, he just tried to stand on his feet before the final bell, if Whyte chooses the same tactic, he will lose by UD, if he tries to knock Povetkin out, he will lose by KO.

    Povetkin needs to stay off tainted vodka before the Price destruction ....no one wants to see a Povetkin win dq'd giving Price a shot at a title bout.

    Russian vodka? I hope Price is reading this. All he needs is some real russian vodka and cut price mexican beef, and the title is his.

    this is dumb, seeing as today both Haye and POvetkin are in the same boat of being too old to fight at top level anymore....but back in the day both had fair wins.
