Comments Thread For: Wilder-Povetkin Negotiations Still Going Well, Says Ryabinsky

[fredhopple]

I don't care who can draw who, where they fight or how much they make. I don't get any money no matter what they make or where they fight. They can fight on Mars for all I care.

I just want to see the fight, because it's an exciting fight. Wilder is vulnerable and he KOs fools, that's exciting to me because I don't know what's going to happen next, but his fights could end any time - Deontay has so far stopped all but one of his opponents.

Alexander looked good in his fight agains Perez, and he is respected in the boxing community by many, so I consider this a step up fight for Wilder. Povetkin has already stepped up, we know he lost against Wlad, I thought he lost the Huck fight, and Eddie Chambers was giving him that work early in their fight, plus he gets hit a lot, so he's vulnerable too.

So that's what makes a good fight to me, I'm not sure who will win. So I'll tune in no matter where they fight. Of course Povetkin's people want the fight in Russia, this is normal, and they will use whatever negotiating skill and money they have to make that happen. Haymon will be working on Wilder's behalf. That's the job of representatives, to get the best for their fighters. This is out of my control, so I'll just wait to see what happens, but I'm happy that they are trying to work things out. Bring it on! All this talk about who will KO who is fun, but ultimately means nothing until they fight.

Povetkin is very slow and cannot move well and is so easy to hit that Wilder stop Povetkin within 5 rounds. Huck did beat Povetkin and got hosed. Wlad demolished Povetkin. Wilder in the US should stop Povie easily by KO. Now if the fight is in Russia who knows what happens to Wilder after travelling? It would be a good fight.
