Kovalev is clearly a nobody here, he is an immigrant who took the WBOtitle from Nathan Cleverly and bases himself behind Main Events and Kathy Duvas skirts and J D Jackson personas. Nobody is frightened of the russian even though he looks like a psycho talking, Adonis left him talking alone, Andre will not get into a deal easily unless Main Events and HBO pay like they did when he stopped Chad and there is no one else to fight so he can well take a hike and go to MMA or to K1 where guys like that succeed. Damage Hopkins health?Oh please... This guy plays disrespectful and ends up with a broken nose at the face-off and cut all ova the face during the fight. So basically that's it, you don't like Hopkins or boxing, turn into the UFC and MMa and you will have orgasms with russians like that. This is a boxing board.

"But guys Hopkins is a HOF and his resume guys" - ESB tards

Hopkins previous accomplishments are irrelevant except for one: his inability to pull numbers. If both Kovalev and Hopkins are on free TV fighting nobodies, Kovalev outdraws him, period. Look at the facts.

It doesn't matter how long Hopkins has been in the sport, RIGHT NOW Kovalev has more star power. Do people even remember the Hopkins-Dawson PPV disaster? Hopkins is a negative fighter who has become even more negative as he's aged. Kovalev is what casuals tune in for.

Hopkins is piggybacking off Kovalev right now. He's piggybacked off many people before due to his lack of a fanbase and shitty style.

For every time he says "Kovalev" he is that much less likely to even think about fighting him.

Compare Hops HBO number to kovalev's. Hops last fight on HBO drew more than Kovalevs last fight on HBO.

Damage control in full swing.
BHop is safe and sound on Showtime, just like Quillin, Lara and the rest of the barking dogs.:rofl

What did I tell you ESB?

Hopkins piggybacking off Kovalev's name again.

I'm a gooddamn soothsayer.

Didn't Kovalev say he wanted to fight Hopkins after his win over Cornelius White, saying that Hopkins is a legend and that he wants to touch him? You could argue he is piggybacking off the back of Hopkins

You know you don't make any ****ing sense? First of all Bernard is a lengend in the sport and a household name and doesn't need to piggy bank of off a guy who until recently was fighting on the undercard of Adonis Stevenson's fights. Who the **** is Kovalev?
Secondly, the man was asked a question about a fellow belt holder in his division and he replied accordingly. If that qualifies as piggy banking that means 90 percent of top boxers are piggy banking of off other fighters name.

Kovalev is on the cover of Ring magazine who essentially proclaim him to be the next big thing and claim Adonis/Kovalev is the biggest fight in boxing.

Kovalev does insane numbers against an ACTUAL nobody in Cedric Agnew.

He's a nobody alright.

Insane numbers? Terrance Crawford a lightweight did better number than kovalev and I don't hear anyone calling his number "insane"

Hopkins-Shumenov did 760,000 viewers

Kovalev-Agnew did over 1 Million

How pathetic is it that this unknown immigrant is more popular than the mighy B-Hop. So yes Hopkins is piggybacking off Kovalev's name because he knows he isn't a draw

Dude you're no Eastern Euro and believe me those Russians don't give a fock about you. Don't worry though you still have Pauli malanaggi.

As for me being afraid of change. Child please. We've been hearing this crap about eastern euro's taking over boxing for almost 20 years now which is comical considering the closest they've come to conquring boxing is Wladmir klitschko which isn't saying much.

It would be impressive if Kovalev's numbers improve again for his upcoming fight.

That number is comparable to the numbers that regular Hbo fights pull. There is nothing exceptional about that number.

If Hopkins truly wants to fight, he has the power to make it happen. Kovalev's already made it clear he wants him! Not as bad as he wants Stevenson, but he seems to hate Adonis with a passion and want to hurt him truly bad... In any case Hopkins v Kovalev is in Bernard's hands. Please, BHop, make it happen!
