    Povetkin will show a good performance as long as the fight lasts, but he'll lose the fight eventually, either by Whytes first clean punch that wobbles him or by the accumulation of body punches that will lead to a finish.

    Whyte looks so massive compared to Povetkin lol. A good name on Whyte's records and a sad ending for Povetkin? We'll see. I hope my prediction is wrong because I like Povetkin more, but I don't see him getting out of this fight as winner.

    Kuzmin/Bakole will almost certainly suck. Unless Bakole gets an early finish but expect Kuzmin to look to spoil and survive like he did against Hunter.

    Povetkin should still beat Whyte unless he goes totally **** overnight which is always possible at 41 years old.

    The domestic affair looks boring and women's boxing. Lol.

    Good match up I fully expected Whyte to take it on points Povetkin slowly been on the decline for the last couple of years

    Pov might have one big perfomance left in him, asking a lot at 41 tho.

    Povetkin a little lucky to get out with the draw last time out, last beat a legitimately ranked fighter in 2016. I can't see him beating Whyte. Still, it should be good while it lasts.

    Man, I'm a big Povetkin fan but he's getting old now. 5 years ago I'd have picked him ... now I'm guessing Whyte takes it.

    Risky fight for Whyte. He needs to look good.

    I really hope that Povetkin made the most out of the fact that WADA did 90% lless testing durning the whole Corona epidemic.
