I agree with everything you say, but styles make fights and Wlad wins IMO.
I'd favor Wlad as well, but it'd be a hell of a handful for him compared to the guys he's fighting now. Bowe stopping him wouldn't shock me at all, but I think Wlad would be able to take a decision.
I think Bowe is the more skilled of the two, but his lack of discipline I think causes him lots of problems. If he's as prepared as he was for Holyfield 1, I figure he probably beats Wlad. I figure Wlad beats most other versions of Bowe though.

So let me get this straight Keith: Wlad 'has the style' to beat all these kings, including beasts like Riddick Bowe, and yet Povetkin tomorrow beats Wlad?
So, Alex frickin' Povetkin in your opinion is one of, if not the, greatest heavyweight champions ever?

You have less sense than Keith Moon.
Povetkin won't win a round, he's just having fun with a long standing upset pick. Bowe at his best would beat Wlad & Povetkin on the same night.

Styles make fights. Povetkin beats Wlad, Wlad beats Bowe, Bowe beats Povetkin.

We'll see if I know what I'm talking about tomorrow night. When Povetkin wins, are you going to apologise?
Keith, if Povfatkin whacks Wladimir tomorrow I will erect monuments to you, you will be my God.
If Povfatkin gobbles up jabs all night then retires on his stool after nine stultifying rounds I am sure in your mind he will instantly become a heavy favourite to KO Riddick Bowe, Sonny Liston, and Joe Louis.

If Povetkin loses, it'll be by KO or a Shutout Decision.

I can't either, that's why I said normally I would say anybody has a puncher's chance against Wlad. I don't think Povetkin even has that...and I don't see him winning any rounds at all. Not even 1.
If he wins a round or two he will have done WAY better than I thought he could.

Guess is they haven't seen film on him. Walcott was a rock. Beat the shite out of Louis and Rocky M before getting caught and his KO of Charles was epic.

Walcott was a great boxer.
Haye is considerably bigger than Walcott was in both height and lean mass. He's got three inches in height, four in reach, and 20lbs on the scales, almost certainly at a lower bodyfat percentage.
