The chance of him getting KOed are quite low, at this moment nobody has ever succeed putting him on the ground for over a second and he fought a hell of a lot more serious competition compared to Deontay Wilder.
Wilder got a few good qualitys compared to Povetkin.
His reach is superb, his height is superb, his speed is nice, but, their lungs are equal.
I'm not sure about Wilder's chin, it's clearly not made of glass, but I don't know yet if it's make of steel, like Wach's chin, either.
Povetkin's technique is superb, Povetkin got more experience, Povetkin got a harder punch (I don't care how many people say Wilder hits harder, he doesn't), the entrance will be much much much more impressive as Deontay Wilder has ever seen, while Povetkin is used to it, and Povketin got the hometown advantage.
Hometown advantage doesn't mean the referees are unfair, I'm convinced the referees are fair, the fight is to big to cheat on, but like Klitschko who origionally created a trampoline for Fury, Povetkin might create a little bit smaller boxing ring for example, piles of things like that, and it's easy to act like they don't understand English.
I think the fight will go to distance and the winner will win on winning most rounds. I expect Povetkin to win the early rounds, Wilder the middle and Povetkin the latest few.
It will be a very very very very close fight, if someone get's KOed I expect it to be Wilder, I don't think Wilder himself has the power to KO Povetkin despite Povetkin getting old.
Povietkin lives in Chekhov, close to Moscow, and its located about 150m above the sea level, he comes from Kursk which is about 250m.
Povetkin has a great chin, i cant see Wilder KO him, maybe just kd him if lands a very clean punch as Wlad did. i think sovietkin ko's wilder in about 5 rounds he seems very vulnerable to me, just no one landed a clear punch on him, Pov is not a Stiverne, hes faster,better technically, better prepared and personally i think hes hitting harder.
