    If Povetkin existed back then, nobody woulda talk about Baer or the toothless Shark.

    I don't get your point mate.

    He said many people hold the opinion that Sharkey would beat Povetkin, I wanna see if that's true.

    Is that alright for you sweetheart?

    My point is that it is a nonsense. You have your opinion and he has his opinion

    You've got no point, you're white knighting.

    He said something that is either true, or it isn't.

    I want to figure out which one it is.


    It's not a matter of opinion.

    That alright with you sweetheart?

    In case you hadn't figured it out yet, Povetkin is done.

    He was very lucky to get that draw against Michael Hunter.

    As things stand at the moment, a prime Sharkey would beat him very convincingly.

    Fighting against Joe Louis or Jack Dempsey is different than fighting against Michael Hunter.

    Besides, Sharkey beat up Dempsey quite badly in this fight.

    Guess you didn't really watch the video or you'd see the multiple times Povetkin got rocked. Prime Sharkey got knocked out and still looks light years better against Dempsey than Povetkin did against Hunter.

    I'll do you one better kid, I watched the fight live when it was on.

    He absolutely does not, and how about this for you:
    Michael Hunter's fundamentals and technical ability, are in another solar system compared to Dempsey.


    How about this, you point me to the footage of Sharkeys ten best wins, and I'll reasses my opinion.
    Oh wait, you can't, the footage isn't there.

    I bet you've seen as much footage of Povetkin, as you have of Sharkey.
    You're nothing but a contrarian.

    That's fine. Dempsey wasn't a technical fighter. That would mean more if you said his technical skills were comparable to Joe Louis, Larry Holmes, Lennox Lewis, or Wlad. Against Dempsey, a sophisticated brawler, it doesn't mean much.

    You'd be better served if I handed you a dictionary.

    I've seen enough of both to determine that prime Sharkey would defeat 40 year old Povetkin who was nearly stopped by a fat 230 lbr.

    With this kind of thinking we would have never had the "Who's a Better All-Around Fighter: Carnera or Bowe?" thread...

    You're a casual, get over yourself.

    You can hand me a dictionary.
    It would be nice to get something back for all these Ls I'm handing you.
