    USA!!!

    Just read on Russian news that Povetkin's next fight is going to be on Sep. 29th in the USA(no City stated) possibly against a Top-10 fighter.

    I hope HBO picks it up as well. After all, we are talking about the best young HW out there.

    The date isn't fixed yet. It could also be the 6th of October on the undercard of Peter - Maskaev...

    This is great news...give him Rahman, Brock, or Virchis.

    I think it would be an American fighter, so lets not count Virchis.

    Calvin Brock wouldn't spell that much of a problem for a top prepared Alexander Povetkin - remember, he was fighting with a minor injury vs. Donald...

    I would not mind either if he wipes the floor with either Chambers or Arreola for that matter. However, do you honestly think, their promoters will let their undefeated puffs anywhere next to Povetkin at this stage. By the way, Povetking with only 13 fights has a better resume than both of the combined which is 49 fights.

    :good Povetkin is going to do big things in the heavyweight divsion.

    Great fighter. Very impressive aggressive style with good power.

    I actually think after dominating Donald it would be a step back. Donald is a much more dangerous of an opponent than Barrett.

    I will like him to fight Odlanier Solis 2-0 (2ko's)

    To see who is the Best Prospect :bbb

    It will be a Step Up for Povetkin

    Rahmen would be perfect.

    Good power, shakey chin, and we know him well. So this would be a good test of Poevetkin's power, chin,a nd other skliis.

    Could be a good fight.

    But i want to watch him versus Solis, that would be a Step Up in competition for Sasha.

    This is outstanding news. It'll be truly exciting to see him finally get covered on HBO. I think if they haven't seen him yet, Larry Merchant and Jim Lampley (and Max Kellerman) are going to have their eyes opened to the future of the Heavyweight division-Alexander "Poppin' Fresh" Povetkin. Can't wait to see who he fights and if it'll be broadcast.
