    What's your pick on Hunter vs Povetkin?

    I think Hunter takes it. Decision win.

    Really liking Hunter, both as a fighter with a great attitude and cos he seems like a really good guy too. I know he's kinda unproven at HW but I think he's catching Sasha at the right time. That said, even an old Povetkin is a level above anyone he's faced outside of Usyk, and Sasha's never gonna stop being dangerous.

    Hmmm. Ask me again after the Pick Em goes up, but right now I'm thinking Hunter by closish UD although if I was a betting man I might just cover myself with a lil something on Sasha stopping the show early with a leaping hook.

          Not so sure that Hunter has the power to ko Povetkin, but I think he wins anyway, either by decision or late stoppage when Povetkin is gassed out. 12 rounds is very long for these ogs.

              I think it's closer than I'm seeing with the picks so far but I lean Hunter's way 60/40. Povetkin is no ez W. He landed a nice shot or two on AJ that mighta changed that outcome if he coulda landed a few more. Granted Povetkin is ancient now and Hunter is quicker and a better pure boxer but this is a big jump up in class for him.

                  Hunter by decision, I’m not convinced the styles will gel tbh

                    Povetkin by KO.

                    Hunter is someone Povetkin has had no issues with... meaning someone his size. Hunter does not have the power to stop Povetkin and certainly is not there experience or skill wise.

                    And this is not Las Vegas...

                    Povetkin by KO or UD.
