Not any more, apparently. I can't see any other result but an early to mid round destruction by Kovalev. I'm a Brit and now Clev's finally stepped up it'd be nice to see him do well but I think Kovalev's on a different level, certainly in his ability to deal punishment.

Kovalev's quick, mobile and delivers combos with speed, accuracy and devastating power. The only questions are his chin and stamina. I've seen him walk right through some decent shots, and Clevs not gonna be the one to test his chin. Clev's most effective strategy will be to get on his bike early, and hope than Kovalev somehow gasses in the later rounds. Maybe Clevs hoping he'll be able to dance in and out, and slowly nibble at Kovs confidence and stamina, but I think this wouldn't be wise.

In fact, for all that I'm very happy Clevs taken a step up, I have to consider this to be a considerable step too far for him.

Maybe I'm too high on Kovalev, but the destruction he brings to the ring is something really unusual. I can't see Clev lasting past the middle rounds whatever he does.

Man, I is like ... Nostradamus or something. Sometimes my own brilliance scares me.

Two weeks in a row. Macklin and now Price. Honestly I do feel for the diehard U.K. boxing fans, they really get behind their fighters and bring life and energy into an arena. On the upside you do have six weeks of healing before Cleverly gets it even worse.

Nothing personal: Don't kill the messanger...:hi:

I knew that Kovalev would knock Cleverly out, and he did!!!

basically what would have happened to cowardzaghe is he had stepped up without waiting a decade for an elite to get injured.

The Cleverly and the Cowardzaghe, sounds like a movie title.
