    No, I think if Kovalev gets his punches off Stevenson will go down and possibly out.

    I just think Stevenson can box him and wear him down.

    Asking who hits women harder would have been far more conclusive.

    He's going to have to make kovalev miss alot and move him backwards in order to do that.

    Here's the thing, Kovalev doesnt really miss.

    Watched it. What's your point?

    He was controlling George and was hitting him with hard shot all the way up to the 12th. George couldn't take his power anymore by the middle of the 12th round.

    Of course he doesn't, look at his opposition.

    Stevenson's opposition is better.

    Look how long George was there though. That little guy coming forward moving Adonis all over the ring. Kovalev has triple the strength and power of that guy.

    Don't act like Adonis has a great resume

    Adonis was outboxing him for a majority of the rounds and got him out of there. What more do you want man?

    You can't expect early knockouts every fight. The fact that he got him out of there in the 12th shows that Stevenson is a 12 round fighter, he can carry his power throughout the rounds. I think it showed more good things about him than bad actually.

    Kovalev hasn't shown that he can carry that power throughout the rounds, he hasn't shown that he has enough stamina to go 12.

    It's still better than Kovalev's.

    Anyways, let's leave the argument as is.

    I don't want to talk about Kovalev for hours on end. I'm excited to see him tomorrow though, the dudes fun to watch.

    You're missing the point of what i'm saying. If you think the Kovalev/Stevenson fight will go deep you're crazy.
    i'm saying, if George can move Adonis around the ring and pressure him what do you think Kovalev will do? Adonis basically has to rely on an early miracle counter left.

    What world class guy has he one punched? Chad Dawson was hurt and stopped by Ward in his previous fight ffs. The fact that Dawson got up after taking Stevenson's best punch indicates that he's not as concussive as people like to make out. He's a good puncher sure but I'm not completely sold on him. His power isn't as obvious as Kovalev's.

    ? He was stopped by Ward @ 168 and was stopped in 10 rounds after getting beat on the entirety of the fight and was knocked down 3 times.

    Who has done that to Chad b4 @ lhw? No one. Chad was by far and away the best LHW by the time Stevenson got to him.

    He got Chad out of there with 1 punch.

    What world class fighter has Kovalev beaten? No one. Give me a break lol.
    Cleverly? Campillo? Rofl

    Theyre basing their whole opinion on one KO.
