    Default War the boz!!!! (Povetkin - Boswell/Helenius - Chisora)

    On the undercard of Helenius's fight against Chisora, Cedric "the Boz" Boswell takes on Alexander Povetkin. Photos: Helenius-Chisora, Povetkin-Boswell Final FaceOffs - Boxing News

    I've beeing pulling for the Boz to get a shot at a title for a while now and he finally has his chance. He must understand that a win over Povetkin catapults him onto the heavyweight scene big-time. It almost guarantees him a fight with a Klitschko. He's the underdog in this one; make no mistake about it. However, I'll be rooting for him to bring the belt back to the States. WAR BOZ.

    I know nothing about the guy. Does he actually have a chance vs Povetkin?

    Can't believe he still only has one loss. Seems like ages ago that Jameel McCline stopped him. He was on his way to winning that fight too.

    Edit: That was ages ago.

    ....I'm going to go out on a limb and say that Povetkin will stop him in 6.

    Such a gangster call. I'm pulling for an upset by the Boz. Lyle, do you or anyone else, have some footage on him other than the Roman Greenberg KO? I can't find anything else.

    Does Povetkin ever stop anyone?

    On occasion and the Boz is an old man in the game now at 42, but like someone said, he only has one loss against McCline and he was close to winning that one before he was stopped. If he loses this, it will likely be the only title shot he gets so I imagine he goes out there and fights his arse off.

    That's about it man...I can't find anything, not even when he got stopped by McCline.

    He's a big guy and former perennial heavyweight contender from the late 90's early 2000's. He was in some good action fights as I remember and could punch and box a bit.

    But, now he is apparently 42 years old so who knows.

    He used to be pretty good, a bit better than Lawrence Clay Bey but not as good as an in shape Hasim Rahman.

    Povetkin will dominate! Maybe not a stoppage but it will be a one sided victory

    Well, the oddsmakers and his matchmakers think the same thing. I wish I could get my hands on some footage of Boswell. I recall he was beating McCline and tired out before getting Ko'd in the final round. He Ko'd rising prospect Roman Greenberg a couple of years back and recently beat Oliver McCall. My issue is that Povetkin is an athletic dude and he is liable to take the Boz to later rounds. At 42, can the Boz hang? Yet, I also think he's a cagey veteran who can box a bit and has a solid jab, which may give Povetkin problems. I may take the over here, directly in contrast to Lyle.

    Hard not to cheer for a guy that comes to the ring to Sam Cooke.

    Good fight here, Boswell is doing a great job outboxing Povetkin
    The key is Self-discipline.
