    Kovalev can be beaten by a fighter who fights in straight lines and has more length than him. I wanted to see Kovalev vs Dawson for this reason. Instead, we're getting an even better fight: Shabransky is basically Chad Dawson with much more power.

    I also am convinced that Kovalev has lost interest in boxing after having his belts stolen from him, and then getting robbed again by the Jay-Z mafia. Kovalev is not concentrated at all. He even recently said that he drinks alcohol.

    My prediction: Kovalev will be punch-drunk by the end of this fight. Shabransky will knock him out in the early rounds!

    thats a bold prediction........but it s easy to produce this Kind of talk on some Internet Forum.

    here is whats gonna happen: after kovalev starches shabransky, who is obviously tailer made for him, you are gonna stay away from this Forum for a few days......then return and pretend like nothing has happened.

    but lets up the stakes a Little.

    if shabransky wins, my Profile shall be banned/deleted from this Forum by the Administrator. if kovalev wins....same Thing with your Profile.

    how about it?

    Yes, my prediction is bold because it goes against the odds. You are predicting what everyone else is predicting. You say you want to "up the stakes a little", but you're proposing upping the stakes A LOT for me and only a little for you. In fact, your profile is two years older than mine and has three times fewer posts, so you obviously don't really come on this forum often.

    The proposal should be the following: if Shabransky wins, your account disappears for 3 months. If Kovalev wins, my account disappears for 1 month.

    Your proposal is the equivalent of a 90-year-old and a 30-year-old betting their lives on something. Obviously the 30-year-old has much more to lose. That might work on some random idiot, but not on me. If you cared at all about your account on this forum, you wouldn't bet its existence against a fighter with one-punch KO power.

    So, will you accept a rational bet?

    I think I'll put my money on Fury getting offered the part of the whale in Free Willy 5: The Big Splash (both the adult and non adult version).
    Much bigger chance to see a return on that.

    Which is why I didn't mention admin.

    I'm sure they care a lot about you, though, since you seem to spend 8 hours a day on this forum.

    If that happened, I think we'd have a whale of a time.

    first off, just cause i dont post as often does not automatically mean im here less often. maybe im just more selective in regards to my Posts. in other words: maybe i dont post the first **** that Comes to my head just to cause a reaction and start some bull**** flame war.

    i have been here two years longer. so your 90 year old to 30 year old comparison is purely fictional.

    so you can Forget your 1 month bull**** bet. all or nothing. man up or shut up.

    and your Statement about me "predicting what everyone else predicts" is total bull****. i dont make predictions according to anybody elses opionions. and i dont "go against the grain" just to stirr **** up. thats what dumbass trolls do.
    i have my very own opionion based on what i have seen of both fighters. not what anybody tells me.

    and here is what i have seen: first off kovalev is not shot. you can make an arguement that he is still unbeaten. he won the first fight with ward imo. and in the second fight he was fouled by a low Punch.
    the way to beat kovalev is by boxing.......by being an awkward master boxer.
    shabransky is a bruiser. tough, hard punching.....but hittable. and he has been knocked out.

    in other words: tailormade for kovalev.

    so should i Discount that Analysis and still pick shabransky just to not predict "what everyone else predicts"?? that would make me a troll wouldnt it??

    bottom line: your prediction is one of two Things: 1) a prediction that is aimed at getting a reaction out of People......but doesnt really represent your real opinion. in other words: a troll post.
    2) this prediction actually reflects your true opinion.

    and this bet is designed to find out what you really are: someone to be taken seriously. or just a Little troll.

    it s up to you.

    No way. Put your money on Gamboa if you want to guess an upset.

    My comparison between the 90-year-old and the 30-year-old was not about age, but about what each man had to lose.

    You're a big-mouth who wants to bet his casual (possibly alt) account (3000 posts in 10 years) against my real account (9000 posts in 8 years). You want to bet your 100 pesos against my 100 dollars. If you want to bet, you need to put the same value on the table. In case you don't know: dollars are worth much more than pesos.

    When I pointed out that you'd picked the man most other people were picking, I never implied that you'd done so because you wanted to be like everyone else. I again wanted you to understand that your pick is worth less than mine in gambling terms. In gambling, when you pick the underdog, you get better returns in case of a win. You're proposing that I accept the exact opposite, since your account is obviously worth nothing to you, whereas mine is worth something to me.

    Judging by your feeble command of the English language, I expect you to understand as little of this message as you did of my previous one. Go back to talking to idiots.

    So you want to be banned if Kovalev wins? Is that right? I'm reading that right?
