Anthony Joshua promises to bring back aggressive style against Alexander Povetkin

[palmerq]

I would rank povetkin at number five just now. I have followed his career for some time and he's one of my favourites but I think the last few fights(hammer, price and rudenko) he is looking less vicious and a bit slower which would make sense and he is 39 soon :S... I'd rank joshua Wilder whyte and fury ahead of povetkin, not on boxing skills but more due to their youth and height advantages... Povetkins never really been that hard to hit either so I think this older version will not have a good time with joshua and I would tip Wilders to KO him too. Fury is just too tall and older povetkin would be smothered to a wide decision.. Povetkin would have a chance to beat anybody though, he had a great amateur career and is still at the top of the pros after all these years.

Good Post, top 5 guy, that's still a pretty solid opponent.

Everyone seems to forget Ortiz. There’s a reason Whyte refused to fight him even with a guaranteed title shot on the line. Ortiz is avoided out of existence. I can’t put a man who swerved over the man he swerved.
