Prime Alexander Povetkin vs Jimmy Young (Foreman fight)

Young schools him. If Foreman could not finish him that could do this mediocre?

 

Povetkin. When he had his younger legs like he did vs Byrd and Donald, he was excellent at hunting down movers. Young's low pace and lack of power would mean Povetkin could tee off on him and not give him much breathing room. I thought Young beat Norton, but Povetkin is a better than Norton.

Povetkin wins a close, boring decision.

 

Povetkin on workrate. UD.

 

Sasha isn't mediocre, he's outstanding contender and one of the best HWs of 21st century.

 

Povetkin too disciplined a fighter to fall for Jimmy’s traps. Jimmy was great in his own way but I don’t like this matchup for him. It’s about styles.

 

Like sharkey right? Lmao

 

"Povetkin is better than Norton" epic phrase lmao. After all he is 16

 

No, he's different. What is wrong with you?

Povietkin is the best contender in the world for a long time and even past his best he's able to beat top tier contenders despite being 40.

 

Oh c'mon sweetheart. No need to obsess.

And your comment is coming from the guy who thinks Canelo has a legitimate chance at beating Jack ****ing Dempsey, your opinions mean very little.

 

Povetkin has the style to get to boxers. Jimmy Young really wasn't that fast or quick, he was best described as slippery and hard to time.

IMO Povetkin's work rate would earn him the decision.

 

Foreman has gas tank issues. And confidence issues for that fight. Povetkin in his prime had top conditioning / work rate / fought smart.

 

Get a happy meal and go to the bed

 

Get your head out of your arse and go to school.
