    Very good tune-up fight. Absolutely nothing to complain about. Nathan's a top-15 light heavyweight and a former world title holder to boot.

    Nate gave Fonfara a good fight .

    Krusher just shamelessly ducked Fonfara.

    Of course he ran from Fonfara and opted to fight Ward instead because Ward can't hold Fonfara's jockstrap.

    Reasonable match, given that HBO had almost no money for an opponent.

    No, he opted to fight Chillemba instead. Beaten twice by Tony Bellew - Bellew beaten by Nathan Cleverly.

    Why does Kovalev need tune ups while he waits for a career long 168 pounder?

    In case you haven't noticed Fonfara is managed by Haymon and fights on Showtime. Kovalev fights on HBO. Claiming that Kovalev ducked him is a moronic statement. Why would he duck him anyway? What can Fonfara do against Kovalev? Fonfara had a close fight with Cleverly who was obliterated by Krusher.

    Come on Dino.....

    Kovalev aint hiding from Fonfara you knucklehead.

    Kovalev simply wanted to give his homeland fans a fight, and Chilemba was ready, willing and able.

    Fonfara is managed by Al Haymon, and while Fonfara would be a better tuneup for Ward than is Cleverly, Kovalev doesn't need a chinny banger to prep for Ward, but rather a slick iron chinned fighter, which Chilemba is in spades. :good

    Ward needed tune-ups because he had only one fight at 175 so far.

    Fail.. Isaac Chilemba is under Haymon and fights on Showtime. Whose the moron now?

    Fonfara called him out and said he fight him in Russia. Kursher passed. Duck.

    Why does Krusher need tune ups while he waits on a career long 168 pounder??

    Fonfara is an eastern euro is a much more appealing opponent to the Russian audience than IC.

    Obviously YOU.

    Chilemba is promoted by Main Events just like Kovalev.
