    I think this fight will never happen unless Povetkin beats Wlad which isn't very likely considering he isn't even a big puncher, the end.

    If he lasts the 12 against Wlad I say Povetkin beats Haye UD.

    No sure about Povetkins chin yet but i think
    Povetkin would stop Haye in the second half of the fight.
    Povetkins workrate and infight skills should win him the fight.
    I think Haye has problems with stamina at HW

    If Povetkin will be exposed to have a bad chin then Haye could maybe K.O him in the first half of the fight if he is able to land anything big.

    I haven't seen Povetkin against a very fast puncher. His chin is untested too imo. Anyway, that would be a very interesting fight, I'd go with Haye SD.

    povetkin handled fast eddie easily, haye will slow a little as a heavy also

    I quite agree with you.

    Povetkin has a good chin so that Haye's biggest weapon can be neutralised.
    Apart from firepower Haye cant hold a candle to the former amateur superstar from Russia.

    My guess: Povetkin will stop his overmatched foes within the distance.Haye is too green to take on such a classy opponent.

    Is Chambers considered a big puncher though?
