Joshua vs Povetkin predictions, betting tips and odds (Boxing - 22.9.2018)
- Written by David Bet
British legend Anthony Joshua put his IBF, IBO, WBA and WBO world heavyweight titles on the line against hard-hitting Russian Alexander Povetkin. Who wil win the fight at Wembley on Saturday night? This post contains our Joshua vs Povetkin betting preview with winning predictions, betting tips, enhanced odds, bookie promotions and no deposit free bets on this fight!
Joshua is the bigger man again with a five inch height advantage and a seven inch reach advantage. He has also proved his stamina against Parker and ability to steer clear of trouble and see a fight over the line when out in front. When Klitschko came up against Povetkin he dominated behind a jab and grab strategy, somthing Joshua has successfully done against Joe Parker. If favourite Joshua does get the job done the stage is almost set for a bout to decide the undisputed world heavyweight champion against undefeated American Deontay Wilder. Interesting stats tell us that only 30% of all bets placed on this fight have been in favour of AJ so far.
Povetkin is much shorter and more compact than Joshua. He is not fleet of foot, but likes to come inside, unleash body shots, and a big overhand right. He has serious KO power, as shown by his 75 per cent ratio of opponents he has finished in the ring. Anyway, Povetkin is past his best at 39 and we should not forget he was caught with a left-hook by David Price last time out and received a count in the third round. Should Joshua catch Povetkin with a similar punch, it could be 'game over' at Wembley.
