If he can avoid him for 12 rounds... Which is what Hopkins will be trying to do... Kovalev just needs to throw that straight right to the body for the first few rounds...
If Hopkins is the "notoriously slow starter" some claim he is then this is probably going to be a short fight.
Credit to the 49-year-old for lasting this long but predicting he would win is about the dumbest prediction I have ever seen in 40 years of watching boxing
I don't think it was that bad. We didn't have the answers to a lot of questions about Kovalev, but now we have answers to many of those questions, and Kovalev has proven solid. Curiously, TS - who you got? Ward vs Kovalev at 75? :smoke
