It's crazy how Povetkin is still lingering among the top contenders

[Blaze500]

he's such an elite fighter, he's been virtually a top contender for a decade now, and he still has it. Of course he is slowing down but he has one of the all time great left hooks

unfortunately he wasn't big enough for the super heavies to be a dominant champion... He was unfortunately in Wlad's era and then you had the rise of the giants of Fury, Joshua and Wilder. He was outboxing Joshua before he got knocked out

it would be crazy if he Knocks out Whyte again but wouldn't be suprised. Povetkin is that dude

That David Price knockout

He also was on PEDs for a good part of his career

 

[The Ruler 09]

Povetkin will go down in history as a very good heavyweight.

I’m sure a lot of them are

He also was on PEDs for a good part of his career

the stuff he was on though was essentially legal until about 2016 though

 

[NZA]

he was juiced but he has more skill than a lot of the really tall guys. skill will always keep him in the mix

Battle of the 40 year olds

who do you favor in a fight Povetkin or Luis Ortiz?

 

[Dallas' 4 Eva]

A lot of them Euro's are, they drug testing standards aint as strict as in the US.

Povetkin 9 out of 10 times. Ortiz is overrated af imo. I saw him fight Dave Allen a couple years back and that told me everything I needed to know. He loses that fight to Michael Hunter that Povetkin took to a draw. He's not good at all with tough pressure fighters.
