Povetkin has less chances than a snowball in hell.

He's short, old, shot to ****, and he was never that good to begin with, ESPECIALLY against people who have a size advantage over him.

He doesn't know how to cut the ring, how to evade shots, his defense is nothing more than loosely raising his gloves after his opponent has already hit him at least once.
Povetkin doesn't even have power. Nor does he know how to use what little he got. He doesn't fight like someone his size should fight.

Does that sound good against someone with the reach and power of Joshua?

If you claim this isn't an horrible mismatch for everyone involved, please do explain why do you think Povetkin has a chance after what he did against Wladimir Klitschko, AKA Joshua's prototype.

Go ahead. Try to make up some imaginary reason why Povetkin has somehow bettered himself by getting older, fighting nobodies and barely fighting after being completely, utterly dismantled by Wladimir Klitschko like 10 years ago.

He's now going up against a younger version of that same Wladimir- while himself being older- and this time he's on enemy soil too.

Not that it would change anything, because Joshua stops Povetkin in the round he chooses- even the first, but that's unlikely because Joshua is very cautious.

I'd say Povetkin doesn't last more than 3-4 rounds, and that's being generous.

Wladimir was satisfied with knocking him down "only" 4 times and dragging the fight for the sake of it, Joshua will go for the stoppage simply because Povetkin will be barely standing even if Joshua just used the jab alone.

Povetkin stopped Takam cold in a slugfest. Joshua had problems in even landing flush on Takam and was gifted a Brit stoppage at a time when his gas tank was on E. That's why I think this will not only be competitive, but that Povetkin also has a good chance to win.

Sure tell that to Takam, Mariusz Wach, Duhuapas..... Guys that Joshua struggled with, Wilder struggled with, Klitschko... Povetkin is no pushover.. But keep thinking that!!! I know Joshua is thinking the exact same thing as u!! Just wait til Joshua ends up on the canvas like Wladimir Klitschko against Corrie Sanders.

I really, really hope Joshua overlooks him and ends up as sandwich spread. Povetkin seems like an inoffensive guy in interviews and pressers. Easy to underestimate him, especially since he's fairly creaking along in years. Fingers crossed.
