    No way. Unless Wlad is also involved in the fix

    povetkins jab sets up his attack he comes in then clinches so the ref will break and he can reset and go again..so the problem there straight away is wlad is far to strong for povetkin and will drain him..then you have to look at his poor head movement while coming in with his combos he will be tagged alot and from what ive seen his chin is not good (its not poor tho)..his foot movement is not good enough to do a haye or iggy to last the 12 rounds and his stamina lacks esp going past round7 (this might change tho with ped use)..

    povetkin is a sucker for left hook straight right and we all know wlad loves that so i think the fights gonna end in an actual kayo..no tko or retiring on the stool...

    How many boxing robberies have happened in countries other than Russia? How many have happened in Russia?

    Isn't the russian mafia just raking that money in like there was no tomorrow? Why would they want to get mixed up in boxing?

    Won't be surprised if this turns out to be true.

    Back in the day nobody gave Lamont Brewster a chance in hell of beating Wladimir Klitschko but yet he came out on top. Perhaps this fight will serve to highlight Wlads weaknesses and or show that his time on top is up. Very unlikely but I wouldn't bet my house on this one for sure. Back in the day even Samuel Peters put Wlad on the canvas like six times and Samuel was never even half as good as the limited Povetkin.

    I'm sure Wlad's smart enough to know he needs the knockout here. With the kind of money invested in this fight to make sure it ends up in Russia, he can't afford to leave any chance of getting screwed.

    unfortunutly for povetkin wlads style is very very very hard to beat on points...so i cant see a robbery here...its the drugs thats the key for povetkin..but even that will only prolong the fight

    Only way Povetkin wins is if the ref from Ottke-Reid shows up and takes points/DQ's Wlad for punching Povetkin in the face before he can KO him.
