    Whyte wins this one clearly in my opinion. Povetkin is now a bit shop worn and Whyte would have the size and power to wear Sasha down.

    Whyte's last fight against Wach was not so good, Povetkin has a good chance to beat Whyte but his age could be the main reason for loosing...

    Thoughts: this has probably been asked before but why are these threads made with the full on formal boxer names including middle names etc? Nobody refers to either in this way so just wondered why the threads are started like that

    Will be a great fight if it comes off. You could argue either one of them has the timing right.

    Whyte might get the late stoppage here.
    Either way, Whyte gets the W in a scrappy and competitive fight.

    Should be quite good. And let´s hope the winner has the balls to take on Hunter. WAR HUNTER!:ibutt

    Props to both guys if this gets made. Should be a terrific fight. Whyte's age is in his favour but if he turns up like he did against Wach he's in big trouble.

    Povetkin is past it but can still make a big check from Hearn so I don't blame him. Should really hang up if this is a loss though.

    I'd like to see Wilder v the winner backed out v both in past.
    Btw I think Whyte wins this fight.

    Huge Povetkin fan, but he was way past even in the Joshua fight, and he have lets said it 2 hard fight since then. And now with Whyte ....
    I would favor Povetkin against all of the current HW if this was 2014-2016 version, but he get tired after 5-6 rounds if the pace is high. His power, foot speed, hand speed and reflexes are way in the decline as well.
    Still the match is 70-30 in favor of Whyte, but what will happen if Povetkin win? Will he get another title shot, this time at chicken legs Wilder?
    And at which 2025-2016 year Povetkin will get his chance at the belt ? To be fair i have the same question if Whyte wins. ;D

    Whyte is easy to hit and Povetkin can punch.

    But yes, Whyte wants the fight cause Povetkin is past it.
