Alexander Povetkin would have been the best opponent Mike Tyson ever faced in the 1980's, and would have beaten Larry Holmes soundly imo.

Alexander Povetkin would have been undisputed champion from the 1970's backwards virtually unchallenged.
I did not go that far. Povetkin is a shade above Axel Shulz.
LOL Yeah sure, a shade above Axel Schultz ey. Likely story. I'm sure many will reason that conclusion with you.

Even if we are to believe this story anyway, this is the same Axel Scultz that rightfully won the lineal HW championship vs George Foreman wasn't it? The same George Foreman which bested Briggs only to be robbed ironically too. See how poorly the logic can be applied?

All we can say with certain is that Schultz played in the same league as Briggs and Foreman and that Povetkin was better than Schultz!
