Povetkin Record its a joke!

He stays pretty consistent, though - in activity (having fought biannually for the last decade, save once in 2016 and thrice in 2008), weight (no major fluctuations, always between 220 and 230 for pretty much his entire career), and form. He doesn't show any major signs of slipping. For a heavyweight, 38 means, avoiding injuries and rust, another 4-5 years operating at this same level isn't beyond the scope of reason.

 

true, hes nearly finished at top but can keep going for a bit yet.

 

I think barring unforeseen circumstance we are going to see him either participating in or chasing after title fights until at least 2020, if not a little beyond.

That's about half dozen more fights, including Price. Time for something to happen.

 

yeh he could conceivably win something, despite time being against him.

 

So you concede that I have a point.

 

Povetkin was framed, VADA cleared Povetkin, but the WBC had to protect Wilder, they also framed Ortiz.................Wilder was very afraid to fight Povetkin, he begged WBC to not allow the fight to happen, when VADA cleared Povetkin, WBC still protected Wilder, a Haymon fighter, hint.................If Ortiz wins, he will be framed again..................."IF" that fight happens, 50 years old is not old enough for Wilder................Wilder wants to dig Joe Louis up and fight him corpse.......................would not surprise me at all.............

no, I conceded that you are trying to put word in my mouth, 2nd time round now.

wow you've not dropped it yet days after u should have. 11/10 for commitment, its impressive you can manage to write the words "so you concede i have a point" in reply to " no, you are wrong, you need to compare same stage resumes"

 

Now that Wlad's gone Povetkin's got the deepest resume of any active and relevant HW boxer. Joshua's got the best win on anyone's record of course (well, him and Tyson, once the Furious One returns) but Povetkin has consistently beaten top ten fighters for nearly a decade now, and has by far the greatest experience of the two men.

Outside of that it's fairly slim pickings. Parker's got the wins over Takam, Hughie and Ruiz under his belt; Ortiz has the wins over Jennings, Scott and Thompson; and Wilder has the wins over Stiverne and Scott (though I have my doubts over the legitimacy of that last name). I'd probably put them in that order, with Pulev or Jennings coming after them.

 

He has two top 10 wins to his name over 13 years.

Joshua already has 3 and it will be 4 if he beats Parker.

 

Which two and which three?

 

Farmer is not exactly the sharpest knife in the drawer, nor is he known for his objectivity.

 

You've conceded that's all I needed to know.

 

Yep, Povetkin's overrated as **** by a lot of people. He ducked Wlad for the IBF, then he kept himself relevant on leftovers, didn't stop anyone from fighting for a title, and the two 0's he did manage to take in his decade as a top ten were so good no one ever gave a **** about either of them. Not to mention the two failed drug tests for two different drugs.

I don't think of Pov as a bad boxer, he's great at HW and great for the division, but he is a bit of a tinkerbell.
