    Povetkin fights for legacy and his countrys honor, while Wilder only fights for money and getting more instagram followers.

    Povetkin is willing to take 7 million purse against Joshua, while Wilder wants atleast 30M to accept the fight, which would be about 50% purse.

    Pedvetkin is 39 years old does not have a belt and was beatin very easily last time he tried to step up. Also let me point out he’s been The mando to two belts for quite sometime. Point is this is his last chance to get a belt truthfully speaking he’s cheated more than once and definitely deserved a lifetime ban

    Beaten by the Best HW of this era/ one of the beat HW's ever/ 2nd longest reigning World champ ever/ the man who couldn't be beaten! ONE loss on POINTS in his whole career to an ATG (who was using fouling/dirty tactics) is nothing derogatory unless you are DESPERATE to discredit Povetkin :thumbsup:

    Sorry I got no love for a PED using cheat and if you say the levels where low. I’m going to point to the fact that he’s failed more than two test lol. Congratz you cheater couldn’t even win. After Joshua takes his head off I want him to retire but before that I want Joshua to literally ruin his well being after boxing for being a cheating homosexual

    I'm guessing English isn't your first language or you are dumb cause I can't even understand some of what you wrote. You desperate Povetkin haters talk as if Povetkin is the only boxer ever to fail a drugs test lol, about a 1/3 of all heavies have failed a drugs test lol, and about another 1/3 including Joshua haven't been caught yet. Povetkin was a real Olympic Gold medalist, he was a top amateur and he's been a top pro, he's been a winner ever since he laced up the gloves, Joshua wouldn't even dare mention his name a few years ago - AJ would have had no chance at all then, he's finally aged in his last 2 fights ( which is what they were waiting for) but it wouldn't surprise me at all if he knocks the big stiff fake Gold medalist out!

    I agree

    Deontay is a straw hat wearing hillbilly bum from the swamps of alabama.

    He has never shown any desire to step up in his career EXCEPT when there's a MASSIVE payday possible and even then he wants more than 10x his previous highest purse though.

    A protected bum looking to cash out.

    I feel sorry for his ignorant fans.

    You conveniently omit so many other factors that directly influence the type of purse Wilder should and could command. Fighting for honor is awesome however in Wilders case fighting for 7 millions would be foolish, unintelligent and would show a serious lack in business judgement.

    Fighting for honor and your country was great when the opposing kingdom threatened to pillage and plunder your land a thousand years ago. Now in 2018 This train of thought dosent make much logical sense without leveraging some really decent financial gain.

    Povetkins resume shits all over Wilders who despite the failed drug test would fight Ortiz but not Povetkin. Explain that logic to me.

    Povetkin wouldn’t have faired well against any heavyweight champion with a good jab and 4-5 inch height advantage. There’s really nothing to argue regarding what’s considered his kryptonite. Not sure why you're irrationally passionate over the subject.

    erm , maybe thats because Povetkin is a mandatory challenger who is only worth 25% of the purse?

    Wilder could barely afford a jar of honey with the pay packet Hearns was offering him.

    Pedvetkins record is trash for someone who cheated his entire career. Ortiz shouldn’t have gotten the fight with Wilder either. As he’s a cheating ******* as well. Do we know how good either one is really ?!? I mean without the PEDS we will never know. All we will know is he didn’t have the courage or heart to keep a level playing field

    I understand why people don't like Povetkin. I don't care for him either. But what are your thoughts on Canelo? I only ask as people seem to have one rule for one when it comes to those two.

    Sure he can fight Joshua for much less, and he will have to. The fight won't make as much. Povetkin is a chance if he turns up. Takam wasn't far off and Parker wasn't embarrassed. Povetkin would best those two guys on his night. I hope he knocks Joshua out cold. That would be great.
