    Odds are insane. Povetkin is just another circus freak who might stumble with decent Donald. And Akinwande is DONE. Holyfield-Savarese is the best fight next saturday. Unless Gonzalez schools Sturm. :lol:

    Or at least the least likely to be a stinker. :good

    I'm interested in seeing how Povetkin and Donald goes though.

    Anything featuring Akinwande could never interest me. I thought him and Platov have fought already.

    circus freak? maybe so....maybe he'll get owned by donald too...maybe he'll crash and burn.

    having said that , there's one thing we do know...this circus freak also happens to have one of the best HW amateur record in boxing history.
    and He also seems to be ultra dominant in all his pro fights.

    but hey , **** happens...and maybe one of the best HW project in recent history is gonna get ridiculed by Donald soon..

    I really hope not though.
    Because from what I've seen of povetkin so far...He's one of the most exciting HW in a long ass time.

    Povetkin and Platov should win clear UDs. Their opponents are imported U.S.-based HWs brought in to lose. And neither has KO power so don't expect that to help.

    I'm not too sold on Bidenko, so who knows, maybe "The Dutch Sonny Liston" might upset him. Wouldn't bet on it though - after all, Hersisia lost to FRAUDLEY!! :patsch

    Holyfield will knock out Saverese, probably somewhere in the middle rounds.

    I think Solis got a chance to surpass Povetkin in terms of quality of opposition, he just needs to get back in shape!!

    Donald is a crafty veteran, this is a big fight for Povetkin, I expect a UD win but Donald could sneak in the upset.

    Platov-Akinwande, poor management by Platov's team..they beat Akinwande by SD in the first fight..why would you fight Akinwande again? There is no public interest and the money probably isn't even that good. You got the win, move on with Platov's career.

    Bidenko-Hersisia, I have never seen Hersisia fight but I have seen Bidenko once or twice. Hasn't been the same IMO since getting starched by Virchis in a fight he was winning, but I will say Bidenko by UD.

    Donald will prove a real test for Povetkin, certainly. Povetkin will have his hands full with The Legend.

    I think Donald is actually a very good boxer, even if he don't have a marketable name, or much KO power.

    I will be watching Holyfield (as long as it isn't priced thru the roof), but i'm not implying that those others are not better fights.

    So Akinwande finally got over that lil' bout of Hep-B, eh? Talented guy, somehow he can't get it together.
