    But Povetkin is not a champion so that's irrelevant to this question. :hey

    Back when Bruno was around he was the people's champion. In fact, I think he was second only to Princess Diana over here on beloved national treasures.

    The WBC these days would see the green in that and make him Wilder's mando. (In fact Joshua, who's not as popular is already number 2)

    Bruno would destroy Wilder. So, yes, he would be a belt holder.

    The Polish God Adam never hurt Arreola. This was after Arreola was depressed and gouged himself with tacos and enchiladas.


    Either way, Wilder knocks out Arreola, Adamek, Stiverne and Lennox Lewis all in the same night.

    The man is simply a freak a nature, a freak of nature with the strongest punch in the world. :yep

    Joshua isn't number two yet, and I don't think he's ready to be favored h2h over Povetkin.

    No. He would never come close to beating Wlad. I also believe he loses to Povetkin. So he would be a solid #3 HW.

    But Vlad isn't the only belt holder at Heavyweight, at Povetkin ain't one himself.

    He gets stopped by Wlad and Povetkin. After these two he would probably be victorious against most of them.
