Is Alexander Povetkin the next great heavyweight?.
I saw his fight against larry donald and he looked amazing . He has amazing speed and good head movement . He has old school skills such as feinting and body punching . He throws combinations which are rare for a heavyweight . He has impressive power . He remins me of a young tyson.

Tyson? I thought Povetkin was tall and fought tall?
Re: Is Alexander Povetkin the next great heavyweight?.
No against donald who is 6'3 povetkin was only an inch shorter . Povetkin crouched and bobbed and weaved his way in . Povetkin is only 6'2 and thats short for a heavyweight these days. He fought donald on the inside he didnt stick and move.

Answer to your question...NO He Is Not
Re: Is Alexander Povetkin the next great heavyweight?.
He's not a future great but he's got the potential to clean up the division right now. I hear he's fighting Byrd next.
Re: Is Alexander Povetkin the next great heavyweight?.
He will be a big name and will be champion imo. Of all the up and comers he is the most impressive, Arreola has good potential too. Povetkin handled Donald pretty easily and Donald may be at the end of is career but hes never lost a near shutout like that before and hes fought some good fighters.
Re: Is Alexander Povetkin the next great heavyweight?.
arreola needs to get in proper shape before he becomes anything, i dont really think much of him tbh, or povetkin for that matter. i dont think anyone can beat the klitscho brothers unless wlad gets sparked out.
Re: Is Alexander Povetkin the next great heavyweight?.
he ain't the next great heavyweight but he is a good prospect
