Samuel Peter vs Alexander Povetkin

Povetkin has got good hand speed and he's very very accurate with his punches, I can't see how Peter would beat him, seriously.

We don't even have to go into details..

and don't say Peter by brutal KO! lol Povetkin is a smart fighter and Peters power is overrated.

Povetkin UD.

Povetkin throws short shots straight down the pike. Peter needs space.
If Peter had the jab he did against Toney it would be a better fight but basing it on their last few fights, I go with Povetkin by UD.

Now that we know Peter can't walk through anything, a Povetkin hook could drop him (that same hook that McCline forgot about)

If Peter starts off jabbing he will do immensley better.

Samuel Peter would ko Povetkin, IMO.

Alex is very open for that right cross and would not be able to keep his distance off Peter. So, Peter by mid round KO maybe even early.

I say Peter because when Povetkin comes fowarded he'll get mauled by rabbit punches. Povetkin will do good, but I think Peter would get to him.

Don't know how good Povetkin's chin is either so I'll give him the benefit of the doubt and say Peter UD.

Samuel Peter looked like crap to me even though he stopped oleg. Oleg looked really piss poor in his last fight, he should be forced to retire. He isn't no holyfield/hopkins and Oleg did not age well for boxing.

Hard one to call. I'd go with Peter, if he boxed as well as he CAN. But, if he's trying to go for the kill, then he gets outboxed, nicely.

Povetkin would outbox and outwork Peter to win a UD in an exciting fight.

Peter by TKO. For the first time in a while, I saw Peter throwing straight right hands against Maskaev, Povetkin is the type of fighter who relies on outworking you to win the fight but he leaves himself open for right hands so I think Peter would knock him out with a right hand. Although it's entirely possible for Povetkin to outbox him to a decision.

Povetkin doesn't move his upper body and head enough when he is coming in. Peter would eventually catch him and KO him. If Povetkin ever learns to do that, he will UD Peter.
