    Yes, Povetkin is the real deal. Helenius is legit too but I'm not sure about the rest of them.

    Two of them are from Western Europe....
    But I agree Povetkin and Helenius are top class. Ustinov and Pianeto are not and I dont know eneough about Boytsov.

    He will spell big trouble for the Klits, and is the only one of those guys who really stands a chance against the sisters. Mark my words:good

    Have not seen much from Helenius, the few times I've seen him he reminded me of an improved Ustinov.

    He's big and strong but is he good enough to stand a chance against the current title holders in your opinion?

    Ustinov is terrible and ducked Cedric Boswell. He's like Valuev-Lite. Pianeta isn't very good either. Boystov has could offensive intangibles with decent speed and power but he needs to be more rounded. Haven't seen enough of Helenius yet if I'm honest but I've heard he's pretty decent. Povetkin still has fatal flaws that would be exposed by either Klit or Haye.

    it occured to me that everyone is blaming haye because his ducking off klitchkos and very few people are blaming povietkin for doing the same for much longer time

    That's because most of the noobs here hardly know about his existence. They also havent seen one fight out of him, but are still predicting that a Klit or Haye would kayo him. He's been ducking Wlad for quite a while now, but will eventually fight him. And after that, everybody will know who Czar Povetkin is :good

    I wouldn't call Boytsov a robot.
    He's not that big.... but he's pretty exciting to watch.
    He has some nice combos in his arsenal.

    Alexander Povetkin - still to amateurish,will lose to both klits
    Denis Boytsov - hard hitter,its about time to get him a worldclass opponent
    Francesco Pianeto - a bit too overrated,actually lost to sosnowski
    Robert Helenius - need more time, still abit too slow and clumsy
    Alexander Ustinov - seems clumsy and bulky,lets see how he handles a real worldclass opponent

    ^ wonder which of the above five will get a title shot first. Povetkin is in line for Wlad's IBF but how long till he finally cashes on his title shot?

    as for the rest, hopefully they can start to fight better opposition
