    He hasn't got a chance.

    If he comes out throwing all his bombs in round 1 then he has every chance - once he hears the end of round 1 bell then it is time to throw in the towel.

    Can you imagine the size of coffin they're going to need to get that lummox back from Russia.

    Is it really that far fetched to think he might have a chance?

    Probably

    in his last fights he has frozen up against fat sluggers who are barely rated, got sparked cold by one, outworked and tko'd by one and looked terrified against all of them. i cant imagine what will be going through his mind being led into the ring against someone like povetkin. he'll probably have a heart attack during the ring walk. i shouldnt laugh, but i thought he was going to keel over in the interview after his last fight. the guy is just burning pure nervous energy, against fighters who are useless.

    So it could be AJ v Povetkin next?

    He's got a punchers chance...hopefully for his sake he at least makes it interesting...

    Ultimately everyone expects him to get knocked out, so from that perspective there is less pressure on him...who knows, maybe he'll perform...

    Can't see it though personally, think this will be like Audley vs Haye...though at least it isn't main event...

    As a fan would rather see Chisora vs Povetkin, that would be more entertaining while it lasted.

    Good opportunity for big pricey though...his careers already basically written off so what has he got to lose?

    Povetkin mandatory for AJ's WBA, that's a fight I'd like to see...personally think Povetkin is the best challenger out there, he beats parker and Wilder IMO.

    Pov doesn’t beat AJ easily, if at all. He’s not too far off 40 now and looked pretty ropey in his last two fights against poor opposition in Rudenko and Hammer. Personally I think AJ is too big and strong and ko’s him within 5.

    As for Price, I can see him getting stopped in the mid rounds.

    Wow!

    Can’t see this ending well for Price. All wrong with the pressure from Povetkin, he will be gassing real quick.

    But I really hope he can do it, find some self believe and let’s that huge Right hand go! He definitely has that punchers chance.

    Would this even be a cash out because he wouldn't get live changing money lol his last fight was against trash and he got knocked out off hammer so price should be cheap
