Are you guys looking forward to AJ vs Povetkin?

I’m more looking forward to having some friends over to watch it rather then the fight itself to be honest. The AJ hype as I predicted after Takam is well and truely on the decline at the moment.

Even his sponsors seem to have reduced their budget significantly for this fight- my insta/Twitter etc would normally be hammered with Beats/Under armour/William Hill etc adverts but there’s hardly anything so far.

The present number 1 heayweight fighting the heavyweight with the next best record in the division - Of course I am looking forward to it.

 

Not really, I'll watch it somewhere if I'm sober enough, I will be out and about Saturday for a mates birthday and I will be drinking like Oliver Reed with a thirst on.

For the people too young to remember Oliver Reed, he was an English actor.. I have to stress the word "English" because in this clip he is saying/singing something I can't understand..

Anyway, Saturday night I'll be looking like this by errr roughly 8:30pm so I actually don't hold much hope of seeing the fight until Sunday.


EDIT: Oliver Reed, What a LEGEND.

 

Looking forward to it. Povetkin athletically doesn't look up to it at this stage of his career. But he is still a serious fighter who comes prepared. Also knows how to fight...backs off when he needs too. Keeps coming. Punches hard enough etc. Joshua would be best to approach it aggressively imo. Povetkin keeps coming otherwise. Or he could fight like he did against parker....its always a safe bet tbh. But can't see povetkin stopping coming forward if Joshua does it on the back foot. The problem I see is povetkins durable with a half decent chin, can punch and is also good at getting opponents working. What happens if he's still there after 7 or 8.
