Povetkin: Is he the next Abdul Muhaymin?

[Enayze]

We all know Povetkin is stepping up real quick, but will he be able to achieve the fame and greatness of Abdul Muhaymin or is he another fighter who has been a hype job and is a result of poor management which might ruin his career early by putting him against Wladimir.

Who the hell is Abdul Muhaymin??

I'm a big fan of Povetkin, he's a very good fighter, has an aggressive crowd pleasing style and he has a great workrate for a heavyweight....He had a legendary amatuer career and won olympic gold medal.

I think his management are making a mistake throwing him in against Wladimir with only 15 pro fights under his belt, he's not ready yet, I can't see him beating Wlad...With that being, he should be able to recover from the loss to Wlad and have a successful career.

I don't really like Povetikin all that much from what i've seen. The Povetkin-Chambers fight was boring and fought at a very slow pace (even at Heavyweight standards)

I've only seen that one fight though so he can still impress, I haven't made a total judgement of the guy.

Oh man if you do not know about Abdul you better ask somebody.

I see your point..

Povetkin has real promise but fighters of the calibre of Muhaymin are truly one in a generation.. Greatness is like a Comet. It shines brightly but doesnt come by very often...Povetkins people (and fans like you) should set their sights a little lower..

I know it is a great expectation, and I am a skeptic to say the least.

I hate Povetkin, he beat up my boy Eddie Chambers.

I think he will get KO'd by Klitschko.

Eddie Chambers lacked an offense. He couldve beat Povetkin if he threw any bunches of punches.
