Expert picks: Discipline a must for Dillian Whyte, but can he avoid Alexander Povetkin's uppercut?

Alexander Povetkin got up from the canvas -- twice -- in Round 4. And in the fifth, he delivered one of the best KOs of 2020 to defeat Dillian Whyte and win the WBC interim heavyweight title in August, in the main event of a card staged at Matchroom Fight Camp in Brentwood, England, without fans in attendance. On Saturday, Whyte will try to regain his belt in the rematch, just eight months later.
