    I am sure Povetkin will have his moments in the first 3-4 rounds, but he can't take the punishment Wlad dishes out for too long.

    Maybe he wins 2-3 rounds IMO, but he will lose most likely by TKO.

    Thats good news. Take holding away from a holder and there's not much left he can do.

    Again :patsch you are right. Forgot that Haye only demanded it, but ended up with Klitschko-ref Gennaro. The Haye - Chisora fight he did I remember though :nod

    So again, all in all, it cant be better for Povetkin referee wise.

    the best pick for Povetkin would be Terry O'Connor, as soon as he'd back Wlad up for even 2 seconds, good old Terry jumps in and saves Wlad from the inevitable punishment that would soon follow

    superfight??

    what has povetkin or wlad done to make it that? What you mean is this is his first meaningful defence in a good while.

    Wlad is no longer beautiful. Getting scary looking in his late 30s.

    Povetkin bench pressed 3 45's on each side and the bar. Thats a lot of weight, so I can see that he is in shape for this fight

    What's with all the weight lifting....that doesn't seem like a very good idea.
    He's not going to match Wlad in strength, Povetkin should be working on speed, not this crap.
