    Wlad should knock Povetkin out.

    I bet on Klitschko inside the distance, and also bet him -12 1/2 points in a parlay w/ an MMA fighter.

    I'd go heavy on Wladimir by stoppage, but he always lets guy hang around longer than they should, so that combined with Povetkin being by far the best opponent he's fought since Haye gives me some hesitation.

    So just like everyone else, Wlad wins big on points or stops Povetkin after the sixth round..

    Povetkin may have beaten the likes of Donald and Byrd but are they really that tough? Donald was 40 years old when he fought Povetkin. Byrd was 37 and was manhandled earlier by Klitschko a year earlier. Other than the two fighters, who else did Povetkin beat? If Povetkin can be considered as a titler contender at this early in his career. it only prove the sorry state of the heavyweight division in boxing.

    same as the others guys i think wlad might go for the late TKO after jabbing the hell out of povetkin.

    i think wladimir might be worried that the fight is in russia povetkins land with the president Putin there watching ,if it's close at all you could see the russian getting the points win so i think wladimir will try to get the KO around about the 10th rd .

    Wladimir keeps him away with his jab and play it safe. Povetkin will get frustrated and tired, Klitschko will make him miss and counter him with accurate shots.

    Wlad by lopsided UD.
