    Dude has no power. I can only imagine he's going to try to outlast Povetkin. I'd be impressed if he could do it, but I'm pretty sure he can't.

      Kerry Keyes I'm sure will have done a lot for this boy but he'll agree he can only do a certain amount to improve him . Coupled with this it all depends on how far povetkin has gone back but then this is the art of matchmaking so we will see on Saturday night I guess but after watching him not emphatically control an aging and of condition sam peter the jury is very much out ..as for doing anything from 12-20 rds per day I can tell you that serves no purpose and I take anything above 12/13 with a very large pinch of salt . For a start he doesenr punch hard enough to keep
      Fighters off him over that period , bit of kidology going on here I reckon .

        Hughie is undoubtedly a contender.

          Alexander Povetkin had surgery on BOTH elbows after his defeat to Anthony Joshua in 2018; Povetkin is coming into this encounter with Hughie Fury after suffering a concussion and surgery. Povetkin reveals in this video that hes been only sparring for two weeks now.

          Alexander claims that he feels good, however all factors considered leading into this fight, one can only have doubt that Alexander is truly healed and fully prepared for this.

              We all know Hughie will just stay on his bike and hope Pov collapses from exhaustion.

                Hughie always get's pushed hard in training by his old man, but is he over-training? Maybe that one of the reasons he always falls just short at world level?

                  So expect Pov to have some kind of PED waiver.

                    Hughie has boxing skills but no power and doesn't fight with any sense of urgency (which can be a result of lacking power). We'll see how shopworn Povetkin is and if Fury's team timed this matchup properly, Hughie needs a name on his resume to stay relevant.
