Povetkin looked real good in this fight. If he starts by getting past Barrett, I wouldn't mind if he was to face Ruslan Chagaev down the road.. I'd bet that would be a firecracker.
Povetkin was very aggressive from the opening bell and the 6'5'', 270 lb L'Heureux was barely able to survive the first round. The French Canadian was floored early in the second round, and soon afterwards the fight was stopped.
A more difficult fight for Povetkin will be on June 30in Moscow, when he faces tough journeyman Monte Barrett. Yeah, I forgot that=
Barrett will be a test
