Comments Thread For: Wach: Povetkin Has Better Shot Now To Beat Klitschko

[BOMB ZQUAD]

But it's obvious why he had problems against Wlad. He has short arms and poor head movement. Wach is tough as nails could see him outpointing Sasha..

We'll have to agree to disagree, the only thing I see is Povetkin knocking Wach out or winning decision.

Sasha doesn't have the power to KO Wach, but I'd assume hed win a Dec. But could.see Wach putting up a tough one

povetkin has descent head movement. wlad was just too powerful for him. wach as big and strong as he is isnt a big one punch guy and doesnt use his jab particularly well. povetkin should win a ud without too many problems

povetkin doesnt hit nearly as hard as wlad but he throws more combinations to to the body so he could possibly stop wach. its a hell of alot easier stopping an opponent when theyre defending both body and head. wlad did nothing but head hunt on wach

Povetkin was beat down so thoroughly by Wlad unless he's grown four to five inches in height and reach he has zero chance in a rematch...

yea,,,,,despite all the ridiculous amount of clinches povetkin was getting hurt repeatedly during exchanges. I still think wlad could have knocked him out if he didnt hold so much. he had povetkin ready to go several times in that fight. povetkin has improved some since that fight and wlad is slowly regressing with age so anything is possible in a rematch but id still favor wlad

Russians are not known for fighting well at the Age of 40 and above so Povetkin has not mutch time left. He has only 2 good years left i think. I think hes in his prime right now but he wont get any better now. Hes 36 now. I dont think hes able to beat Klitschko even now though. As long as Wlad can clinch and hold as he wants, a shorter fighter like Povetkin will never beat him.
Fury, Wilder and Joshua are the only fighters who MAYBE can beat Klitschko now as hes getting old.

[daggum]

how does he have a better shot now? is wlad going to suddenly stop clinching everytime an opponent gets close to him? i don't think so.

Watch will give Povetkin a very tough fight.Sasha sucks against these monster tall guys.

Says the guy who criticised the fight when it was announced...

This gets better and better. To quote you from the fight announcement thread:

Wach is a stiff.

Duhuapas is waaaaay better than Wach. Wach is not rated highly by anyone..

So, this 'stiff' as you call him, is going to outbox and outwork Povetkin?
