Jim Gray can be a MASSIVE prick, but props to him for bringing up Kovalev. And did anyone else notice a slight stutter from Stevenson once Sergei's name was brought up?

And now I REALLY got to consider picking B-Hop against Stevenson.

Nope none at all
Stevenson would give Kovalev the business

After what we saw tonight, I'm now even leaning towards betting on B-Hop to beat Stevenson. God knows what Kovalev would do to him.

Stevenson had trouble with a guy that isn't as good as the guy he avoided when he jumped ship.

Forget that Kovalev would've put Stevenson away in the 9th. Kovalev would've Dropped him before that. Stevenson was way too easy to hit tonight.

Whats sergeis best win?

 

[RedBull]

Hop is my man but Adonis is going to beat him, he's going to drop Hop.

I love you Hop, I'm sorry.

 

[Jello Biafra]

Is he better than Kovalev though?

I wouldn't mind seeing a Kovalev/Fonfara match-up. HBO's bum ass matchmakers should be on thephone trying to get that fight made right now.

I didn't see shyt in this fight that makes me change my opinion that Stevenson beats Hopkins. The challenges that Fonfara presented Adonis are not anything that BHop brings to the table.
And Adonis showed he can eat some flush punches thrown by a guy with decent power...Has Kovalev shown the same ability? Because Kovalev gets touched way too much for me to believe that he won't get fukked up when Adonis starts laying the pimp hand on him.

So, then, what kind of power does Kovalev have?



Not denying what Stevenson could do to Kovalev, but to completely discredit the other way around from Kovalev is foolish to do, IMO.

I didn't discredit Kovalev at all
My point was Adonis fought a guy with a good punch (who may not be a Kovalev level puncher but still hits hard) and held up well. Kovalev has yet to fight anyone with real punching power so how he would react to getting hit (which happens to him too easily for my taste) by a guy with heavy hands is still a question mark.

At least GGG fought stevens, who can crack. Who has kovalev fought that isn't a substitute gym teacher? Cleverly?

Can I get a link to the fights?

 

[yawn]

Only in boxing man

People really tryna discredit Stevenson even though he dropped and defeated a legitimate contender

But praise Kovalev who gassed out after 4 rounds against a timid undeserving opponent who hadn't fought in a year

Can I get a link to the fights?
