Why is Sasha Povetkin so protected?

Steward already went on record in saying Peter has the heaviest hands in the division on the HBO telecast of Maskaev/Peter. He said the reason he don't knock out fighters more, because he rarely lands his punches on his oppenents chin. He throws looping punches, not straighter punches like Wlad.

I agree, Povetkin was moved fast up the ranks. Now he seems to want to go a snails pace to the top again.

Peter/Povetkin would make for interesting fight. I believe both men are on the same level at this point in their careers. If Povetkin's chin is as bad as the rumored sparring reports say. We will soon find out if he faces Peter.

 

I am, have been since 01. I even have the limited edition "Klitschko brothers" decapitation shirt, which I intend to wear for Wlad's upcoming match against Chambers.:good
