People only saw his losses because that's what all of his big fights wound up being I'd imagine McCall was the only man he ever beat who he wasn't heavily favoured to.

you could be a world champ now being an peak for 8 round fighter

he goes in with povetkin, wins the first 8 (which is very possible) stays on his feet, world champ

mccall was top form, bruno battered him for 8, lost the last 3 of the last 4

all his big fights werent losses

you are being very negative today arent you?
Not really you can't. He could have absolutely beaten Povetkin though, perhaps even stopped him before 8. I think he'd have every chance to beat most HW's today in fact, but very little against either Klitschko. What's a big fight he won? Don't see how I was being negative any more than usual
