    Not sure if Joshua or his fans are taking Povetkin seriously. But trust me, they will be making a huge mistake if they aren't.

    Nah Potvetkin is cooked frigging Price made him to the silly dance. Juiceshua is the second best HW on the planet even though he cheats to get there ya gotta give him credit his steroids work.

    Hey, whaddya know. Finally found one.

    Reckon Joshua's fans are right to not be bothered by Povetkin. Povetkin's whole career is about fighting leftovers to stay relevant. He hardly ever steps up to the plate and when he does he hardly ever actually gets in the ring. Ducked Wlad for a decade, stopped no one who debuted after him from fighting for a title before him, and he's been a top ten for over a decade while only ever fighting two unbeaten fighters neither of which ever achieved much before or after Pov.

    I don't see what Joshua needs to respect. I think AJ can walk him down and bang him out if Josh likes.

    Povetkin ain't got a patch on Joshua, he's getting knocked out, don't know which round but it will be probably
    between the 4th and the 8th round, could be even faster.

    Other than a lucky punch how could Povetkin win this fight ? Parker and Takam survived because they fought on the backfoot, Povetkin can't fight on the backfoot and he won't do it.

    Povetkin will trade punches with Joshua and he will get hurt and eventually kiss the floor, if the Povetkin left hook
    lands though Joshua could be in trouble.

    Has Povetkin grown taller in the last few months?

    Nice one. Looking forward to it, i also hope Joshua is taking him very seriously. Cant speak for his fans other than myself but i am. Im expecting to see AJ keeping the Russian at the end of his jab and picking him off with jab-single hook combos until something comes of it aswell as keeping him at bay cuz Povetkin doesnt like tall fighters with a decent jab. The Russians older now, slower and hopefully clean which im sure he will be but he still has the power a good tecnique when in range and he brings his power shots up and likes to throw around a gaurd. These are things ive seen catching Joshua unaware more than once.

    If Joshua is fit, focused, discaplined and on it this should be a reletivaly easy fight for him but if he isnt one of those things Povetkin can definatly score the upset.

    I’m surprised Eddie’s postermaker didn’t put Wilder and Fury on it since that’s all he’s been talking about.

    He will run and clinch (inspired by the Klitschko fight). The referee won't mind it, I'm sure...
    The outcome will depend on how good/bad current Povetkin's stamina is. If Povetkin gets obviously tired, Joshua might even finish him in the second part of the fight.
