    8th round: Both fighters wrestle a bit, Donalds guard a lil bit too low - eating Povetkin's jab. Povetkin punches in bunches for the last minute - the people in attendance go frenzy.

    79-73 Povetkin

    Povetkin flurrying at the end of a round shows he already has the mind of a seasoned veteran.

    Looks like Sasha is winning this without much difficulties, good for him. Now he'll be ranked in the WBC Top10 and maybe also in other ABC orgs. He'll be a beltholder in 2008.

    9th round: Povetkin failing to hit with accuracy, tries the right hook time and time again. Donald with some unimpressive "hits". But still more punches thrown and connected by Povetkin.

    89-82 Povetkin

    Wow, Vitali's still the only one to stop Donald.

    btw, Povetkin's defence seems to be improved.

    The author didn't write much about the last round, just that Alex being better than Larry.

    99-91 Povetkin - AND still...on his way to a world title shot - Alexander "The Great" Povetkin!

    Great news, Tom, thanks. This was today's most important fight imo, and Povetkin is now in my Top15 Hws.

    Sounds like Povetkin did very good against Larry Donald, who could even give the champs some problems. I hope this fight gets posted on the net, haven't see a Povetkin fight since Ahunaya.
