    us Brits get this on Boxnation, so yeah, i'll be watching. but it won't be Live because there's the Quigg and Joshua fights on Sky Sports at the same time.

    i'll be hoping that Povetkin pulls the upset, but it won't happen. Wlad will win by late stoppage in a pretty one sided fight.

    really???

    how long has Povetkin held the WBA for? and how many times has he fought the best out there?

    Pov has had a **** run of fights. the only good one was against a Cruiserweight.

    It will be live. Boxnation and Sky Sports are different channels. The clue is in the name.

    How do you know Pabon won't be helping Wlad? Didn't you see the Mormeck fight?
    If Pabon is on Povetkin's side and prevents him fouling, Wlad is gone by 10 round.

    Like many, I have been watching povetkin very closely for years. They brought him along slowly, but this is his chance. I really like them both, they give much credit to the sport. In my opinion, a nice change from all the trash talk from previous heavyweights. I am a Brit, but I hope whoever wins, shuts up haye for good!. As an ex fighter, I cannot stand the man

    Pabon tends to side with the boxer of the event's promoter.

    This will be promoted by a Russian, Andrey Ryabinsky. I saw on the Russian website allboxing that Povetkin may not renew his contract with Sauerland after the fight, and instead sign with Ryabinsky who is starting a new promotional company.

    Most of the people supporting Povetkin will simply be rooting against Wlad and will not give Povetkin any credit for defeating an ATG, essentially in his prime. They will just use those events to support their twisted crusade that has gone for over a decade.

    So you can win a big $240 on your 1K. This is not a safe fight to bet big on when it comes to Wlad. Too many potential issues considering the location among other things.

    At least hedge your bet with some money on a Povetkin KO!

    Ryabinskiy says he's not going to send Chisora to observe Wlad's wraps.

    "Никакого Чисоры в раздевалке Владимира не будет. Я порядочный человек. Мне нужен честный поединок, а не дешевые трюки"

    This is good news. Ryabinskiy seems like an honorable man who won't use cheap tricks like that.

    Pulev is Wlad's next mandatory. That's not cherrypicking.
