    That is possible, but they don't just do that "touch". I think they hit hard, but Povetkin couldn't get through Chambers high guard. He was able to towards the end, but I would've like to of seen him loading up on the 'soft sides' until Chambers dropped his guard. It doesn't matter too much if others didn't see a GREAT performance. There aren't anymore serious US HW Contenders (that I can think of). I'm not sure why I'm saying this but I don't think Mike Tyson would work right now anyways. If these guys could take his punch, or neutralize it than someone of his style is F-kd.

    Povetkin has power, but not the Hammer from Hell punch.
    He has good combos and small angles, and is hittable. He turns out to have good stamina.
    Short arms.
    I have watched all of his televised fights and thought he was stepping in too early with the big boys I was wrong.
    Wlad to win and Peters would have a hard fight.

    I was shocked....some one thinks Chagaof or how ever, has good defence.:patsch
    Been watching him too from the start and he never impressed me, and Povetkin has impressed me. Both have the same ammount of power. IMO and Povetkin has the work rate. Better combos too.
    Hell Sedwick Fields beat Chagaof, untill my man Sedwick realised he was not going to be ever paid again if he beat him and gave up the last round. Fields managed to lose better the next time.
    povetkin beats Chagaof IMO.
