    Doesn't matter. Molina is decent enough and Hrgovic will get major exposure from this. 2020 will be the year he emerges as a top contender if all goes to plan.

    Povetkin ought to retire. Hunter is going to beat him. He's too old.

    Povetkin is way above Hunter's level.

    I don't understand the hype for Hunter in this forum. Have you noticed something superb about Hunter that I didn't? What's so special about him?

    Could be a huge win for Hunter. Would definitely keep Povetkin toward the top of the division (best of the rest) should he win, too.

    As someone who never watched Hunter nor read that he fought some tough guy, I always rated him somewhere in the same group as Jennings, Joyce, H. Fury. Don't see him beating Povetkin. 8rd KO for the Russian expert.

    Hunter has already stepped in the HW division and defeated Bakole who will cause many problems win or lose, of course when I had him potentially getting by Usyk at CW he was a bum now hes a world beater ??? When I said he has a skillset to get by guys ,it was laughed but now I stopped covering the HW division bc its a troll forum on here he the next champion ?WHAT

    Hunter is legit. He's maybe a bit small for the heavies, but I expect him to beat old and slow Povetkin on points. I'll be rooting for Sasha but realistically I think Pov is done at the highest level. Sasha still has the power and accuracy though so Hunter better not lose focus or he might get stopped.

    I like Povetkin Vs Hunter, it's an interesting fight.

    Obviously the main event is a big one.



    The rest im not bothered about, I just can't get "boxing wood" for Eggington or Liam Smith.

    Hunter will be Povetkin's first American foe since his fight against Hasim Rahman, and interestingly enough, Rahman is Hunter's trainer. :chuck:

    Hunter looked absolutely TERRIBLE against Bakole. Terrible. If it was someone else instead of Bakole, he would KTFO Hunter.

    Hunter is a bum.
