Even Povetkin is in PEDS you gotta give him so credit

LOL. Would've beaten Wlad? He lost every round. 119-104 on all cards in Russia.

Never avoids anybody? Who avoided Wlad in 2008 and 2010?

And yes. 'Hypejob' Joshua will knock Povetkin out. And yes I know AJ also a PED user as many others, but they won't get caught cause their teams aren't as stupid as Povetkin's

 

And so did this guy! Twice caught but no threads about "Banning him from the sport immediately!!"

And Ortiz got busted for Nandrolone. That's a straight up hardcore steroid.

PEDS or no PEDS, Povetkin is by far the most skilled heavyweight in the game

 

Real nice left hooks thrown in succession as his opponent was trying to back up. How many other guys can throw punches like that while moving their feet? Most heavies are plant their feet to do anything types and could really benefit from this skill--and we aren't even getting into accuracy.

 

I've said it before and I'll say it again... Povetkin cracks Wilders chin within 8 rounds.

 

Yep I saw that too. Povetkin tripled up on those hard left hooks as he saw that is where Duhaupa had a hole in his guard. He never wasted punches hitting blocks and yeah he showed good footwork to be able to strengthen his punches. It was a good display of boxing.

 

But in heavyweight boxing, displaying those skills does not create opportunities, it subtracts.

The other managers do not want to put their guy--and that fighters defense--in there against that type of skillset. What they do instead is to take the path of least resistance matchmaking and cross that guy off their list and select other opponents. Like a face first guy.

 

Shut your hole pig belly.

Povetkin is a straight up bitcch made coward pussay boy. The man is weak and doesn't have a shred of bravery to enter into a fight without being boosted to the max on performance enhancers .
His gonads are the size of sultans-- All shrivelled up and tiny.

He didn't have the guts to face Wilder last year and begged the WBC to give him more time so he could finish his Ped cycle.

He didn't have the courage to fight fair against an old fat inactive guy that Wilder beat in a 12 to zero shut out.

The man is a complete and utter coward and disgrace

 

Well Povetkin is a lot to consider (drugs aside) so I can see why he maybe preferred to be avoided unless it inevitable of course. I know Duhuapa looked like a last minute replacement, which he basically was, but that was a really convincing performance from Povetkin. I think those kind of performances could subtract, like you say, and it defintely sounds out a clear warning but its what the division needs more of.

 

Lol @ the defence force.

Povetkin is on them so everyone else must be. What kind of logic is that.

 

He is skilled, I've never denied it.

But he's guilty and deserves to be punished. I don't give any credit for that, sorry.

 

Erik Morales fans be like... "Oh yeah, Povetkin's innocent. He's cool. I don't believe the tests."

I do agree that literally the vast majority of world class boxers are on PED's.

But I also agree with testing for and punishing the use of PED's. I just wish that were as easy as it sounds and should be.
