Betting line on Wlad. -618 to -460 in 24 hours.

That is in fact a little suspicious. I'm actually hoping for Wlad to win this within the distance this time.

 

erm is that a bad thing :huh any fighter that clinches alot should be docked points, wlad's physical advantages alone should be enough to not let it get anywhere near the scorecards, sadly i hope im wrong but i see another one sided beatdown for a overmatched klitchko opponent

 

He knows he has to KO him, and he will.
Russian mob betting heavy on Povetkin is to be expected. They know the fix is in, and they can loundry a lot of dirty money when Pov somehow lasts the distance without being completely outclassed and put down a couple of times.

 

I'm all for the referee being fair with clinches for once in a Klit fight.

Octopus Wlad can get away with anything in Germany, this time it'll hopefully be different and he's gonna have to fight for a change.

 

Best way is to end the fight with a KO, wont be easy........think everything will bee arranged for Povetkin win, including the ref that will do what he can to prevent a KO

 

This might force Wlad try and take out Sasha in first half of the fight.

 

Yes it did. It was discussed toroughly here on the forum.
Wlad started out as about a 1/3 or even 1/4 favorite I believe and at the time of the fight it was narrowed all the way down to 2/3.

 

bear in mind, that the Moscow crowd has already seen two disappointing defeats this year: Lebedev getting brutalised by GullieROID Jones, then Chak getting KTFO'd by Wlod, the pressure to finally see their hometown boy winning will be unbearable, Wlad will need 3 knockdowns just to get a draw on the cards

 

What was the thing about the gloves?

 

Well Wlad did bring his lap dog with him, Thomas Putz of the BDB (Why he's involved with the fight in Russia).....so it's likely he'll have things in his favor as usual. :roll:

 

Bovada actually has Wlad down to -400 and Povtekin+300..
That is a big swing in 24hrs.

I'm not worried about the judges, as i can't see Wlad getting out boxed. But I can say i don't care for the Ref, and the way he protected Povetkin vs. Huck. That fight had a chance to end completely different had Pabon not wanted his 15min of TV time. Though if K2 didn't have a problem and request a change, it's on them should it play an effect.

 

:err
