Would Muhammad Ali have been Dropped by Povetkin's Left Hook?

I just gave you an explanation of what happens, if all you can do is to respond with an insult, then you're a very limited individual.

 

Povetkin's left hook was (is) far more versatile than Brewster's. Brewster was all about winding up and gunning for as much power as possible; in that regard it's comparable to Whyte's. Pov's left hook is intimately tied into his combination punching, in fact his whole game. He can land it at range, in close, chain it in twos or threes, torque it into an uppercut or body shot. It never sets him off balance if he misses, and it has an extremely high connect rate and level of accuracy. It's very close to some of the best left hooks the division has seen.

 

You're overrating him now. . Like I said he has an excellent left hook but it was often thrown in the same sequence which made his attacks very predictable. It could be seen coming and defended against by elite levelers. There was no feints or creativity when it came to throwing a left hook by Povetkin.

He would have done something with it against Klitschko if it was one of the best hooks ever seen in over 100 years of boxing. . Yeah he was completely cheated by Klitschko , but still , he could do nothing with it from round 1 to round 12.
Tyson was was being held constantly by Smith and Ferguson yet still manged to sneak in his left hook and connect clean plenty of times. Povetkin never changed the angles , sequence , feinted or did anything to overcome the cheating by Klitschko.

Brewster who was also being bear hugged by Wlad still manged to land ferocious left hooks to body and head. His left was more dynamic , faster and harder to defend against.

It in no way resembles Whyte who needed to stand still to get decent leverage on his left hook.
Breswter came forward with fluid technically sound hooks almost Joe Frazier like.
One thing is for certain , if Brewster had fought Marco Hook , you would have seen an ending identical to Frazier vs Foster.

 

Yes, Povetkin would drop Ali. Povetkin had ways of landing a left hook that Ali was never exposed to. It might take a few rounds but Povetkin would keep working sat the punch and land it.

 

Not even debatable IMO.
The title of this topic is Would Muhammad Ali have been Dropped by Povetkin's Left Hook?
Not Would Ali has been hit flush by a Povetkin left hook? Which is the way many are answering this topic.

Banks & Cooper were hardly full CWs and when Frazier dropped Ali he was ~206#. 100% Pov could drop Ali and if he landed a shot like the one that KTFO of Dillion most likely he stops Ali. Very likely if there's a minute plus left in the round.

 

Okay. Here's my answer. Povetkin probably would have dropped Ali ( with a 2 or 3 fight series ) with his hook judging by those who had good left hooks, and Povetkin's accuracy with the punch, skill, power and durability to hang in there for many rounds until he lands it.

Ali had a low guard and was open to this punch especially when his feet were not set.

 

If you disagree, tell me who else hit him flush then.

 

It was (almost) funny for a while but i have no idea how so many keep falling for the bait. You and Serb were a match made in heaven.

 

How much was Povetkins power improved by Peds?

 

So you have no answer for my question, do you ?
Why do you have to deviate from my question ?!? If you think you are right, then come up with some arguments and examples, don't just act like you're superior.

 

Cast your line elsewhere.

 

Don't even know what that is supposed to mean

 

As Povetkin aged, he did used PED's however he always had a good left hook with power it it. At the time of the test, Povetkin was in his late 30's, age 37-38 I think, past his best. So my answer is the PED's brought him back up to the strength of his prime.

Wilder used the drug test to skip Povetkin all together.

See how easy that was Dino? The next time I ask about Roy Jones testing 5x the limit, or James Toney being positive, try a reply for once.

This is an Ali and Povetkin thread, your reply is better suited for who hit harder between GGG and Roy Jones, who was a big time drug cheat. Try answer my question there.

Thanks.
