Outside of Wlad I consider this AJ's toughest opponent.

In saying that Povetkin is no spring chicken and hasn't really been pushed since his PED saga, so we don't really know how much he has slipped.

In my opinion Povetkin is very live opponent.

I also see AJ playing it safe until the opportunity presents itself, unless AJ wobbles Sasha I think he keeps it tight and contained, boxing a smart game plan.
