Does Povetkin see rd 10 against Joshua ? Yes or no ?

He wont mate

 

It's absolutely possible. The first couple of rounds will tell us if he's gotten old overnight, which I don't expect him to.

Was watching some his workout the other day and he's practicing throwing shots whilst moving backwards a lot, which I'm a fan of.

 

Ignore him, he's a povetkin super fan who has been driven insane by the fact Povetkin isn't the favourite in this fight.

 

any version of povetkin tortures Chisora]s bum ass.

 

you must be in Joshua's press corps.

 

He's a povetkin fan trying to create reverse hype

 

He might stop Joshua much earlier.

 

lol, that's a fight i'd quite like to see come to think of it

 

maybe for three belts!

 

Depends if we see the Klitschko Joshua or the Parker Joshua. I've got a feeling McCracken is instilling a safety-first approach in him and we may see another dullish affair with Povetkin desperately trying to get inside, only to be tied up by AJ. I can't see him wanting to go in there and trade, which nearly cost him against Wlad. AJ1 would KO or be KOed, AJ2 will probably win on a boring points decision, much to the delight of some on this board...

 

Judging by Joshuas last fight Povetkin could very well go the full distance because Joshua was painfully cautious, i hope he is not transforming into Wladimir 2.0, also i hope the referee won't be as bad as the one against Parker and allows them to fight inside.

 

My thoughts as well. Now that AJ is a cash cow they have to protect their investment and that means not losing is more important than winning.

 

I dont hate Chisora enough to wish him brain damage.

 

I think Joshua is desperate to rekindle his (overstated) wrecking ball rep, after two dull defences comprising of a British stoppage and a boring points win. If he's true to his word, I don't think Sasha will hear the final bell.

Added to that, the HW focus - for the first time in years - rests elsewhere: with Wilder and Fury. I suspect he will try snatch that back with something more eye-catching than his recent efforts. Therein lies a glimmer of hope for Povetkin fans, as that might give him openings to counter. But my hunch is he will be taken care of before round 10...

 

Actually the more i think about it the more i give Povetkin a good chance.

At first i thought that fight is a mismatch but i think Povetkin is a superior fighter to Parker and i have recently watched the AJ vs Parker fight again and that fight was a lot closer than i had it in my memory but it's unlikely that Povetkin wins on points when you look at the scorecards from the Parker fight so he has to knock AJ out.

I think Povetkin is a live dog, Joshua has shown to be susceptible to left hooks which plays into Povetkins cards, he needs to avoid the uppercut though or it's gonna be a short night for him.
