Odds are insane. Povetkin is just another circus freak who might stumble with decent Donald. And Akinwande is DONE. Holyfield-Savarese is the best fight next saturday. Unless Gonzalez schools Sturm. :lol:

Holyfield-Savarese is the best fight next saturday.

Or at least the least likely to be a stinker. :good

I'm interested in seeing how Povetkin and Donald goes though.

Anything featuring Akinwande could never interest me. I thought him and Platov have fought already.

Why is povetkin a circus freak? Thats a stupid comment.

Sure, the best HW prospect is another circus freak, what do we know.:nut

circus freak? maybe so....maybe he'll get owned by donald too...maybe he'll crash and burn.

having said that , there's one thing we do know...this circus freak also happens to have one of the best HW amateur record in boxing history.
and He also seems to be ultra dominant in all his pro fights.

but hey , shit happens...and maybe one of the best HW project in recent history is gonna get ridiculed by Donald soon..

I really hope not though.
Because from what I've seen of povetkin so far...He's one of the most exciting HW in a long ass time.

That avatar still cracks me up everytime i see it :rofl


Pretty interesting night by the way, two prospects and THE DUTCH SONNY LISTON !

[Heavyrighthand]

I'd love to see the Donald Povetkin fight.


Anyone know if it'll be show on the internet anywhere?

[RUSKULL]

Another good card that probably isn't available here in the states.................sad.

[Zakman]

Povetkin and Platov should win clear UDs. Their opponents are imported U.S.-based HWs brought in to lose. And neither has KO power so don't expect that to help.

I'm not too sold on Bidenko, so who knows, maybe "The Dutch Sonny Liston" might upset him. Wouldn't bet on it though - after all, Hersisia lost to FRAUDLEY!! :patsch

Holyfield will knock out Saverese, probably somewhere in the middle rounds.

[KillerInstinct]

Povetkin a circusfreak ?? yes, as if this European, world and Olympicchampion is a circusact. Foolish comment VHB... Look at his prorecord and think who was the last heavyweight with such a tremenous record fighting that superb kind of opposition in this stage of his career.
If someone is a circusfreak than your comment gets pretty close to that discription...

I think Solis got a chance to surpass Povetkin in terms of quality of opposition, he just needs to get back in shape!!

Donald is a crafty veteran, this is a big fight for Povetkin, I expect a UD win but Donald could sneak in the upset.

Platov-Akinwande, poor management by Platov's team..they beat Akinwande by SD in the first fight..why would you fight Akinwande again? There is no public interest and the money probably isn't even that good. You got the win, move on with Platov's career.

Bidenko-Hersisia, I have never seen Hersisia fight but I have seen Bidenko once or twice. Hasn't been the same IMO since getting starched by Virchis in a fight he was winning, but I will say Bidenko by UD.

[Heavyrighthand]

Donald will prove a real test for Povetkin, certainly. Povetkin will have his hands full with The Legend.

I think Donald is actually a very good boxer, even if he don't have a marketable name, or much KO power.

[pipe wrenched]

I will be watching Holyfield (as long as it isn't priced thru the roof), but i'm not implying that those others are not better fights.

[Club Fighter]

So Akinwande finally got over that lil' bout of Hep-B, eh? Talented guy, somehow he can't get it together.

[brooklyn1550]

I am most interested in Povetkin-Donald...however, this isn't the Donald of a few years back, so I think Povetkin will win a clear UD

[TamaTonga]

Larry Donald still fighting damn :smoke

[aliwasthegreatest]

or KO. Donald of old might have won. but now....nope

Platov should defeat Akinwande again.

Povetkin will KO Donald early in the fight or win a UD.

I don't really see Hersisia or Bidenko going anywhere. Maybe the winner will be Top30.

Holyfield must defeat Savarese -he has everything to do it- and then will probably get a title shot at Sultan Ibragimov.
