    Ortiz class chin wouldn't last long against Povetkins left hook. KO win early rounds by Povetkin.

    Indeed it is.

    Whyte, Byrd, Chagaev, Hughie, Takam, Perez, Huck and Duhaupas compared to Martin and Jennings.

    Not even sure why this question keeps coming up every now and then. Povetkin far better and more accomplished amateur and pro, far better resume, fought way more punchers with a far better chin, and Povetkin was actually older, officially that is, than Ortiz albeit not by much when he lost to AJ than Ortiz was when he lost to The Dosser the first time. Povetkin had turned 39 just under three weeks earlier and Ortiz was a couple of weeks shy of his 39th birthday.

    Povetkin was only beaten once in his prime, by Wlad who cheated like crazy, and all his seven of his amateur defeats were avenged.

    And all his three losses as a pro came at the hands of much heavier and naturally bigger opponents.

    vs Wlad

    Povetkin 225¾ - Wlad 241¾

    Povetkin 6'2'' - Wlad 6'6''

    Povetkin 75'' reach - Wlad 81''

    vs AJ

    Povetkin 222 - AJ 245¼

    Povetkin 6'2'' - AJ 6'6''

    Povetkin 75'' reach - AJ 82'' reach

    Whyte was a lot heavier with a much longer reach too


    Here's Alexander Pov stopping Ortiz on the outscored rule in the ams. He also drops him too

    Even Current povetkin vs current King Kong
    Would be watchable imo.

    Wlad held for an absurd amount of time.

    Povetkin is a hard man to beat and has one of the best HL KO reels of the decade.

    Povetkin would have destroyed the grandpa, just like he would have destroyed the Bronze bum.

    Sasha wrecks Kong prime for prime.
    One man has the pedigree and the other doesn't...who's Kong's best win as a Pro?

    I agree but what's Jennings best fight? Going the distance with a jaded Vlad?
    Szpilka is probably his next best and after that it's cab drivers....and hairdressers..
    Either way the resume's are wafer thin like Wilder another with shared opponents.

    Why is Duhaupas a good win for Povetkin, but foe Wilder it's not?
