The team of the Russian heavyweight boxer Alexander Povetkin won a court in New York against representatives of the champion of the WBC version of the American Deontey Wilder. The victory means that the "Russian Knight" will receive previously frozen $ 4.3 million. This news was reported by lawyers representing Povetkin's interests in the American court. In May 2016, before the fight with Wilder, Povetkin's test showed the presence in the organism of a Russian of the illicit preparation of meldonia, and the battle was canceled. However, subsequently Povetkin was acquitted. A trial was opened between the parties. "I would like to say that this decision is the point in the dispute between Wilder and Povetkin, but no, the dispute is still going on, although the decision of the Federal District Court of the Southern District of New York can certainly be considered a victory." Why, because to the side of Wilder the court refused to meet all the requirements, and Povetkin's side was awarded $ 4.3 million, which is money frozen on the escrow account after the May 1, 2016 fight between Povetkin and Wilder, "the press service of Forward Legal Bureau said. "The decision can be appealed within 30 days, but Povetkin's lawyers have already demanded the escrow agent to return the money." Povetkin's team will carefully study the 48-page decision to think about further steps, including in court, because the parties have yet to fight for multi-million reputational requirements, "the report said.
Surprisingly, Evgeny Romanov did a better job against Denis Bakhtov than Anthony Joshua did. Romanov dropped Bakhtov thrice and stopped him in the first round. Whilst Joshua couldn't even drop Bakhtov once in 2 rounds.
And? Antony Joshua did a better job on Kingpin than Vitali Klitschko did. Obliterated him in a round whilst Vitali couldn't even drop him and was taken the full 12 round distance. Does this mean AJ >> VK
Calm the hell down fan boy! Where did I claim Romanov > AJ? I said I was SURPRISED (and rightfully so)! Why the hell are you following my posts all over this forum and responding to them out of context? You've done this multiple times now. And yes, AJ that fought Kevin Johnson > the version of Vitali Klitschko that fought Kevin Johnson.
