    Seeing him fight several times, I cannot, for the life of me, think of why anyone in the top 15 would be afraid to fight the man.

    You should ask that question to Mike Perez.

    After watching your hero Wilder go through hell against someone outside the top 10, you decide to vent your frustrations on Povetkin :patsch

    Didn't Huck say he had really bad body odor? Or was that the other way around?

    It's not just Povetkin though, Wilder is reluctant to fight any top10 HW unless he's mandated to do so.

    Im not a big Wilder fan at all. Povetkin has some skills, but people here talk of him as if he is some kinda killer and I dont see it.

    Povetkin is lead footed and was knocked down by a jab. I have no idea why this board is all over his nuts.

    That's right! Him and his camp said that was the cause of his subpar performance with Huck? Right?

    Povetkin was extremely out of shape when he fought Huck. If Povetkin would fight Huck now he would knock Huck out easily...............Povetkin was sucking wind early in that fight................knocking out Perez in the first round was very impressive..............not to mention he won gold in the Olympics, super heavyweight division...................
