    People aren't just saying Kovalev wins.. they saying he's gonna KO Bernard.

    Shumenov is a better fighter than Kovalev.

    your head says Kovalev will just ko him as soon as he lands clean but that is going to be easier said than done...BHOP is a master at spoiling and frustrating !!

    Hopkins on points:patsch

    Kovalev too green, Hopkins too crafty.

    Kovalev does not have to land clean, he might but he also might hurt him with a partly blocked shot or 2. Either way Kov by stoppage.

    Would be huge and I salute you for it, but I think Kov finally stops the old master

    I think Hopkins will feel the power and look for a way out like he did with Dawson - Kov by TKO...Hopkins will quit citing an injury before he's KO'd

    Hopkins has not faced a big puncher like kov in a long time but hopkins always seems to find a way to make fighters fight his way and take control. But he is old and one day it will catch up.

    I'm hoping for Hopkins to win it, but I would pick Kovalev.

    Kovalev is not Shumenov, you will see for 6 rounds Hopkins do what he does the best ugly fighting,
    then Kovalev takes over and maybe late stopege by Hopkins faking heart attack

    Hopkins shoulder was still injured in Dawson II.. I thought he still nicked that fight by one or two rounds though.
