Povetkin is nowhere near as agressive as Brewster ever was, if he hits Wlad with a hook, it will most likely be to the body, not the chin
Keep hoping... eventually Wlad will either retire or lose, but I can't see Povetkin being the one ending Wlad's reign. He just doesn't have the right tools.
The only thing is, Wlad should remember the defence work with Steward and should not fight with the left hand so low like he did against Wach and Pianeta. The low left hand made him vulnerable for the right cross but I think he fought against Pianeta with the left low because he knows Pianeta was not dangerous. Povetkin is not dangerous for Wlad but a better boxer than Wach and Pianeta. Wlad will knock Povetkin out as quick as possible. Povetkin isn´t an agressive fighter and he is very very vulnerable for the Jab. So Wlad will land his jab with no problems.
WTF.. Purity and Sanders are better than Wlad, how the hell can Wlad be better than them...New and improved Fantasty Wlad does not mean he's better than them when he never proved it...
he took Huck's best shots flush without going down, so i'd have to say his chin is at least decent but he will get brutalised by Wlad, he is too stationary a target for him
Also the Brewster from the Wlad fight had an iron jaw. The same cannot be said for Povetkin who has ducked the Klitschko's for years and has now decided to cash in his chips.
Povektin will work on the inside where Wlad cant fight to save his life...Povektin is all wrong for Wlad.
Povetkin lacks the head movement, speed and footwork to close the distance to Wlad, it will look like a repeat of Wlad-Chagaev
To work on the inside he has to get inside and he needs room and time. I dont see that coming. MAybe if Povetkin would have good headmovement and fast feets he could do it but he has both things not.
