    Povetkin vs Parker is a good tear up, PEDvetkin may be a worry but Povetkin I'm leaning a Parker narrow decision. Parker boxed a fair bit better against Fury than he did Takam, and that Parker narrowly decisioned a Takam who was in better condition than the one who was more or less equal against PEDvetkin before the PE-KO.

    Povetkin'll lose by PED test. I think that Parker is more interested in fight with Joshua, he has more chances with Povetkin, but with Joshua he'd get more money.

    Agree


    Povetkin beats anyone but Joshua.... maybe not Ortiz either


    Parker or Wilder, either one. Povetkin tkos. Or wins a decision at the very least

    I reckon it's an exciting matchup. The Parker of today knows his game better than the Parker who beat Takam. He is fitter and can control his pace better. Takam gave Povetkin all sorts of trouble, and while I know the triangle theory is BS... the height advantage, plus Parkers willingness to throw combo bombs will make for an interesting matchup.

    Parker tight UD/SD with plenty of fireworks from 1-12

    Povetkin by knockout. Once again, VADA cleared Povetkin, but the WBC had to protect Wilder afterall they work for Haymon..............

    Think he'd smash Parker up in all honesty. Shame he's getting on because I think his style would make for a good matchup with AJ

    Funny how DiBella sarcastically referred to Povetkin as "supposedly a great fighter" when he and his boy Deontay were really reluctant to go to Russia and flew straight back to Alabama at the first moment possible.

    Makes more sense than Jennings to me. Povetkin's people might pay many $$ for a potential path to a belt and a mega AJ fight. It's like a bird in the hand.
