    Agreed. Wlad was a shell of a shell & still held his own against AJ.
    Looking forward to see what happens when a Hook meets Joshua's chin.

      This is definitely a different challenge than Wladmir. Povetkin is dangerous and has good angles and power in both hands. Joshua needs to be on his A game.

        Haye seems to forget that the Povetkin that Joshua is fighting is also not in his prime. He's older and inactive except for the Price fight, which didn't last very long. Ring rust is the worst thing for an ageing fighter.

          Man.. the look on these clowns faces will be priceless if AJ goes to sleep at Wembley. Lmao. I will be happy only because we can start getting fights made again.. and Wilder can face Povetkin and become undisputed.. because u can't even offer thiis bi tch a 80 million guarantee to get a fight made!

            AJ wouldn't have beaten a prime Klitschko I agree with that by the time Klitschko got around to Joshua he had too many miles on the engine to compete with the newer models. We'll see though because Povetkin himself is no spring chicken he too has a few miles and also he's been popped for PEDs. So if Povetkin wins we'll still wonder if he cheated or not.

              I also wonder if Haye secretly wants Joshua to lose also

                Why people say Povetkin is tougher fight than Wlad who dominated Povetkin? It's beyond me.

                  Povetkin is actually active but that's not the point, he's getting old and he was never a world champion. He's dangerous but not as much as Wlad was.

                    Dude come on. David Price almost took him out. What do you think that Joshua punch is going to do to him?
