People who crap on the hw division sleep on fights like this one.

THis...

Just cause Wlad is so much better, doesn't mean there's not a good 11-13 guys in the division who are all pretty close in terms of ability, and some great stylistic fights. I personaly like the idea of a dominant champ, and then a bunch of solid contenders. It's just not many contenders want to fight their equals - they aare scared of losing and missing out of Wlad payday. When he retires, it'll be different, though.

I expect this fight to have some good two-way action.

I'm leaning Povetkin in close decision.

[From Russia]

Donaire - Walters, Kovalev - Hopkins and Povetkin - Takam are the most intriguing fights this year

takam fighting good, povetkin had trouble findin range on the lead left..but found something with the uppercut in the last half of the 2nd

[Rostov Papa]

First round feeling out, pick 'em round.

Second round was close - Takam doing good work with his jab, but Povetkin landed a series of uppercuts hwen he got inside. Close round again.

I'll say 1-1 even.

[The Hammer]

Pretty even fight so far, both have landed some hard shots. Povetkin landed the best punch of round 2.
