    Wlad might get starched if he takes him lightly

    I hope so. I am a big Wlad fan.

    I am just objective and realistic.

    I'd be very surprised if Povetkin showed up disinterested and with a wack strategy ala Sam Peter.

    This fight should be everything that last Klitschko fight wasn't. It's plausible that Wladimir stops Povetkin but Povetkin is very schooled and can wear Wladimir down if Wladimir allows him to hang around.

    I'm gonna take Povetkin here. I still think he will bring the skillset, desire and fortitude to beat Wladimir.

    This is very convenient for me.


    I'll catch this fight on HBO and the replay of DLH - Pacquiao!


    There's no way I'm paying for that garbage PPV.

    More money for holiday shopping!


    WIN.

    Wlad will most likely win. Hopefully he will fight Haye right after.

    Name one heavyweight with last name not being Klitchko who is clearly better then Povetkin?

    Calling him pretender is dumb. He without a slightest doubt a top 5 heavy.

    I like Sasha, but I don't think he brings enough to the table to defeat Klitschko.

    Povetkin being thrown to the lions. I give him very little chance of beating Wlad at this point in time.

    I still think Chambers threw that fight away because he CLEARLY won the first five rounds. And if they were a rematch between the two Chambers would win. But I'll give Povetkin credit, he does have good skills, better than some people give him credit for, and he might frustrate Wladimir. But if Chambers were to exploit his holes then Wladimir definitely will. The only difference is that Wladimir is more consistent, throws more punches, and hits harder.

    Exactly :good
    Chambers lost that fight more than Povetkin won.

    Chambers was Wlads sparring partners for the Brock fight. He was beat from corner to corner until he was finally sent home. Wlad will expose Povetkins weak defense.

    With Povetkin's come forward, pressure, aggressive style, and less than impressive power,........It'll be interesting to see how Povetkin deals with it, Wlad nails him with that missle-like right hand, and if Povetkin then keeps coming forward.

    Thats cause you dont understand the fight game. Chambers nailed Povetkine with jabs and straight rights constantly. Wlad will ko him with a right straight or uppercuts. Or Povekin will quit oh his stool. Wlad is way above Povetkin. Wlad has the heart of a lion and is very skilled.

    Very nice heavyweight fights, the Klitschkos brought the best heavyweight fights this year, even the haters should admit it. :deal
