    How would Povetkin fair in these two match ups.

    He decisions Toney in a close fight, gets stopped by Ike in the late rounds.

    I think Ibeabuchi is too strong and will win a competitive decision over Povetkin.

    I also favour Povetkin to outwork heavyweight Toney and win a close decision.

    However, i would favour cruiserweight Toney of the Jirov fight to outwork and counter Povetkin and win a close decision over him.

    I think Ibeabuchi vs JT is the fight to make - JT can win that.

    Poll is worded very poorly.

    Loses to Ibeabuchi but could out-dog Toney for a decision. Would be a very ugly looking and boring match though. Two low activity counterpunchers.
