    Povetkin would beat Adamek, to be fair Adamek was almost Ko'ed by Mcbride.

    Povetkin is dreadful. A 2006 Sam Peter would give him absolute hell.

    No higher than 3rd, and no lower than 3rd.

    If your answer is anything other than "3rd," then I seriously question a) how long you've been following boxing, b) how many Povetkin fights you have seen, and c) your overall ability to value opposition and performance.

    Povetkin #3 after Wlad and Vitali.

    I can't see it staying that way for too long though..

    IMO, Haye would beat him easily. Chisora would keep coming forward and Povetin would gas out and maybe be stopped. Hell, even Huck had him ruffled.

    I think Povetkin would edge Adamek in a close fight. Dimitrenko would win against Povetkin. He'd land jabs all night long. Povetkin looks like a clueless amateur against anyone working on him consistently.

    He would clearly beat Adamek & should be ranked above him

    Povetkin will look good against an ultra-shot Rahman and then he'll get pole-axed by Wlad. Then retire.

    Povetkin is a good boxer, but against big punchers, like Haye, Helenius, Stiverne, Wach, Ustinov he's gonna get stopped...

    He's a joke like the rest of the division aside from K2.
