....I'm not only judging Povetkin on his last fight, I'm judging him on all other fights too.

Eddie Chambers has good defense no one will take that away from him but if you can't find openings then you have to make them either by moving or by using your strength and size and Povetkin for the most part fought Chambers' fight and took the hard road to victory....he didn't make Eddie fight his fight and that's bad, that's a young person mistake, that's a guy with under 20 pro fights mistake and that won't change without meaningful rounds in the ring.

Povetkin has an extensive amateur career....let's put that aside because it means fuck all in the pros. He has 15 fights and he's 28 years old. He's not ready for Wladimir he's no where near ready for Wladimir. You have to admire his guts for taking such big risks with his career thusfar but he hasn't fought ANY big time power punchers or even journeymen who had some pop.....this is going to be a very rude awakening Wladimir is 31 he has 52 professional fights 49 wins, 44 by KO....throwing a fighter with under 20 total fights in with him is like sending those guys to swim with Jaws!

Povetkin has thusfar beaten fighters who don't hit back....Wladimir has faced his deamons and he stood tall in victory afterwards, he has atoned one loss and he battered Sam Peter around the ring despite being knocked down 3 times....that night he told the world something he showed everyone his heart and his strength and that fight changed his mentality.

Let us not forget that Sam Peter was the "heir apparent" at that time and NOBODY wanted to fight him and Wladimir coming off a huge defeat came back from the dead and just absolutely whipped his ass....you could make a case that some of those rounds where he was knocked down he might not have lost
