    You glance at records too much, thats why your in this situation.

    He'd just beat Helenius and lost to the num1 at hw winning arguably 3/4 rounds.

    Povetkin is the more fundamentally sound fighter? Gold medal in the Olympics. never been Ko'd actually tried to win VS Wlad... Haye has power I would argue that it is Haye who brings the "punchers chance between them two.

    Haye did try to beat Wlad, he's not an inside fighter.


    What does that have to do with Haye vs Povetkin.

    Povetkin isn't some limited pit fighter or a street thug. He was an elite amateur super HW and has tons of experience and success in both amateurs and pros.

    He is an elite fighter that brings smart pressure and combinations to the table. It's disrespectful to compare him to someone like Chisora. He wouldn't rush at Haye carelessly, he's well schooled and disciplined and that's something Haye faced only once against Wlad. Imo he'd comfortably outbox Haye and probably knock him out. Haye has a punchers chance and nothing more in this matchup Imo.

    Povetkin is arguably #2 in world (excluding Vitali) and there is a reason for that. The only guy disputing that claim is Pulev, not Haye.

    Povetkin rushed at Huck carelessly and lost that fight.

    Audley Harrison beat Lezin twice as an amateur, Lezin beat Wlad and Vitali. Audley arguably would have beat them as an amateur.

    Does that make him an elite pro?

    Povetkin couldn't outbox Huck but he'd comfortably outbox Haye? Haye is faster, punches harder, better defensively etc struggling to see what Povetkin does better here.

    Id pick Chisora to stop Povetkin, Chisora brings relentless workrate don't think Povetkins stamina would hold up

    Honestly agree on both.

    Klithuggers will do anything to make a Wlad win look better, I remember them even trying to make a case for Rahman and Mercer not being shot to **** by the time Wlad got to them.

    Povetkin has the right size and style for Haye to do his worst.

    so i'm going for a late stoppage for Haye. but if Pov gets hurt earlier in the fight, Haye isn't going to stand around and let him survive. no. he'll end it right there and then.

    you can't fault Haye when it comes to finishing hurt opponents.

    Im a big Huck fan.. but most of the shots he hit Povetkin with were illegal rabid punches... very close fight, but Povetkin did enough to win. No Robbery.

    The Haye train rolls on. A bunch of rubes from the other side of the world believing this soft, fighter is legit.

    Povetkin is tailor-made for David Haye. There's a good reason why Pov has ducked David since the ams. Haye by mid round stoppage.
