    I can't remember hearing Sasha speak recently (nor doing I understand Russian). How's he sounding? He's taken some poundings in the past few years, even in winning.

    Povetkin will retire, 100%, he doesn't need the money me he was so poor last night.. he is done.

    Whyte has limited options, AJ and Fury are apparently out of the picture.

    Wilder and Ruiz Jr haven't fought for a long time and this Matchroom tactic of trying to abuse fighters inactivity has to stop.

    Ruiz Jr has a new team and will want to have at least one fight to make sure they iron out any creases in the camp/team.

    Wilder has gone rogue, hasn't got a trainer, nobody knows what he is doing, everybody is questioning his mental health... so obviously Hearn, Whyte, Sky Team and then all want to see the Whyte fight next.. yeah of course they do.


    So what's left for Whyte? They won risk Whyte with a very easy fight to make like Hrgovic or Bakole, far too dangerous for Whyte.

    My personal opinion is they should target maybe a Charles Martin, Trevor Bryant or Otto Wallin but I don't think they will.

    Don't be surpised to see Whyte now have a couple of very easy fights, really easy, they won't risk getting in the Povetkin situation again.

    A rematch could be used to open the doors for matchroom in Russia. Also, Povetkin hasn't fought in Russia for quite a while, I can imagine he may want a last fight in his own country.

    I would watch the fight actually, but not sure if that is the best option. On the other hand, whoelse should Povetkin fight if not Whyte, given that he won't retire yet.

    Haha any evidence of that?
    How do you know povetkin didn’t want the fight as quickly as possible so he can move in with his career to another massive payday and into a title fight if AJ and Fury drop the belts.

    do we know if Hearn didn’t offer him another multi million pound payday on PPV if he won the fight vs the Chisora vs Parker winner.

    truth is we don’t know anything except team povetkin seemed more than happy to go through with the fight having had a it pushed back before for both Povetkin and Whyte. He also was very chilled after the fight and never cried foul.

    so seems like you just have a vendetta for Hearn really. Unless you know something no one else is privy to ?

    God knows.
    Before covid live gates in Moscow might be not bad with good advertising, why not.
    Now? I don't think.

    For ppv sales boxer with 1 draw 1 loss 1 win in his last 3 fights might be not so lucrative.
    For eddie to gave him for someone for beatup cos he still does have ranking positions, ofc he might be usable.

    Okolie for example in U.K.

    Other promoters: to feed for Lerena for beatup for example.
