Hopkins Vs Kovalev Possible For Nov In Barclay, Brooklyn

This ^ has been said many times before.

I do favour Kovalev, possibly by stoppage, but I ain't putting money on it. 'Never bet against Hopkins' is a very worthwhile adage.

 

John David Jackson also knows a helluva lot about Hopkins. That will also play a part somewhat.

EDIT: Koba, I wouldn't put money on it either if this fight comes off.

 

If the fight gets made, they better make sure there is very good medical personnel at the arena. I love BHop, but I don't want to see Kovalev kill another man in the ring.

50 years old, no matter what you're putting in your body, is too old to fight someone like Kovalev. The last thing we need is another McClellan or Meldrick Taylor incident in the sport.

 

No need for special medical personnel cause Kovalev will have a very hard time to tag Hopkins like they all do. You come to me and tell it to my face what is Kovalev gonna implement to get to Bernard... I hope you won't say he's gonna throw a rock at him! The same is to say that he's not going to start throwing haymakers b'cause he's gonna miss all of them and will get outa balance, make a fool of himself and get battered in return. So let's suppose the russian will have the nerve to slip a jab to Bernard and try to land to set up a second punch. He's gonna spend rounds to set that second punch, more even so the third punch whether it is a hook to the body or a punch to the head... All you ignorant selves save you medical personnel to you psycho problems when Bernard slips and slides and lands punches unexpectedly on the slow and predictable WBO titlist. Remember, you were the ones who predicted a close points decision or a TKO for Shumenov and Bernard won 9 rounds to 3 in his last fight. Bernard is gonna send your robot to the CW Division.

 

It's on

 

hopefully sends you to remedial english class.

 

Jackson's the most important figure in this fight outside of the fighters themselves. His firsthand experience with Hopkins is a crucial edge for Kovalev.
