F@cking lovely combo

Povetkin is quality ! A cruiserweight who has spent 15 years as an elite heavyweight.

He's not a cruiserweight. He fights at his natural weight, which through his career has varied between the numbers about 20-30 lbs heavier than the cruiserweight limit.

Fighting at natural weight? Not a single cruiserweight champion fights at their “natural weight”. They all cut weight ( same as any other division ).

Povetkin was still fighting at 91kg as 21 year amateur with same day weigh in.

So he is an undersized heavyweight who could make cruiserweight ( which makes his achievements even more impressive) which was the point I was trying to make.

Cruserweights cut their actual weights for the weigh-ins, but do they gain back about 20-30 lbs after weigh-ins? Povetkin should get rid of both muscles and fat to make the limit, he can't just dehydrate.

Ya, been a long time for him around the scene hasn't it. Some dudes around today hadn't even started boxing when he was already nearing top 10 in the world!

Good that Whyte got knocked sparko, now Fast Eddie can stop using him as a shield to a Fury vs his golden goose Joshua showdown.

I had a few quid on PEDvetkin to win by stoppage at 7/1

Blatantly obvious AJ was only there to build a Whyte fight. Eddie has zero interest in a Fury fight.
