Jack Johnson vs. Kovalev and Tua

In all seriousness, Burns wouldn't even be able to give Kovalev adequate work as a sparring partner.

 

Kovalev is 33 years old ,how much improvement do you anticipate?

 

Pascal doesn't have the speed or power to give Burns a tough fight.

 

I anticipate improvement to his resume.

 

Question is does he cave when hit and hurt and or in a tough fight. Until he proves himself he should not be rated with any ATG LT hwt let alone an ATG hwt champion.

 

versus tua tua by Ko Or Johnson by decisión .Johnson Would clown Kovalev

 

This is obfuscation. 33 years old? Pssst,he ain't gonna get any better!

 

My point is that we will have a better estimation of his true abilities, peaked or not, if he meets a few top notch fighters. The Ward match up will be particularly illuminating. He already has the look of greatness but that can be a chimera when it is achieved against second raters.

 

I agree , if he beats Ward and Stevenson he will deserve some of the accolades being heaped upon him , till then he remains a good fighter beating moderate opposition.

 

What has Ward done at 175lbs?

 

What Ward's weight is fight night is not my question .

My question is who has he fought at 175lbs ? As in which 175 contenders etc has he beaten? The answer is Chad Dawson .

How many 175pounders has Ward even fought?

 

Beating Ward does not mean he can beat Jack Johnson.

 

Or that he is a great light heavyweight.
If he beats both Ward and Stevenson I would give him kudos for having beaten the best in his division.
Until then he is not even established as the best light heavyweight .
