    After Wlad I think he said to himself if you cant beat em then join em. He didnt have the pop before Wlad that he has now. Since losing to Wlad he has faced 3 fighters who had only 1 loss on their record and knocked them all out. He even looks bigger to me.
    Charr 26-1 KO 7
    Takam 30-1-1 KO 10
    Perez 21-1-1 TKO 1

    Now he faces Wach next week who is 31-1 whos only loss came against Wlad when Wach tested positive for using anabolic steroids.

    Now that Wach is off steroids and Povetkin is on them (in my opinion) I can see Povetkin continue his impressive knock out streak against another tough 1 loss opponent. Cant wait to see if this happens since Wach might have the best chin in the game. We all know it's the biggest chin on the planet. You have to give Povetkin credit for facing the competition that he does unlike other Heavyweights.

    Povetkin was slacking for years, getting by on natural talent alone.... Let's not forget Atlas damaged him a bit too. I just think the loss to Wlad lit a fire under him.

    I have my suspicions. And I'm leaning towards yes.

    Maybe, for all we know all top contenders in this sport are on something.

    If he was american, there would be a 95% chance that hes on the roids.
    as hes from russia, i think its 50/50.

    nono jeff. everyone knows that PED use in boxing in america is rife.
    now if you were talking about a russian shotputter or discus thrower or weightlifter ill have to agree.

    Good HW fights in the next 6 weeks. Povetkin vs Wach , Wlad vs Fury and Jennings vs Ortiz which is an interesting match up. Wilder and Pulev are coming off recent wins also.
    Would love to see Wilder vs Povetkin.

    Another good HW fight in the next 6 weeks is Anthony Joshua 14-0 (14 ko's) against Dillian Whyte 16-0 (13 ko's).

    Tom Schwarz v.s Ilja Mezencev in a couple of weeks as well. Nowhere near the profile of any of fights you mentioned, but it's always nice to see undefeated HW prospects go at it.

    can't have a impressive performance anymore without being a ped cheat, and if you upset a fighter you were expected to lose against your either a ped cheat or there shot or both, no such thing as fighters improving and rededicating themselves to the sport and it will be a cold day in hell when any fighter gets any credit for anything from the "fans" here.

    Probably, since Vlad has been on PEDs since before and after the Olympics.
