Sergey Alexandrovich Kovalev vs. Eléyder Álvarez Baytar & Dmitry Bivol vs. Isaac Chilemba RBR.

I don't think Kovalev was gassed to the point of not finishing the fight, he just got caught by a guy with perceived power and that was it. I'm shocked Kovalev was stopped brutally by a guy with a 50% ko ratio.

 

Charles Hawtrey?

 

Maybe. Hard to tell since he got stopped fairly early in the fight (only round 7). He sure as hell wasn't getting caught like that in the first Ward fight, though.

 

dont despair, im sure svetlanas gaze will look less animate in the morning light.

 

Then I guess Paulie had some scary punching power himself

 

More a fan of John Cleese, personally.

 

Don't know how you came to that conclusion based off what I said but sure, whatever helps you sleep at night pal

 

i dont see how Kovalev was ahead on the cards i personnaly had it even after 6 with Kovalev clearly slowing down

 

Then I guess if Paulie hits a guy like you flush, you'd be sleeping ..lol

 

OMFG! Boone cracked his chin! He's never been the same since! ( /s )

 

Boone ko'd Stevenson in their first fight, so Boone can crack.

 

I think Chilemba knocks out Saturday's poorly conditioned Kovalev.

 

Kovalev vs. Alvarez

...I am seeing Kovalev fans saying he needed to hold to stay alive?!? What a day!

Kovalev is cool though. No reason to hate on the guy at all. Great run. But wow, Alvarez bringing the hammer and mixing things up!

 

Just watched the fight damn I thought Kovalev was turning up the heat and Álvarez was gonna be copping a beat down after round 5.

Though in round two I did kinda think Álvarez might have enough to hurt Kova when he hit him with that big right.

I guess it’s what happens when you get too overconfident, he could see he was hurting Alvarez especially to the body, got a bit too reckless and paid the price. I kinda feel Kova would stand a good chance in a rematch if he played it a bit cooler and just stuck to the body and played it safer on the outside.
