"After Wilder's Won, Does Povetkin Become a Bum?" Wilder v Povetkin SHOWTIME May 21st Fight Thread

[yawn]

I'm really excited bout this matchup but also very tepid at the same time

Only 8 Weeks till May 21st, no fight venue and no tickets on sale

With Povetkin's history of pulling out of fights I can't help but feel

If Povetkin does go through with it, this will be his toughest matchup to date

A young athletic American, who towers over him and throws dynamite

Like a true American I'll be rooting for Wilder and doing my best to attend the event

#BombSquad ready to go behind the iron curtain and body Russia's last hope

Wilder all the way Pov has problems wit taller fighters if Deontay can stay outside he should get decision but dont let Pov inside

 

[H.I.M.]

From a matchup standpoint, should be the easiest fight Wilder's had in a while...comfortable pts win or mid-to-late rds KO. Early KO wouldn't shock me, but Wilder's been alot more patient and measured with throwing his right hand as of late...probably keep the jab in his face for a few rds until the lanes open up for that right hand...Povetkin isn't going to be hard to find with that right hand from the very get-go...if Wilder decides to open up early.

How come they couldn't do a Wilder vs Martin fight ?
