        I like Hunter/Povetkin and Usyk/Takam. Not bad at all.

            Surely his opponent will need an interim fight too?

                Me too. I don't understand the complaints.

                    Usyk should fight a taller guy to get ready vs AJ. Say, like David Price or Browne.

                        But why Chicago? Is there a lot of Russians and Ukrainians there?

                            Yes there a lot Of Russians Ukrainians there. Just thought they would do a more marquee spot.

                                This could backfire hugely on Povetkin. Guy is too old for warmup fights. Never a fan of this sorta sh^t for older cats when any fight could be your last.
                                This is my issue, man. Hunter is a very live dog here to my mind. If he uses his feet to stay outta the way of Sasha's hook early I could easily see him dominating in the second half... would not be at all surprised at the upset. Hunter's a good and improving fighter and whilst I know HWs can fight later Sasha's still damn near 40 years old.

                                    Yep - big issue here is Hunter probably beats Povetkin! Mistake on his part to lose a bigger purse fighting Usyk.
