Alexander Povetkin vs. Wladimir Klitschko

:deal

 

Watched Povetkin's last couple of fights... Easy Wlad victory.

 

Wladimir hasn't deteriorated enough for Povetkin to pose a threat.

 

It wont be easy for Wlad. I see Wlad getting hurt to but i think He will win by decision. I expect him to be very cautious during the first rounds.

 

I doubt Sasha wins one round. Wlad by 7th rnd TKO

 

Very good point about the Povetkin chances. He really does need to get out of the gate quick against this guy doesn't he? He really cannot afford to get off to a slow start or get busted up early and be playing that game.

Like yourself, I think that's what happens. He gets down 2 or 3 rounds to zero and things go downhill from there. So tough to dig yourself out of a hole when wlad is setting the pace and having things his way.

Those Oleg Maskaev comments about the fight were spot on and Alexander has a small margin of error to work from. He really has to be mistake free and he'd better do things like keeping those hands up and bringing those hands back nice and high after punching. And he cannot afford to hesitate or stop for a millisecond when Wlad lands a jab or those right hands will have a target.

 

How good is Povetkins inside game?
