As I was explained last year this whole "must defend the title" sham is just that, a sham. Drop a belt, fight Wilder, pick up a belt, same amount of belts. Here we are the next year and you all are still buying this. It's a little sad. Could have fought Wilder instead of Pulev, must defend the belt, turned out to be Takam, must defend the belt.

Same number of belts again! It's the fights that matter! Povetkin looked absolute shiite!
