If Kovalev redeems himself he is going to built a superior legacy. Maybe he wins this rematch or goes on a three year undefeated streak before losing to a washed up yet undefeated Beterbiev by viscious first round KO.
Beterbiev will be too busy nursing the badly broken temple Callum Johnson hands him to be concerned with getting a match with the Krusher.
I think Kovalevs flaws have been magnified a bit, if he admits he has flaws corrects his stamina and pacing issues he does have a chance though I see it similar to Stevenson vs Jack where I felt Stevenson did just enough to hold his belt. Kovalev early ko could happen too, he had Alvarez hurt in round 4 fairly badly, I didn't think Alvarez was going down but he was hurting him, Kovalev then just seemed to gas. he never recovered from round 4 and round 5 and 6 were close rounds Kovalev won but Kovalev was being hit the the body and FLINCHED so much, and then alvarez jabbed him to the body and BOOM.
I have no opinion of either since both their resumes suck as pros. and as amatuers they were both really good. I assume Beterbiev will be a heavy favourite, but alavraz was a massive enough underdog for me to put 50 on an outright win. (I picked Kovalev decision for first fight)
Lol just like Khan against Canelo right? Admit it Kova chin is not good and he WILL get "caught " agian!
Unfortunately Harolds score cards are so consistently bad it’s almost hard for me to keep the volume on when he’s working a fight.
