Based on the responses from people you'd wonder how povetkins face looked so grotesque after just a wrestling match? Povetkins face looked like he got hit with a sledgehammer about 50 times
a guy as big and as powerful as wlad can do that with about 10 clean punches. Which really was about all he landed.
Wlad looked like total ****, fought like total ****, and fought dirty as anyone who has ever fought. It was disgusting to watch.
Povetkin got dominated and humiliated in every facet yesterday. Cry about the clinching all you want, but Alexander got outboxed, outfought, outbrawled, and flat out beat up. It was a complete outclassing by an older champ and Povetkin deserves credit for at least having the heart to finish the fight for his countrymen.
Alexander Povetkin: Things didnt quite go as well as I wanted, but I never give up. Of course, he was the better fighter. Wladimir is the best boxer in the world. It was a fair fight. I gave everything. I will try to train more.
That was a nasty ass fight to watch. Wlad is just totally disgusting to watch now. And he's only getting worse as he gets older. The days of when good comp was coming up are dead in the division right now. Wlad is very lucky to be facing bums in every defense. History won't rank him with the best. They could've but what you saw last night is how he truly fights when you go at him.
it was the strangest **** I've ever seen. huge foulfest on Wlad's part. and it seemed as if everyone was in on it including Alexander, his team and obviously the well paid ref.
So why are fans and even Wlad's own fans criticizing his performance? That was classic hvw boxing, lmao? That was the hvw champion of the world fighting dirty and ugly. You know it, I know it, and when Pov looks at the film, he will know it. Pov is a good sport. He will say the right things. You can't cry over spilled milk.
also, the "knockdowns" in round 7 were absolutely ridiculous. love to see what Max and Roy had to say when the cameras were off.
What can Roy say? He has been KOed how many times now? And on 3 continents :roflatsch Roy was probably having flashbacks to getting KOed by the guy that looks like a Russian Popeye
