My favourite fighter of the 2010's, a supremely skilled offensive fighter, but he should have learned a better defence whilst he was in the USA, or survival skills. When alvarez downed him, he could have survived that round if he didnt go back on his front foot, Alvarez looked extremely strong however and was fighting very well. Kovalev was wasting alot of punches hitting gloves and his stamina isnt up to it anymore, he used to be a better counterpuncher when walked down, his punches seemed to have lost the snap, probably due to bad conditioning. He is still very dangerous, but everyone knows what to do now, a shame he went out like this but what a fighter he was, he put the a strong sense of fear into his opponents when he was peak and i loved his style, a outstanding jab and straight right with destructive power, good bodypuncher, great pivots on the attack and terrific timing. He has been the most entertaining fighter of the 2010's for me, always a must watch fighter with a cool dangerous character who had some great phrases, he dominated LHW strongly and emphatically, just what boxing needed at that time! WE all will have to wait some time for another KRUSHER! Well done to Eledier Alvarez aswell you proved your mettle and power. But ultimately Good luck Sergey KRUSHER Kovalev for whatever you do, You will be missed!

Has Kovalev announced his retirement?

You will be missed? Has Kovalev already announced his retirement?

he hasn't announced his retirement and he probably doesn't. he's probably one loss away from doing so however.
