Is Alexander Povetkin vs Anthony Joshua a gruesome / disgusting mismatch?

[No punch power]

Interesting theory I understood part of your idea but size doesn't truly matter if a boxer is shorter or physically smaller look at Mike tyson at heavyweight. Also Joshua has been hurt and dropped by a smaller lighter punching version of povetkin called mihai nistor. Granted this the amatuers but pov is an experienced pro with the right style to replicate the nistor fight although the present day aj represents a stronger challenge albeit a not entirely unbeatable one.

Size ALWAYS matters. There is a reason why Povetkin was dominated physically like he was a rag doll by Wladimir Klitschko which Povetkin had no answers to or could never adjust to. The same Wladimir Klitschko could not do the same to Anthony Joshua because Joshua matched Klitschko with size.

If a boxer is too small in size, they lack strength in their punches to effect heavier opponents. Christian Hammer was laughing off Povetkin's punches like they were nothing. Do you want to know why? Because of Christian Hammer's significant size advantage. Povetkin would have even less of a chance of even gaining Joshua's respect with his sub-heavyweight powered punches.

You're going to need a cannon to kill a blue whale. A small bullet isn't going to work. Do you want to know why? Because of the size of the whale. The bigger it is, the more powerful and bigger the weapon has to be.

Alexander Povetkin's small fist is going to probably bounce off Joshua's significantly bigger natural body as if they were nothing. Alexander Povetkin can't generate the necessary power required with his significantly smaller sized body to really hurt and KO Joshua. He just can't! He doesn't possess enough body mass to work with. If he took some performance enhancing drugs, he may gain extra explosive abilities to pull it off but naturally, he is as good as a feather fist and as good as dead.

Anthony Joshua against Mihai Nistor was much smaller in size himself. Current Povetkin could KO that younger version of Joshua because Joshua wasn't fully grown then. However, current Joshua who is fully grown isn't going to be affected by that version of Mihai Nistor's punches or even by Povetkin's punches. Joshua's chin isn't as bad now at his current size as it was when he was young and developing.

alexander povetkin is a fake heavyweight. The only problem with david price is his lack of motivation and commitment. A sufficiently motivated and committed david price is a real heavyweight who utterly brutalizes alexander povetkin just like any other real heavyweight.

There are elements of sarcasm but for the most part, I'm being genuine. Boxers like Alexander Povetkin and David Haye are blown up light heavyweights / cruiser weights. As such, they are FAKE heavyweights by modern standard. Therefore, they pose 0 threat to REAL heavyweights like Anthony Joshua, Deontay Wilder, Klitschkos or Tyson Fury.

Alexander Povetkin poses pretty much 0 threat to Anthony Joshua. Povetkin is naturally a light heavyweight / cruiser weight without his additional / extra unnecessary body weight consisting of mainly fat. Alexander Povetkin competing at heavyweight is like Andre Ward or Sergey Kovalev competing at heavyweight with 30 pounds of extra fat.

Alexander Povetkin was able to be competitive at heavyweight as a fat man and as an unnatural heavyweight through performance enhancing drugs. With those removed, Povetkin has practically 0% chance of beating REAL heavyweights like Anthony Joshua and Deontay Wilder. Povetkin is like an irrelevant insect that REAL heavyweights like Joshua and Wilder can swat away like as if he was a fly.

This is an utter mismatch of the highest order and FAKE heavyweights like Povetkin aren't credible opponents to REAL heavyweights like Anthony Joshua. For the sake of health and safety of boxers, such mismatches must be condemned, prevented and discouraged.

Anthony Joshua is too big, too strong, too powerful and too natural of a heavyweight for a fake heavyweight / blown up light heavyweight like Povetkin to be risking his life against.

This bout ends probably inside the first 4 rounds with Povetkin suffering life threatening permanent damage from the significantly bigger and stronger REAL heavyweight in Anthony Joshua. Whilst Povetkin's punches are simply going to bounce off Anthony Joshua's body like they were against Christian Hammer.

Povetkin not posing a threat to Joshua doesnt end the guys career . I would arguably put him top 3 body punchers still and he does everything better than Parker except get out of the way of a punch as the fight moves on but still gets hit less somehow .

Wheather he wants to fight more after he loses to Joshua is irrelevant itself , the fact of the REALITY that Povetkin should be ranked about 3 and how easily Joshua will defeat him too is on Joshua being far better not what Povetkin cant do ..............


I still stick by my prediction that Joshua goes undefeated until 2024 that i made in 2014 ..........think i'll make it ?

My point is that Anthony Joshua deserves 0 credit or praise if he beats a fake heavyweight that happens to be a natural blown up light heavyweight / cruiser weight like Alexander Povetkin. Anthony Joshua deserves no more credit for beating up a fake overweight fat heavyweight like Alexander Povetkin than he would if he beat Andre Ward or Sergey Kovalev if both Ward and Kovalev put on 30 extra pounds of fat and competed at heavyweight against Anthony Joshua.

However, Anthony Joshua deserves 100% credit for beating a REAL and NATURAL heavyweight like Wladimir Klitschko.

My point also is that a natural Alexander Povetkin has no business fighting at heavyweight against someone like Anthony Joshua. It's a ridiculous mismatch that simply shouldn't happen for Povetkin's health and safety which can negatively effect his life due to Joshua being a REAL heavyweight who simply couldn't be effected by feather fisted punches from Povetkin whilst Povetkin is risking permanent life damage from punches that the much bigger Joshua would land on him.

Alexander Povetkin getting hit by Anthony Joshua is life threatening for him. He could very well risk physical / mental permanent damage or have his life span decreased if he gets hit by the much bigger REAL heavyweight in Anthony Joshua.

Real boxing fans who care about the safety of the boxers should really condemn / discourage this bout from ever taking place.`

This is a REAL heavyweight:




Whilst this is a FAKE heavyweight that happens to be a blown up light heavyweight / cruiser weight:




The size difference is clearly apparent!

Now let's compare two REAL and NATURAL heavyweights side by side:
