    Let this get this straight, this fight is complete a waste of time - a joke that won't even be competitive. If you thought the parker fight was bad, wait until you hear about this farce. Don't bother wasting your time to tune in to watch a old man be beaten down by a young powerhouse in their prime. Don't buy a ticket for this farce unless you are a one of the numerous groupies on here, who just wishes to loiter around at the end of the show in oder to catch a glimpse of AJ in the flesh in the faint hope that you can be picked out by security to be taken out back for one on one meet, so you kiss him in the mouth.

    Save yourself the time and trouble and just wait until you see the morning news print of the boxing news spread on the back page, with Povetkin laid on his back, partially upright with his hands out bemusedly looking to the british ref -who has just had him and his family's future secured courtesy of the slithering silver spooned forked tongued lying slick snake Hearn -asking him why he stopped the fight so early after the 1st/2nd knockdown

    Lest we forget, this is a 38 year old, war torn, neutered, calmed down Povetkin who has still has the will but not the capabilities to trouble Joshua.

    These are the main reasons why this fight should be boycotted and is no interest at all

    1) Alex has to be clean whilst his opponent is free to roid up until his heart is content

    2) AJ and Hearn wanted this fight because they know Alex is old, short, not risk on being on any peds , is tailor made for AJ at this stage of his career, acts of a pawn to delay the Wilder fight in hope that he loses, gets injured or loses something as he gets older.

    3) Alex doesn't fare well against taller fighters, he would have lost to Price had price not been a perpetual dummy and stood in front of him all night.

    4) The British referee isn't going to allow Alex to get anywhere near Joshua, let alone touch him with any kind of mean intentions.

    This fight is all lined up to be a vintage Joshua dominating displaying fight. It's all to showcase to his groupies that he is untouchable. This fight has been on cards for a long time because Povetkin fits the bill in all areas not just in the ring. His past reputation as a killer, not to mention some still til this day, seem to believe he has a chance, makes this fight a big seller for Hearn who will talk him up as if he's Edmund Kemper incarnate, whilst in the full knowledge that he poses little to no threat due to all the factors previously mentioned, stacking against him.

    And please don't tell me this fight happened because he was mandatory and AJ honors all mandatories, because we know very well, that they pulled all the stops to get out of fighting Ortiz, even signing him up to butter him up and string him along on a path to anywhere but in the ring with AJ.

    The man had to threaten to sue these God damn lying double crossing snakes in hope of getting his mandatory honored and they still didn't give it to him because they knew Ortiz wouldn't have followed the script and he would have even gone through one of AJ's bodyguards i.e the ref to get to him in the ring.

    Povetkin is undefeated (Klitschko should have been DQ'd by any decent ref), has the best skillset in the division and is one of the most feared punchers. He will destroy Joshua.

    I expect AJ to win and believe he will but I believe Povetkin is seriously dangerous for Joshua.


    Povetkin can punch, will punch and isn't going to come over here and go in to his shell, he wants this fight, he could have gone another way, he basically forced this mandatory.


    I would obviously make Joshua favourite, a heavy favourite but is AJ really a 1/16 shot? And is Povetkin really a 8/1 shot?

    I personally believe it's a closer fight than that. We will see.

    I admire your optimism.

    However the same way Wlad had that ref on his side, is the same way Joshua will have his deployed bodyguard ensuring that Povetkin isn't allowed to do any work.

    All that power in his fists will mean nothing when he isn't allowed to land on his intended target through smothering and an overprotective minders giving him warnings for trying to throw a punch.

    The blood will slowly drain from Alex's face when he realises he is having to fare against two men in that ring.

    This fight is no farce.

    Povetkin is Joshua's mandatory and generally regarded as the third best heavyweight in the world behind only AJ and Wilder. Right now this is the best fight that be made until AJ and DW sort out all the legal/financial nonsense.

    He has a better chance than Parker did, in my estimation.

    Do you think people can’t see through your embarrassing attempt at covering all bases so you don’t have to give AJ any credit?

    It’s either that or you are such an AJ fanboy that you think the 3rd best heavyweight in the world is completely outmatched here. Either way it’s a bit pathetic.

    AJ got beat in the amateurs by fighters that have a similar style to povetkin and that's why I find this fight interesting

    The division is shallow right now, so a 38 year old on his last legs being 3rd best, means nothing.

    David Haye was highly ranked in the rankings after he beat those two delivery boys and there were individuals such as yourself saying that Haye would be too dangerous for AJ.

    Now look at him, he's done. The same way Povetkin is old and done. Yes his power is dangerous, but taking in all other factors which I have mentioned this is a no contest fight. It's a look and feel good fight for Aj, nothing more.

    I don't see any comparison with Haye except age. Povetkin has had no history of injuries at all. Sasha will Smasha!

    Povetkin is old school , he is way better than anyone other the Vlad AJ has faced.

    This will be a tough night for AJ , I'm not sure he comes through this.

    Disagree. Povetkin is the 2nd or 3rd best HW in the world atm. I think he also has a style that is very dangerous for Joshua, even though he's up there in age.

    I agree, there is a lot of this going on, the pre fight assassination of any Joshua opponent.

    Wlad was "old and shot", Parker was "beaten by Hughie Fury", Takam was "beaten by Parker", Molina was "beaten by Wilder", Breazeale was "fat and chinny", Charles Martin was "a joke".

    If Joshua was fighting Wilder they would say "Wilder was nearly knocked out by a great grandfather".

    Joshua can't and won't win with some people, when you look at his list of past opponents it isn't that bad..

    Martin (World Champion), Breazeale (Unbeaten), Molina, Takam, Parker (Unification), Klitschko (Unification) and now Povetkin (Former World Champion).

    Not a bad run at all but Joshua never get any credit even though he has fought (would have fought) all those in 22 professional fights.

    Why didn't AJ fight Ortiz when he was mandatory and begging him to honor the compulsion?

    And why does AJ only feel safe fighting in the uk even though he is suppose to be champion of the 'World'?

    And why would a heavyweight reject the biggest purse in HW boxing history because they feel it's ''selling their belts and their soul'' ?

    Those three questions which I doubt you will be able to give a justifiable answer to are just three reasons why there are question marks surrounding his career and definition of a true champion.
