    I'll be rooting for the better man. That will likely be Wlad, if however Povetkin pulls off the upset then more power to him! I hope at least a couple rounds will be close and Povetkin will have his moments landing a couple of combinations.

    Wonder why so many people rooting for Wladimir. Povetkin is way more exciting than him.

    Same reason why people don't want Ward, Floyd and Rigo to lose against a lesser fighter... Quality over excitement.

    And if you saw Pov's opponents with his bogus WBA regular belt, you can pretty much expect a simular lineup when he somehow would win.
    Wouldn't even be surprised if he would give Holyfield another shot... or worse...

    Yes I will watch it.

    Fuk, long time Wlad supporter but may the best man win.

    I think Wlad will stop him late but he might be crawling on canvas at some point:rofl if only Povetkin gets inside.
    Then again, Haye could not drop egg chin so I am not sure If Povetkin manages either...

    This is interesting fight if Povetkin manages to get in his range.:bbb

    I like Wlad better but will be rooting for Alex. Reason being is that the winner is facing Pulev and he stands much better chance against Alex...

    Not many people are picking Wladimir to win. Denis Lebedev is one of the few, but he's just supporting his friend.

    i'll be rooting for povetkin to liberate the hw division, but I know it's an exercise in futility.

    I don't like either but since its the first interesting HW title fight in years, I'll check it out and go for underdog, Povetkin, hes so small compared to supermassive wlad that I feel bad for him.
