Oh look You haven't posted since Wilder UD12 Stiverne. The day Povetkin wins and people start talking about Wilder getting ko'd again, you mysteriously return to give us your insight. atsch
I also believe that Perez would beat Wilder. Wilder just likes to fight carnival fat men, Las Vegas hooker, and professional divers.
Problem is, Povetkin can't fight tall opponents. He simply can't. He doesn't punch straight, and he doesn't know how to enter a reach to unload bombs. His only hope would be to work the body HARD Wilder has the midsection of a WASP, he couldn't take many body shots.
Sure it does,up to a certain degree at least.Wilder -with head gear-was knocked down 3 times before he was stopped by Romanov. You jester call Povetkin a gold olmypic medalist a bum who got his ass handed by Wilder.Is this the line of arguments you want to employ to convince other people here on esb?? Povetkin a bum,but Wilder a God as he won bronze at the olymics and has beaten a bunch of no-hopers and a fringe contender named Stiverne???? You are a fan boy and not a box aficionado.You should get the f..... out of here and join a more suitable forum elsewhere.hi:
Each of them were considered solid opponents before the fight. Charr was a fraud though but many people gave him a lot of credit. However, both Takam (who defeated Thompson and had a draw against Perez) and Perez (defeated Abdusalamov in a war, had a close fight with Jennings) are solid TOP-15 fighters. Povetkin was a little bit lucky to knock Perez out so early, that's heavyweight division, but he would in any event knock him our sooner or later. For me Povetkin is №2 after Wladimir Klitschko, while Wilder is №4 after Tyson Fury.
Povetkin will always perform against HW`s his size.The problem is when he meets someone that has significant height/weight/reach advantage. I want to see him vs Wach,Pulev,Helenius,Fury,Wilder etc etc.Just no Clinchko rematch please,that was dreadful and will be exactly the same if they fight again. Theres no referee in this world that will DQ Clinchko and end his 10 years + reign and 20+ title defenses,too much money involved after all.
Exactly. Wilder is a fraud, a product of VERY careful matchmaking to create a false impression he is a "power puncher" when every stiff he faced was either totally overmatched, or showed up to fall down or both. His opposition was among the most pathetic I have ever seen a boxer face in 35 years of following boxing and he faced these sorts of guys for much longer. In fact, he's now going back to facing this level of "opposition." Real HWs at the top of their game will starch this fraud every time.
