Alexander Povetkin vs. Mike Perez: who will win?

[Freedom]

WBC final eliminator, tentatively scheduled for May 22.

What's your prediction? Discuss.

[Lepinthehood]

Two tough hard hitting heavyweights, both have come in a bit fleshy. If they both come in fit and ready, I reckon povetkin would outwork him to a decision.

[Master]

I hope Perez wins as I would like him to fight Wlad. Povetkin put on a game effort but was not good enough. I do not know if Perez has a better shot but at least he will be different.

I'd rather Jennings have gone for Povetkin instead of taking the Wlad fight. Povetkin might be the 2nd best HW out there, he'd at least be a very tough ask for any other hopefuls, wheras Perez has blown a few chances now. That said, it wouldn't surprise me if Perez were to win this, he'll need to really come fit and hungry for it though. Good match, could be quite a fun fight.

[El Kabong]

Povetkin because he's the better boxer

[Violent Demise]

Povetkin is the better fighter. I'll go with him

[Beanflicker]

Povetkin by knockout

[Fenster]

Povetkin will win because he'll train for the fight and Perez will come in 20lb overweight.
