5 Best: Chris Byrd Mike Perez Eddie Chambers Mahmoud Charr Andrzej Wawrzyk In no particular order. And honorable mention to the Anthony Joshua fight, even tho he lost it. The couple fights prior to this one, and also afterwards, Povetkin did not look all that good - but he looked pretty good against Joshua. 5 Worst: Dillian Whyte II Marco Huck Wladimir Klitschko David Price Christian Hammer
I'll tip my hat to his Chagaev and Hunter performances. Chagaev because he was a legit tough dude and at the top of his powers at the time. Not easy to beat a guy like that. Hunter because Povetkin was old and kind of shopworn going up against a young lion with momentum. Usually the older fighter loses those. Also knocking out a determined looking version of Price was not bad. David could crack hard and was always dangerous.
Roided povetkin from the charr to duhaupas fight would have beaten most heavyweights, it was a crazy run lol
1) Whyte. To come from behind and deliver arguably the best HW one shot KO of the last 20 years. Yeah no doubt. He actually lifted Whyte slightly off the canvas with that uppercut. 2) Takam. Awesome fight 3) Perez. Looked awesome and ended it with a quick crafty right hook. 4) Chagaev. Again dug deep to defeat a still VERY good fighter in Ruslan. Always thought prime Chagaev was a very underrated fighter. Woulda LOVED to have seen Ibragimov vs Chagaev! 5) Chambers. Beating Chambers was no easy task back then.
