Adonis Stevenson vs. Tony Bellew & Sergey Kovalev vs. Ismayl Sillakh RBR

Sebastien Bouchard wins a UD over Mohamed Sidi Slimani.

Beterbiev KOs Billy Bailey in round one.


Zewski-Davis is probably up next.

 

Good choices.

Also notice Kovalev has some major scare tissue around his eyebrows. I expect Sillakh's pinpoint jab to open up some major cuts on his face and that's way i have him winning by TKO between rds 6-9 on cuts.

 

Same!

 

Yeah, Kovalev does seems like he could potentially cut up.

Check out some of Sillakahs fights... His punches really slash guys up. He had Despaigne gushing from above both eyes, was tearing up Grachevs skin as well.

We'll see if he can handle the pressure and be poised enough to land those damaging blows. :think

 

Don't worry about it, no bookies are carrying odds on the Lemiux fight. Literally, not a single one.

 

Yeah that's my big worry.

Kovalev is going to be extremly dangerous early in the fight but if Sillakh gets past those first 4 rds then he wins the fight for me. Sillakh needs to get his jab going early and keep moving side to side to keep Kovalev off balance and frustrated.

Cleverly was just starting to get in the fight against Kovalev but just didn't have enough pop in his punches to keep Kovalev away. If he had survived a couple more rds i think he would have gone on to win that fight but he fought a stupid fight.

 

Checking in!!!

Let's have a great night of fights, no more BS stoppages!!

 

Fuuck. Really wanted to see Beterbiev fight. Forgot that Lemieux was fighting too. This card should be called Knockout Kings, unlike Showtime. So many guys that are fighting tonight can crack.

 

Also, left hook to the body is one of the most underrated punches in boxing.

Ismayl Sillakh's is amazing, he goes from body to head with it. We've seen him drop tough cruiserweights and light heavies in there with it.

Anyone remember china chinned Khan almost destroying the juggernaut destroyer that was Marcos Maidana and almost stopping him in one round? Eh, eh?

 

Are you sure Pac vs Rios is being shown first? doesn't say that on HBO website, usually they list it if it's being re-shown a week after PPV.

 

Clevery is a powder puff puncher... Not an issue but with his machismo bull**** he was always going to fail against massive punchers that took it to him.

I honestly don't think Kovalev has good stamina at all. I think he'll be huffing and puffing after 4 or 5. No one that throws shots as hard as him can maintain that kind of effort over 12.
