I completly forgot about this fight. This is a big test for Povetkin, I don't think he can KO Chris Byrd, but if he can outbox a master boxer like Chris Byrd and win a UD then Povetkin is definately the real deal. People forget that Byrd is a pretty good fighter, stylistically Wlad was a nightmare for him and he was beatdown twice by Wlad.

Povetkin by UD or late TKO

Don't matter if he wins cuz you know who he's fighting in the semi's boy.

Are you talkin about Chambers, I don't see him getting by Calvin Brock, Brock is a good fighter(don't let the Wlad KO fool you)

I say Brock wins a UD/SD

byrd close SD or povetkin SD

Don't care much about this match put if I had to pick a winner it would be Povetkin, not because he's a better boxer, he just has a higher workrate at this point. Close match though.

could be true I'll be seeing you around the time of the fight for some pts lay down. Brock got his ass whupped by Wlad everyone should be hoping that Chambers beats him.

I don't know why Byrd continues to fight as a heavyweight, he seriously needs to go back down to cruiserweight where he can be more successful. He's easily overmatched again, this will be like the Wladmir fight.

it would be terrible for boxing if byrd won this eliminator and the mandatory shot as wlad would likelt vacate the title before facing byrd a 3rd time after dominating him twice. probably the only reason byrd is fighting in this.
