    How :huh

    How can you mount an offense when an accurate power puncher is waiting for any openings to turn your lights out...You either go all out from the opening bell or cover up...I don't think Hopkins can cope with Kovalev size/accuracy

    Adonis will open up. Unlike Agnew. Agnew stayed around only because he didnt do anything. dont you see that?

    That Kovalev-Stevenson fight really needs to happen.

    For the life of me I can't understand why Agnew would sit there with his hands up and let a murderous puncher like Kovalev beat on him. If you punch that hard, sooner or later those punches were bound to break through that guard. Plus it's hard to block your face and body at the same time. Agnew should have used more footwork and head movement. Bad game plan.

    I agree with you that in Stevenson vs Kovelev it's about who lands first. Stylistically Stevenson could be a nightmare for him but what if Stevenson's chin doesn't hold up?
    Kovelev looked very average tonight in my opinion but he does have power can't doubt that.

    Kovalev hit Agnews arms and shoulders so much Agnew did not have any power left in them.

    I think Kovalev would actually beat Hopkins.

    That's his style, I said if he's gonna beat Kovalev he'll have to move a lot, standing around letting Kovalev tee-off on your is suicidal.

    Guy won every round against an undefeated fighter who has never been on the canvas (I didn't know that until HBO said). He looked excellent.

    Kovalev was sure in trouble after that 4th round.:lol::patsch

    Agnew hung around for a bit any gave him some nice extended(relatively) work in a live fight.

    Superman takes him down in the 8th or 9th round.
    I like both but Kovalev is not prepared for a guy that throws back as often and with equal bad intentions:shock:

    Ok I am off to bed gents:hi:
