    Prime Povetkin would be a tough challenge for Usyk, technically skilled but also has much more power than Usyk

    Interesting fight as Povetkin's style would worry Usyk. But I'm going for Usyk over 12 rounds MD.

    Povetkin was an excellent fighter in his prime but I think Usyk would beat him by comfortable 116-112 decision.

    Povetkin was slowish on his feet, less reach than Usyk, similar height to Usyk.

    I think Usyk schools him, 118-110
