Comments Thread For: Povetkin Hits Back: Ready To Face Tyson Fury in 2012

I really think Boswell is better than Fury actually. Boswell is actually pretty good, a good HW that finally gets his first titel shot. Boswell is a kinda slick technical fighter with some power. I think hes quiet underrated even though hes not the joungest anymore. Difficult opponent for Povetkin. Im glad Pove is not fighting Holyfield or Rahman.

I can't believe Fury has actually been hyped into prospect status. The limeys are all-powerful.

Who do you class as a prospect then?

Povetkin sez he's ready to fight any "contenders" but he's been running from the real champions, the Klitschkos, for more than three years. So now he's defending against a dude in his 40s. Big effing deal. Fight a real champion or STFU.

Helenius, Boytsov

Boswell better then fury is that the joke of the day he might well be more skilled then fury but fury is just going to be to big for most of the other challengers just like wladimir was just too big for haye, And did you see furys jab in his last fight it has plenty of snap in it and is improving with every fight when that is established as one of his weapons as he says he is going to do not many will beat him and hes gradually getting into shape i will put my ass on the line and say povetkin gets stopped by fury and will put all my points on that as the sole outcome any takers ? he has a few faults but every fight hes getting better.

Everytime Povetkin is referred to as a champion it further devalues the belt.

Just goes go to show how crappy the heavyweight division really is. Thanks for validating that.

Considering Im 42 I'd say my MMA career is pretty much over. But considering I've been involved in boxing at one capacity or another for about 25 years I'd say Im more than qualified to state the simple facts.

How about your credentials son? Got any?
