    When you're in doubt, pray to Jesus

    and he'll reveal the answer to you

    the answer is Joe Frazier

    I don't know this Joe Frazier fella but I hope he would keep his cool against a guy like Povetkin.

    Despite Povetkin being a better two handed hitter, my money is on Frazier to outwork and wear down Povetkin in a competitive fight.

    Frazier UD 12, something like 8 rounds to 4. Competitive but clear. Frazier's work rate in the later rounds is too high.

    Freizer was portrayed by television's Kelsey Grammer, who was named after the goddess Freizer, the Swedelandic goddess, I believe, who was portrayed by Miss Universe contestant Arnelle Shwatzenhogger in Batman.

    Assuming we’re talking about Joe FRAZIER then I would favor him to beat Povetkin. If we’re talking about someone else then I don’t know

    Povetkin can't handle that pace, even with Meldonium. Frazier breaks him down

    The answer is still Povetkin. Bigger, stronger, and just as busy. Sasha wouldn't have to go looking for Frazier and it would be a nice change from fighting giants. Yeah, Frazier's left hook is probably the best punch going into this match, although Povetkin had a murderous left hook himself. The difference is that Povetkin has mastery of an array of punches and can use them creatively.

    This joke now makes no sense because one of the mods (I presume) corrected the spelling of Freizer to Frazier both in the thread title and in my post so now I just like a moron :confused:
