How do we see Kovalev vs other titlists at 175 after tonight's performance?

Would you say Krusher was more like your Scholes's or your Keanes's of this world?

 

Scholes's, Beterbiev is like the Keanes's and bivol is like the Giggs's.

 

Thank you! Alvarez did indeed look awful and your observations about him are perfect

 

He won’t beat Gvozdyk, if he’s disciplined I think he can just about beat bivol and bertetbiev as I’m not convinced on either. I think Bivol isn’t imposing enough at the weight, I get a similar feeling with Buatsi who I do really rate. They’re interesting fights, interested to see where he goes next and if he can carry his career on...

 

Bivol is with the best defense from all these, so he could go to late rounds with ease, and with his much better technique than Alvarez, he will get all late rounds + couple of early rounds=win for him without a big risk.With Beterbiev it will finish with KO, but the question will be who will eat that big punch.Gvozdyk's defense is not that good as Bivol's, he will have some problems in the first half.But Gvozdyk can be more agressive.Win for him by close UD, KO in late rounds or KO around 4-7 for Kovalev.Gvozdyk has bigger chance to achieve KO against Kovalev than Bivol, but also bigger chance to be KO'd(still not that big).
There was a negotiation for fight Bivol-Kovalev, all was ready for that, but Alvarez change these plans.I think if they already talked with Kovalev's team and the deal was for fight after Kovalev-Alvarez 1, there's no problem to make it now, the belt is again in Kovalev.

 

kovalevs best chance is against beterbiev . Kova loses to bivol and gvozdyk

 

Yeah, I think he loses to them all, at this stage. This is the way I see it:

Beterbiev
Gvozdyk (very close to AB, though)
Bivol
Kovalev (too old and spent)
