    Povetkin should work Wilder's body.

    Charr took plenty, Wilder's chin is probably as good if not better than Manuel's, so no he'll be able to absorb plenty.

    Based on what? Charr has been knocked out three times, most recently an unknown Latvian fighter knocked him out quicker than Povetkin.

    Considering Povetkin's amount of mileage as both an amateur and pro, his age, and his pressuring style that involves taking punches, he's on track for a decline pretty soon. Too bad, because Povetkin has been an extremely good fighter for a long time.

    Don't know if it will first show up against Wilder, but I wouldn't be surprised.

    Imagine what Povetkin is going to do to that freakishly small head and those skinny little chicken legs of Wilder. Its going to be BOOM, BOOM, BOOM.

    CHICKEN DANCE time :party:party:party:banana:banana

    And what is Wilder's similarity with Seth Mitchell other than they are both African Americans?

    The more Wilder fights the better he gets. 3 fights ago I would have favored Povektin. However Wilder is getting better at fighting on the back foot. He's adopted the check hook while coming off the rope and his jab has improved. If Povektin doesn't land hard and flush in the first 5 then he won't land anything significant later on. I suspect most of Povektin shots will land at the end of the punch with Wilder moving back. Hardly any force on them. Wilder will be too mobile for Povektin in this fight and I highly doubt Wilder gets sloppy. He's going to take this fight more serious than any fight before.
