    It looks like the very top fighters and fellow champs at 160 are quite convinced by him- hence their avoidance.

    think kovalev hits harder and golovkins more skillful. Kovalaev has done more for me and hes a better watch so i went for him

    The poll has no integrity... that is all fanboy votes similar to the one on fight game where 50% of his delusional fan base say he's the no.1 p4p fighter on the planet based off his wins of the maklins and rubios of the world...:patsch better then Floyd and Manny my a$$.

    I actually find most people either like both men or dislike both men.

    I believe GGG destroys everybody at 160 and below. Kovalev I can see struggling with Adonis and Ward but they are elite where as I don't believe there are any fighters other than Golovkin who can perform to a truly elite level at 160 and that includes Andrade, Canelo and Lara who would all be stopped without winning half a dozen rounds between them vs. Golovkin in my opinion.

    Good point.

    I don't think Kovalev would struggle with Stevenson at 175- he'd butcher him, but I can see Beterbiev and Brahmer causing him some problems (but would favour Krusher), Ward too if Kovalev goes to Oakland and doesn't demand drug testing.

    Golovkin butchers everyone at 160 most likely.

    I can't really decide. Kovalev is like the LHW Golovkin or Golovkin is the MW Kovalev to me. They are incredibly similar career-wise. It's like the Soviets have produced 2 of these in the 80's in some wicked experiment aimed to dominate the olympics.

    I think Kovalev beats Stevenson not so sure about Ward but I'd be rooting for him.

    Sillakh was Kovalevs Nunez.

    Sillakh can choose either to feast on clubbies and low level journeyman, or he can get stretched by every puncher he fights from here on out.:good

    Ward- or the last we saw of him- would be a big test I'd assume.

    But I don't think even Ward himself would fancy his chances in his first fight back against Krusher at 175, even if it was in Oakland with drug testing.

    lmao GGG ducked Lara? Al Haymon fighters always call out fighters from different networks cus they know they can hide behind him.
