Povetkin even for his age has good skills and in price fight he had to be wary of a big punch coming back at him .hughie certainly doesnt have the power punch price or Joshua have,
I think Sasha is too far gone now. It'll be ugly, lots of holding moving from Hughe who I think will win a close decision. Povetkin will have his moments but won't be able to pull the trigger, IMO
If he loses this clearly I’d say he’ll probably never win a world title. There’s only so much a fighter can improve and he’s been around for a while now. He’s got to win. If he can’t beat a Povetkin knocked out cold by AJ, he’s never going to beat the elites.
It's a great opportunity for Hughie on Sky. Povetkin is a lot smaller than him and a lot older than him. If he can use all his elusiveness and poke the jab out all night, he has a chance. Povetkin won't stop him IMO. Hughie was unlucky against Parker IMO. If he was a matchroom fighter he would've got that decision. If it's close v Povetkin he'll get the nod.
You’re asking the wrong question. High risk then surely high reward? Where does Hughie go with a victory? Hearn has some stable of heavyweights Joshua Bakole Hrgovic Takam Usyk Whyte Parker Povetkin Kuzmin? Chisora Hunter Zhang
This content is protected Official. Fair play to Hughie, he doesn’t duck a challenge and this is an intriguing fight for the card.
Actually very excited about this, if he gets an injury and misses it though that's it, I'll be done with him.
Parker, Pulev, Povetkin. Not bad for a boy of 24. Hope he gets that elusive W v a world class opponent. Povetkin ain't easy though.
I must be missing something with hughie fury because he looks absolute turd when ever i watch him. Povetkin by very comfortable ud.
