    who wins? Whyte or Povatkin?

    Very simple: I am suprised that there is a bias on these boards. I don't mean in a bad way... Its just that most of the knowleagable fan base regarding the Whyte, Povatkin fight, seem to be around even... Not exactly perhaps, but neither Whyte, nor the Russian stand out as a clear favorite. I would imagine the odds will reflect the conditioning, general preparation, etc for this fight... and will probably favor Whyte.

    Yet, it seems like here, where we usually line up with the picks advanced by representatives of the knowlegable boxing community, there is a big bias for Whyte! I want to test if this bias is true, or not. It would be interesting if there was a big departure from the general population, here on the boards.

    All I need is who will win. Don't care how, and it is anynomous... so if you think one guy is a pufter, you can still safely claim him to win here lol!

    My own conclusion is that Whyte wins this and does so fairly easily.

      I see this as a do-over for Whyte. He should have won the first fight, but Povetkin, being the live dog he always is, was going to be a threat for as long as he was standing.

      Just like the first fight, Whyte should win and I give him the edge. But it seems to me like Whyte is always getting dropped or hurt in his fights lately, and I don't have a lot of confidence he's not going to get KO'd again.

        Whyte.. BUT I thought he would prevail the first time too. Whyte needs to keep Povetkin at distance and he did a good job of that in their first fight, until he didn't.

          Thats his evil twin at birth they keep locked in the basement when he morphed . When things go wrong they bring out the Povatkin , part bat and Pig . They changed his name to avoid the authorities.

              It would be great if your twin, the one with the brian could make an appearance now and then... speaking of twins.

                Well, we have 5 votes in and its starting to look like we are more true to form than I thought... perhaps it was a vocal minority for the Russian? lol. I hope more people vote... and NO OFFENSE to those who are strong on the Russian... Please do vote. Im guessing though... its going to be a majority for White after all. But we shall see.

                  With no direspect to Povetkin... that punch came out of nowhere lol. I thought up until that point Whyte looked like he would win. Its not that it was a fluke, simply that there was not anything in the fight that lead up to Povetkin landing that shot.
