    Here's the thing...
    No matter how much some of you love to talk **** about povetkin and to label him as overrated. You gotta admit...His workrate is ****ing impressive. He's very active and EVEN when he gasses , he keeps on throwing & landing punches till the end of the 12th ****ing round... The only way to stop his antics is just to KO his ass...

    Now , as boring as sultan vs wlad was , the positive side is that no matter how cautious wlad will be against Povetkin...it won't change ****... Wlad will be forced to land as many bombs as possible , and to score as many points as possible...simply because he'll have to keep up with povetkin's consistent attacks.

    Povetkin is going to stalk wlad for 12 rounds and keep on attacking over and over again , that's what he does..and he'll do the same vs klitschko even if he gets koed in the process...but he'll be very active for sure.

    so my prediction is...win or lose wlad vs povetkin has high chances to be very entertaining..

    :lol: at least your still game and not running away like others do....
    but in all honestly (like I have been saying for months now) I am taking Povetkin for the upset in this fight. I'll get into it more when the threads become official

    I don't care if there's an upset or if he's tkoed in the 6th , or 8th or whatever..
    My point is this...

    No matter who wins or loses...A guy like povetkin will force Wlad to be very active..he'll have to keep up with pov's workrate.. You've all seen this guy in action and whether you think he's overrated or not...you still can't deny the fact that he's very busy when he's in the ring....even when he's tired...he gives his best till the end...

    Wlad vs. Povetkin will be a great fight. Styles make fights and the style match up is there. I think this will likely be Wlad's next fight. We know that he won't fight the WBC champ when Vitali is making a comeback and Ruslan will fight Valuev, etc, for the rest of the year.

    WALD would flatten Povetkin. If Chambers right hands can stun him, imagine what WALD would do.

    Yeh and itll be interesting to see what a HEALTHY Povetkin can do. He had the flu for that fight and still won convincingly and threw damn near 900 punches. But keep on underestimating him guys, cause then the line on him will be great and I can fill my pockets even more :hey

    Povetkin isn't the strongest puncher, I bet even Wlad could take his best shot. Wlad would most likely KO him, if he actually learns how to throw a right hand...

    His workrate against Chambers was very impressive indeed, 72 punches a round.

    However, the question is, can Povetkin get his punches off against Wlad? Chambers showed great defence, but he was not mobile at all. The target was there often, only he covered up or slipped/ducked. Wlad will be using his feet to keep the gap. He also has a lot more power to make Povetkin think twice about coming in.

    This fight is going to be entertaining for the reason of seeing Wlad finally unload his arsenal that he lacked in last nights fight.

    povetkin will find it very hard to throw and land. wlad will move and not stand in front of povetkin like chambers. he neutralizes his opponent's offense doing this. wlad's jab would be the story of the fight as povetkin keeps walking into it. soon he will be stationary, then the rights hands will follow.

    povetkin has great stamina but wlad's is right there imo. he can move and box for 12 round easy. but povetkin has a lot of upside. he can improve. that's why he should go in another direction at this point.
     
  13. I give Povetkin a 45% chance of victory in a tough technical fight.
