    Expecting a slightly premature stoppage from the bodybuilder, a TKO in the late rounds probably. I don't think he'll risk taking Povetkin out early. It will be a tactical fight on the outside I should imagine.

    AJ by KO.
    Price wobled Alexander, Joshua is good enough to do the job properly.

    Although I want to be wrong and see Povetkin whoop AJ.

    Probably a Joshua stoppage after knocking Povetkin down and then following up with a flurry of punches which don't necessarily land, mid-rounds. Joshua may find himself hurt earlier on though.

    AJ via late round British stoppage (similar to Takam stoppage.)

    Hoping Povetkin proves me wrong.

    This..Thing is though, I don't think he can force the pace for long down to his size and age. Im hoping he can though

    Povetkin to shock the World.

    Joshua unable to cope with the pressure, and to struggle badly as the second half approaches. Stopped around round 8.

    Just got a hunch.

    I think povetkin will try to take the fight to the inside, throwing overhand rights as he moves in , but joshua will want to keep it long and try to catch povetkin with uppercuts when he moves in.
    Joshua's height, reach and age are obviously an advantage, but povetkin has a good chin and stamina so won't be easy to get out of there.
    I'm going with Joshua UD, but it won't be easy

    David Price has the power to wobble anyone!!! Dillian Whyte had Joshua chicken dancing! and Whyte doesn't have half the power Price has.

    AJ will be flopping around on the canvas like a fish on the deck of a boat by the middle rounds.

    It's just a joke bud, pull J's peepee out of your mouth. I just thought it was too funny how Deonkey called him that on live tv after his fight. Everyone is innocent until proven guilty.
