    Who should Povetkin fight next??

    I was impressed with his preformance against Hunter. Maybe a top 100 guy & ride off into the sun set??

    I wouldnt be against most of the opponents listed.

    This how i think they fair:

    Hunter - i had Hunter edging thenfight and I reckon hunter would win it much clearer next time.

    Ruiz & Whyte are 50/50 fights which would be very entertaining.

    Vs Ortiz - Povetkin would win by KO in between rounds 4 -6.

    Vs Breazeale- pointless fight, Povetkin would KO him in thenfirst few rounds.

    I wouldnt mind seeing Povetkin against the likes of Usyk, Bakole, Hrgovic and Parker.

    Povetkin vs Chisora. While Povetkin at his best is a clear level above Chisora right now this is a great fight. Two contenders that have always been willing to face anyone both on the outside looking in - winner gets title shot.
    Otherwise retire for Sasha

    It is time Povetkin retired

    He doesn’t have the intensity levels he had 4-5 years ago and isn’t good enough to challenge for titles.

    It is a shame he never won a world title because there have been many fighters far worse than him that have won world titles. The Klitschko era sucked for him to be a part of.

    He was fortunate to get away with the draw there and should retire and do something else with his life.
