    LOL the senior citizen is not stopping anyone.

    Also Dawson the guy who beat Hopkins is a better win.

    The same Dawson the got stopped by Andre Freakin Ward who stops no one, and beaten by Tommy Karpencey. Dawson's last decent performance was against Hopkins, Ward took his soul and left but a shell for he molester to feast on.

    Hopkins lost to Dawson like 2 years ago who Stevenson went on to destroy.

    I think the Pascal fight will tell us a lot about Kovalev, Pascal can take a good punch and will throw back some bombs of his own. Should be a good fight.

    The Stevenson fight is 50-50 right now in my eyes, Kovalev looks open to the straight left the punch that stopped him in the amateurs

    Pascal in his last 14 matches has 3 KO's of guys most of you have never heard of, he's never had a KO of a top fighter not even weak chinned Bute. So the KOing Kovalev BS really should stop.

    HEAR, HEAR! false hope from many pascal fans here, I Think Kovalev may take a few rounds to adjust to pascals speed, not his power. :deal

    cmon bro, you cant say that the Dawson that fought Karpencey was the same guy who fought Adonis. Dawson > senior citizen hopkins.

    do you think stevenson would be able to keep beterbiev off him with just a straight left? :think

    do you think after kovalev beats pascal he has the best Lhw resume after hopkins? :think

    No the Dawson who his chin crack by Ward of all people is the one who fought Adonis who caught him cold. Dawson was a top fighter until Ward took his spirit thoroughly. Also the BHop Dawson fight was relatively close. Adonis has a puncher's chance against Sergey Ill admit, but Kovalev has the skills and the power to be a potential career ending nightmare for him.

    Stevenson is not a one trick pony. I've only actually watched a couple Beterbiev fights, and going by the Lacy fight I'd say that he fought more on the outside than inside. Stevenson would either outbox Arthur or stop him.

    As for Kovalev, Pascal is one tough sob, I will give him major credit for beating a Pascal with RJJ. I'll give him a slight edge over Stevenson if he wins.

    Not just a punchers chance, Adonis has more skills and one punch knock out power than Sergey. I think his style plays perfectly into Adonis's hands.

    Beterbiev from what ive seen is a menace inside, mid to close range, i Fancy he could beat outboxed by a sticker and mover. I dont think Stevenson would be able to keep him at arms length for the distance, and i think beterbiev will make him pay for stevensons lack of ****nal. There is no right hook and not a consistent jab.

    edit: look at the short length power beterbiev possesses, when he gives cloud a beating.

    Hmm, from the fights I've seen he keeps his distance while he walks his opponent down. I don't really see him as a Rios type of inside/close range fighter. He's a great mid-range fighter, I guess i need to see him against better opposition to truly see what his style is like, I'm sure he can adapt well to different situations. I'm so confident that Adonis would beat Beterbiev thought, that I'm willing to take a hiatus from this site for a month if this fight ever happens. :good Can't really say the same for Kovalev, but I'd be willing to take a ban bet. I really need to say Beterbiev with better opposition.

    Maybe, maybe not, I can also see Kovalev feinting him and Adonis throws out his left and Kovalev KO's him with a counter.
