Comments Thread For: Lennox Lewis Tips Povetkin: Wilder Has Too Many Weaknesses

[TOBYLEE1]

I don't think that Povetkin needs tips of Wilder. His weaknesses are so obvious, the problem is exploit them with out getting KOed

[HandsofIron]

Yeah, Wilder has a lot of weaknesses, lucky for him the Heavyweight division blows chunks.

I've always thought Povetkin out of Wlad and Fury would be the one to give Wilder the most issues in a fight. However, I can't call it, Povetkin is a better all around fighter, and def has the power to KO Deontay, but I'm more looking forward to how Deontay performs. He will need his stamina up immensely and be ready to pump that jab for an entire 12 rounds like he did against Stiverne.

He can get Povetkin out, but he needs to be disciplined and stick to a game plan. If the opportunity presents itself for a KO take it, but I wouldn't be surprised if Povetkin wins this fight.

Wilder will ko povetkin

He will pump his jab into povetkin face and if povetkin gets past the jab he will walk into vicious combinations that will knock his ass out

Povetkin couldn't even beat wladamir, how's he gonna handle wilder

Lewis is just jealous of Wilder and hoping Wilder won't eclipse what he did in his career.

LMAO. I'm an American who will be rooting for Wilder in this fight, but this statement is ridiculous. Prime Lewis would have beat the dog **** out of Wilder like he did to Michael Grant.

I definitely see a lot of weaknesses with Wilder. He's about the rawest HW title holder I've seen. That said I'm not super impressed with Povetkin either doe even if I'd say he's got the better boxing IQ. I think this is a fairly even fight & I think its winnable for either guy.

Theres no way he's getting a decision nod in Russia.

Idk why people say this with so much ease & so often. What bad decisions have went down in Russia in the last 6-12 months? Bad decisions happen everywhere. I don't see that Russia has any more bad decisions than anyone else.

Although I tend to think this won't even matter as this fight will be a KO. Haven't seen a over/under on this fight yet, but I'm pretty confident I'll be throwing money on the under.

Wilder has a good puncher´s chance, nothing more..

Lewis is just jealous of Wilder and hoping Wilder won't eclipse what he did in his career.

Oh geez... like that will EVER happen. Lewis was undisputed champ, or do you forget? Do you actually think Wilder goes thru Ortiz, Joshua, Haye, Wlad, Klit, Fury, Parker?

[Vinnykin]

I bet Lewis watches Wilder and wishes he was 15 years younger...... No ****

[RussB23]

I think hes forgetting wilder is 6'7 with a long ass reach. Povetkins ass isnt even going to get close , hes going to eat shots from the outside and gets beatup badly for 12 rounds or get KOD.

Its ok though , lewis just doesnt know yet.
