    Adonis pokes fun at Kovalev for facing his mandatory challenger Mohammedi to ensure that he doesn't get stripped of his IBF strap and then the next day he reveals he's fighting Timmy Karpency in a voluntary? :patsch

    This is a good match for both since their best win is Dawson. :D:yep

    AFAIK Tommy is literally a hundred times better than Nadjib.

    I don't see how this PBC is going to survive.

    HBO has been putting much more competitive fights. More exciting fights too.

    Is he now cupcake? Nadjib had a way longer winning streak, and actually had a close fight with Cleverly, while Tommy is only on a 4 or so fight win streak and was shutout and embaressed by Cleverly

    Btw, for all the €hit cleverly gets, a lot of LHW champs seem to fight his leftovers...

    Also, I'd prefer a solid non-ranked opponent over a mandatory bum.

    Then Kovalev would lose his title, and even before the cleverly fight he said holding all 4 belts was his dream. It's very likely he fights Beterbiev next and then Andre Ward, all while beating Cleverly, Hopkins, and Pascal before

    What's Stevenson doing? Fighting Karpency and then probably Oosthuizen next lol

    If that was true he would be a contender :lol::lol:
    Superpimp even had to mention Karp's RANKING in his announcement tweet because this fight is a complete joke and he had to legitimize it

    Look this guy is top 10!! So was Molina :lol::lol:

    What a conveniently unnuanced ''analysis''. Villager.
