    Favorite against Wilder, Haye and Wlad

    +100 underdog against Joshua.

    The bookies sure know their stuff

    The bookies are idiots. They had luke campbell as a 25/1 favorite

    I'd agree with the bookies if Sasha Povetkin didn't exist. (or were a corporate raider or used car salesman instead of a boxer)

    They are pretty much bang on here, Joshua destroys any active HW apart from Fury which is a pick 'em

    Povetkin. He obviously still has to deal with Fury's length and movement and is smaller than Klitschko making it all the more challenging - but unlike Klitschko he won't fold mentally upon having a gander at this adversity. Povetkin is a pit bull. He will come forward, hell or high water, and lay hands on Fury's chin with no respect or concern for what's coming back. He'll show the balls Klitschko didn't, and I believe he possesses enough of a punch to make a difference.

    Joshua would pulverize Fury and Wilder.

    I checked Vegas and they have Fury, Wilder and Joshua all even.

    Caveat: if Fury, who is a clever lad, decides to just borrow Klitschko's playbook he could use his size to do the exact same thing Klitschko did, and jab-and-grab, lean and maul his way to victory over Povetkin (similar to what he did himself with Cunningham)

    Plodetkin is massively overrated. Fury wouldn't need to cheat like Wlad to get the job done, it would be a boxing masterclass. Plod wouldn't see the final bell

    You call him massively overrated despite his resume as of a month ago being about 10x better than Fury's? Interesting.

    Problem is that Povetkin is a bit of a plodder and can't cut off the ring very well.

    Fury has copied Wlad's style, it's obvious. Doesn't have the same power or speed but he's bigger with longer arms.

    Joshua has the hype machine behind him despite having beat nobody.
