It was an ugly fight. But like many of Wlad's other opponents, Povetkin was afraid to throw punches.

Povetkin threw an average of 23 punches a round and landed 5. That's wasting your chance at the title in my book.


You shit-kicking, stinky, horse-manure-smelling motherfucker you! If you ever get out of line over there again, I'll smash your fucking head so hard you won't be able to get that cowboy hat on. You hear me? Fucking hick. -Nicky (Casino)
