    Anyone looking forward to Povetkin vs Whyte?

    I just hope this fight will happen next month.

    I'm thirtsy for some boxing and I think Povetkin vs Whyte can turn out to be one helluva fight. I slightly favor Whyte but to me this is a very even fight.

    I think somebody will get KO'd in an entertaining, action-packed fight.

    Not super excited but it is a sold fight. Too bad that Povetkin is up there in age.

      I think Povetkin lays Whyte out with a leaping left hook

        Meh. It's solid, not crazy excited.

        Think Whyte will outwork him in a close one over 12.

          Michael Hunter vs Whyte would of been better. Povetkin is too long in the tooth

            I am, but not with the same eagerness that I have for Joyce/Dubois. Povetkin in his prime beats Whyte easily, imo. This fight is more to see how much Povetkin has left in the tank. Good fight though, Povetkin/Hunter was good as well.

              It'll be a good fight until Povetkin fades and gets clipped, he's too old unless he's allowed to take his 'supplements'.

                Not really, 41 year old povetkins chances of knocking out beetlejuice is slim to none, because he cant win on the cards. Hopefully he turns up roided out of his russian mind and ices whyte duhapaus style

                  I think this is a great match up personally. Povetkin appears to have been completely written off but he is a very good fighter and destroys anyone but the most elite. Only klitschko and Joshua have beaten him let’s not forget.

                  This will truly give us a good indication if Whyte is part of the top end or not.

                    Povetkin hasn’t looked impressive since he returned from his drugs ban a few years ago. let’s be honest, a good version of Povetkin wouldn’t go life and death with Hunter.

                    He is 40 and looks it now but he might have a decent few rounds in him.
