    Perhaps he should hire Gannicus. He would turn him into the next Loma. LOL

    Dosent matter who Segi gets to train him
    If hes going to have a know it all attitude and dont listen and put in the work ,
    why hire a trainer ? What trainer is gonna want to train a fighter with a fuked up attitude like that.

    This. Kovalev is an idiot. No fighter can train himself. A good trainer can catch flaws and help the fighter make adjustments if the fighter listens. Kovalev tried doing his own thing in the second Ward fight and wasn't even competitive after the first couple of rounds. If Shabranskyy paces himself and goes to the body early he'll end Kovalev.

    I think he should go with Bloodworth, but Shields and IB would be suitable back-ups.

    On a serious note. After this he should suck it up and return to Sanchez.... Do whatever he tells him. Sanchez is the best trainer for him bar none.

    if any punch was to end his career it would be the succession of them that landed square in his genitalia.

    idiotically i had previously thought that it was illegal to punch people there. turns out i was dead wrong.

    You guys are all a bunch of marks, Seroga is trolling you! He will have a trainer and at the very least he will have them in tow replete with chief second and cutman when he fight Shabransky. Although i stand by my earlier comment; Saying it would be awesome if didn't and even worked his own corner completely alone just him.

    Boxing today is more about personalities and getting noticed for being eccentric. A stunt like that would get people taking about him again and the money would start rolling in.

    Of course he'll have a chief second come fight night, but Kovalev's keeps proving everything Abel and Jackson said about him being difficult to work with true.

    Kovaled said, he's found trainer, but didn't disclose the details, and said that he would say the name later five weeks before the fight
