Comments Thread For: Wilder: Povetkin Did Nothing To Klitschko - And I'm Faster, Athletic!

[Outwest Exp 355]

If you think that Fury has two left feet then you clearly DKSAB. Fury has amazing footwork for a man of his size, hence how he was able to defeat one of the most dominant HW's of all time, despite not being a massive puncher.

Don't forget that Wilder was being completely outboxed by a Polish midget in his last fight, and only won due to landing a lucky punch.

His footwork is amazing? There's nothing amazing about that bum. It would be amazing if he was able to successfully defend his title.

But Wald is twice as strong as wilder maybe more, and that's the force that kept Povetkin from coming in on Wlad. Wilder will have to make Povetkin respect him. Povetkin does have a habit of coming in and then doing nothing. If that's who shows up Wilder will win.

Povetkin is definitely there to be hit. Very mediocre head movement and not really that great of an inside fighter ironically. I mean if Wach was jabbing Sasha with ease imagine what Wilder will do to him. Povetkin has to come up with some new tricks this fight to win..

His footwork is definitely good and definitely amazing for such a big man.

If you can tell me one guy in history who is 6'8 or 6'9 and moves like Fury, I'll back down, but I'll wait on that one.

Klitschko is much stronger than Wilder as he weighs a lot more, he could physically tie up and push down on Povetkin due to the 20lbs weight advantage. Wilder puts a lot more into his punches but he is not as strong or heavy as Wladimir and can't tie up on the inside. Povetkin will be the heavier fighter and will be able to physically push him around and dominate in the clinch. This is where Wilder fans get it wrong, he is NOT as strong a unit as Klitschko as his legs are like tooth picks and he doesn't have bulk, his balance is abysmal as well. Povetkin will annihilate this guy inside and land easy.

Mark my words, Povetkin will land heavy within the first 4 rounds and when that happens he will finish him if Wilder gets back up.

Wilder and Wlad have a different style. Wlad loves to grab and clinch. Wilder moves around to get out of range. I think Wilder will actually a much more difficult fight for Sasha due the distance Sasha will be trying to close for long stretches. Very tiring for anyone who has ever tried to fight someone like that..

That's what I don't get. He's stiff as a plank of wood. Literally straight up and down.

Lol. He's 6-7, you expect him to fight like Joe Frazier? He's using his height.

You must be trolling!

Duhaupus is a low tier journeyman. Christian Hammer, who Fury played with while keeping busy waiting for Wlad, is higher ranked and a better fighter all round than Duhaupus.

Wilder looked like he'd been in a war after that fight, and Povetkin, close in, is on a different planet than Duhaupus. If I said he hits at least 3 times as hard, that would be no exaggeration.

I hope Deontay wins and keeps his date with Fury in the UK, but it's going to take either a lucky punch or a display of boxing like we've never seen from him before for that to happen.

Geez you guys still talk like Wilder is some journeyman bum who just lucked into a title. He opened up as a -125 favorite against Sasha in Sasha's backyard. Sasha is a +120 underdog IN MOSCOW.

If anything Sasha will be the one under pressure to have the performance of his life..

That's exactly what he did!

Malik Scott, coming off a KO defeat to Chisora as his final elimination opponent, then Stiverne, a gloried journeyman himself, for the title.

Povetkin will be under pressure, no doubt about it, but I can't believe Wilder is favourite to win. If he is, I'm going to be putting some dosh on Sasha, for sure.

Points bet all in 2/1 odds your favour big balls. Forget about your eight quint.

All In?? Lol lets do it.

Whatever amount I have on fight night, if my guy wins you owe me double the amount. If my guy loses I give you all my points

Klitchko did make Povetkin look very silly during their match. If Wilder can keep the distance the same way, Sasha may get in trouble.

I respect Wlad but he hugged Povetkin to death. Wilder isn't good in the clinch and telegraph's his punches.
