Guess you can't call him a duck anymore. Deontay Wilder vs Alexcander Povetkin for May 21 in Moscow. Who wins and how?
eyup since when was /box/ a thing?
mark my words, this nigger will beat povetkin
>>66147536
Yeah as much as I hate him and would like to see him slept I think he's in with a good chance. Would put him ahead of Fury imo.
>>66147512
Since the lead-up to May-Pac.
>rigondeaux
Is he cursed, bros? Does he need new promoters?
>>66147725
how do you promote an old cuban bantamweight with visa issues who fights boring and doesn't speak any english
>>66148330
>fights boring
spotted the casual
>>66148370
m8 he throws <10 punches a round.
>>66147476
i actually haven't watched much of povetkin but i think he wins based on his experience alone. Deontay beat one semi decent fighter (stiverne). Cant really box, and just relies on landing his right hand.
got outboxed by that polish guy last fight. Saved by his right hand.
>>66148492
both get spanked by fury tho.
>>66147725
I appreciate his technical style of fighting but fuck he is a seriously boring fighter, his last fight was against a severaly undermatched opponent where he was supposed to look good but it was a absolute snoozefest.
Povetkin had trouble with bigger guys, but I don't think Wilder is legit enough. Besides, Povetkin's chin isn't like that Polish's literal who. It's very well proven. Meanwhile Wilder's chin is far from proven.
And you know how hard Povetkin hits

He'll need to step up his game and start being very aggressive though if he wants to KO Wilder
Neither of them can go 12 rounds.

>Supporting Rigo's boring style
Boxing hipster detected.

terrible ref calling fight while Perez's hands are down
>>66147476
when did Balotelli become a boxer?
>>66152231
Based Kadyrov

Why is he so based, lads? I wish him all the best in his career

>rigondeaux
Watched HBO highlights. It immediately skipped from walk ins to round 3 where nothing happened. It then skipped to round 8 where a couple of arm hitting shots were traded. It skipped again to round 12 where nothing happened and he was declared the winner of two belts.
This is why I don't watch boxing.
The problem with boxing is that belts don't mean anything. Literally every boxing bout is a championship fight for some shit belt that they hand out like candy.
>>66153125
a chance rigondeaux isn't whole boxing
>>66153121
I shill for him all the time, always try to get people to watch his fights. He doesn't have the fans he deserves imo which sucks. If Kovalev were black people would be calling him the GOAT lhw better than Roy Jones.
Gentlemen how do we fix boxing?
>>66153315
me too. I've shown a fight of his to a German friend (I think vs Pascal 1) and he was disappointed right away because he's white. He didn't like the whole fight even towards end, because he's used to Ali, Tyson and all the black heavyweights.
Kovalev is difficult to market for casuals, even though he's very entertaining and offensive. Baffling
>>66153319
remove currency and become a socialist state
>>66153319
as much as it pains me to say this, there are 2 realistic "solutions"
First is realistic but very improbable, is to remove all the non-belts and just keep the WBC/WBO and to introduce a monopoly in boxing
Second is for boxing to come back home to the USA. If America was great again at boxing, it would fix many issues
>>66153389
they're about to drop american football because of the concussion scandal, boxing is even worse
this will be a great fight!!
>>66151246
He had 6 days to prepare and didn't take any risks whatsoever in the fight, possibly because he got knocked down twice in his previous bout. He was much more aggressive as an amateur but now he's so damn careful it does get boring at times. He said he his next fight will be "very big" tho
>>66156800
He probably said that because he thought he had the winner of Frampton/Quigg cornered.
Now Frampton is going to lose to LSC instead of Rigo.
>>66147476
all i know is both get KTFO by Luis Ortiz
>>66147725
he takes playing it safe to an all new level. i hope he never fights on a big card again
>>66153319
Follow the UFC model, make the fights everyone wants to see and have big events every 1-2 months,
>>66157433
because the UFC delivered on GSP VS SILVA and SILVA VS JON JONES.
>>66153121
my fav fighter today. he has that search and destroy style that always makes for excitement
>>66157520
ok and what about everyone else?
also, give Floyd control over everything boxing,
>>66157571
and fedor vs brock, fedor vs couture, rousey vs cyborg. the fact is the ufc has failed to deliver on superfights much more than boxing in the last few years
>>66157520
Neither of those were ever going to conceivably happen
Silva was too big for GSP and Jones was too big for Silva
>>66157602
Not really desu, the fight everyone wants to see in boxing atm is GGG vs Canelo but when the fuck is that gonna happen? Even Broner vs Pacquiao would of been huge.
>>66157622
so fertita just hyped up those fights to con fans?
>>66157631
you act like boxing fans have been asking for GGG vs canelo for years. that fight has literally been a thing for maybe a year or so. meanwhile the ufc was hyping some of those superfights i mentioned since 2012
>>66157640
Yep
A real legitimate superfight that should have come through was Aldo-Pettis, it almost did then Pettis got hurt
>>66157660
so another super fight they failed to deliver on
March and april is gunna be pretty based for /box/ weve got some decent fights coming up
>>66157677
The only one that could've conceivably come to fruition
I guess Ronda-Cyborg is another but people were never really itching for that one in terms of wanting to see a good fight rather than see Ronda get fucking crushed
David Lemieux was supposed to fight at the weekend but he came in too fat
Pic related ruins boxers and that's why no-one wants to fight him
