Whyte-Povetkin

Aye. That was class.

MTF

 

Fury already trolling Whyte

this picture is from Furys twitter account with the words "40 and Proud"

 

Whyte: "I was bossing it".

I don't know....he'd got the knockdowns.........but Tommy Morrison was "Bossing It" vs Mercer, too.

 

turn the volume down when you are watching this.

I can honestly say I've never until tonight seen trees in a garden during a fight of such relative signifiance.

Strange strange times.

Povetkin actually momentarily looked like a guy who'd won 2 Gold medals.... That was the best little bit of skill I've seen for a while. Floats in a phony jab, pivots, fires.

 

Dickhead got into the ring in a fucking stab vest that said "Maximum Violence" and every other cunt wearing "Black Lives Matter" badges etc.

Guy had been WBC #1 contender for 1000 days.

And he gets knocked out.

In Eddie Hearns back garden.

 

Fuck me, I'd say the combined IQ of Whytes training camp is about 80.

 

So much LOL.

Hearn is a fucking sham. He did this after AJ got iced in New York.

When he should have been backstage with his man.........he was out in front of the cameras chatting shit.

Hearns a prick. Nobody likes him.

 

Primed Whyte for that with all those left hooks to the body (the ones the shitty commentators kept saying were missing).....feignts left hook to the body again, Whyte brings his elbow down, up and boom. Always an element of chance in a one punch KO but nobody can call that a lucky shot, he put the leg work in to set it up

 

Fucking boxing is fucked.

Povetkin returns to a "Hero's Welcome" in Russia.

Andy Ruiz, AJ, Fury take to twitter to mock a man only one of them had fought- and seemed terrified to rematch- at that.

Of Ruiz, Fury and AJ, they have between them 2 fights with each other, one of them a rematch of a shock loss and Ruiz was only a SUB for that fight.

He wasn't even scheduled for that fight.

Boxers sat around on "Social Media" calling each other names.

MAKE. THE. FUCKING. FIGHTS.

Let's face it, a guy who was #1 contender for 1000 days just got knocked out by a guy that lost to Wlad about 8 fucking years ago.

 

Reeeaaaaaaally??

 

I was wondering how long it would take for Irish to mention his hero Wlad

 

8 years ago...........



3 days ago

 

It goes without saying that wlad was a much much better boxer than Whyte is. Still wondering what's your point

 

Todays division is shite. That's my point.

 

And it wasn't shit during wlad glorious reign???

 

The division is considerably better now than it was in 2008 or so, when after prime Wlad the best were Chagaev, Valouev, Peter, Maskaev, Ibragimov etc. Back then it was near impossible to put together a legit top-10 list.

 

Considerably better for not having to watch that hulking octopus wlad, too

 

WHo is the top 10 list today?

The three best guys today

1. Went life an death with Wlad in his last fight.

2. Shaded Wlad in Wlad's 2nd last fight

3. Got iced by a fat tinker that went 12 with old Wlad.

ANd the 4th best guy got fucking blasted last night by a Wlad victim.

 

Yeah, Wlad was good, I sure as hell don't deny that.

Old Maskaev, Peter and McCline weren't, though.

E: and furthermore, listing 2 out of 3 guys who beat Wlad doesn't really make your case either

 

Maskaev? Peaked in 2006.

McCline? 2003?

Peter was finished by 2008.

And Maskaev has two KO wins over Rahman who iced Lewis.

 

Anyways to get back on track I didn't really like at all the social-media nonsense that went on after the Whyte-Povetkin fight. It was very fucking childish.

Get in the ring, freaks, or be silent!!

 

And those were the best guys there were, in 2008, apart from Wlad. Exactly my point

 

Dude Maskaev won the WBC title in 2006 a year after Wlad had already beaten the guy who would dethrone Maskaev. By 2008 Sam Peter was WBC Champ and then Vitali beat him.

 

My son would probably KO Whyte.

 

Nah bro Dillyan is #3

 

Whenever a top guy is dominating a division for years you see people start complaining that the division is weak, nobody good out there to challenge the champion etc. Then almost the minute he retires the division suddenly gets this new blood, you’ve got 3-4 guys all vying for the title, suddenly there’s life again. Happens all the time, I’ve seen it with nearly every dominant champ the last 25 years. It’s not that suddenly everyone is better, it’s just the perception thereof, of course when there’s several guys fighting for the title it seems like the division is strong because, well, there’s a bunch of “championship quality” fighters out there. In reality it’s the same bunch of guys, just minus the one dominant champ that makes them all look like the mediocre fighters they are.

 

There is some point to that, but it is not either/or. Valuev, Chagaev, Ibragimov, Maskaev and McCline would have been a sorry bunch without Wlad as well

 

I agree except for your final part where you say they "are" mediocre. But sort of contradicts the case you're making.

 

Chagaev dropped a split decision to a much younger Povetkin.

Whyte got iced by an older Povetkin.

Maskaev is a 2000-2005 guy.

2005 is the year Wlad BEGAN his dominant run {2006 in fact....the very year AFTER Maskaev had his last meaningful win}

McCline...again, he's a 2005 kind of guy.

You are literally cross-pollinating eras here.
