Povetkin will be on the end of the jab all night long and probably get knocked down or retire on his stool sometime in the seventh or eighth with massive facial swelling having won maybe one round in the entire fight. Seriously, imagine the Chagaev fight then stick ginger hair on Chagaev and a yelling moron in the corner and that's the fight done in a nutshell.

          I don't see how Povetkin's style can work against Wlad, his work rate won't mean much if he can't get in range to punch, and his defense is not good enough to get past Wlad's jab, he's going to be eating a lot of those jabs and straight rights, and end up crumpling.

            Anybody who hides in the bushes with a gun, with intentions of murdering a boxer (Donny Lalonde, who had just let Teddy go as his trainer) isn't mentally stable.

            I remember Teddy was yelling like a madman at Moorer, distracting him, and then **** Foreman lands and it's all over.

            I used to think Povetkin had about a 20% chance of defeating Wladimir, but now with Teddy in his corner, he has no chance whatsoever!
