    It's ludicrous that some think B-hop would be using hype jobs like Kovalev and Adonis to hype his career. Look at B-hops opponents:

    RJJ
    Calzaghe
    DLH
    Trinidad
    Winky Wright
    Taylor
    Johnson
    ...

    B-hop may lose, after all he is FIFTY THOUSAND YEARS OLD in boxing years, but he's going to show Kovalev ain't anything special. I would not be shocked if B-hop wins.

    Hope so. Can't have Hopkins waiting ten years for Stevenson to get old

    I think B-Hop wins 90% of his fights nowadays on mystique and aurora alone, he somehow hypnotizes these dudes to fight his game, and them being awe struck or mentally weak fall for it

    Kovalev is a different animal though, tough, mean, and goes for the kill in every fight. I doubt Bernard can trick him into fighting his fight, I think Kov blows him away within 4 or so rounds
