PTBF 2018 - JOSHUA/POVETKIN (1.5X) - #32 - SEP 22

[armageto]

How can this be a 1.5 instead of a 2X ? There won't come any better fight then this this year.

Fury vs Wilder is a better fight

Garcia vs Spence, if they sign it, is a better fight.

This fight wasn't on a X2 level. AJ was a -1300 or so favorite. If anything, it should have been 1.25 or regular points.

The rank 1 vs the rank 3 of the entire world, in heavyweight and you suggest it should be a 1.25?
On top of that, both of them defeated an other active olympic super heavyweight champion, combined they have defeated more olympic champions as any heavyweight has done this century (and TBH I think ever in history), out of the rest of the entire heavyweight pro boxing league combined nobody can say such things.
I'm sorry, but this was an absolute elite level fight of the most interesting weightclass out there.

AJ was a -1300 range favorite for a reason. Povetkin was a faded HW,and never as great as you made him out. He was stopped, his career is over. Move on.....

Sounds like I got it about right.

It was an important fight for the Heavyweight division, but not the best possible and it featured a tremendous favorite.
