Alexander Povetkin v Mike Perez

[p4pking]

Both guys are very good and evenly matched, this could be a real fight.

[El Kabong]

I'm saying Povetkin will win by decision and he might score a knockdown late.

[Fenster]

This would be a cracking fight if Perez actually trained for it.

Was thinking about backing him @7/2 in the hope that he comes in like an Adonis (wishful thinking, obviously)

I backed him at 7.6/1 when odds first came out. I dont think hell win but price too good to resist. 7/2 looks right price given his unpredictability. Maybe wait til the weigh in to have your bet.

that's good odds, I think the fight will be similar to perez v takam and povetkin v charr..Charr had some success v povetkin in the first half of the fight and regulary hit him with some nice shots but povetkin was landing teh heavier shots and eventualy got the ko and in perez v takam, pere built up a good lead but tired towards the end.. So I think perez is going to build up a nice lead and then it all depends on the conditioning of both guys both of them have had problems pacing themselves through fights, perez v takam and povetkin v huck, I it's a good bet to put money on perez, although it really could go either way.


might be hard for perez to get fair judging though, although if i remember correctly the judges did seem to score povetkin charr pretty fairly(for the time it lasted of course)
