    Kovalev walks him down and beats him up.

    Kovalev. His long, rangey jab and accurate punching will go a long way to neutralizing Corbett's movement. Kovalev has excellent footwork himself, and is a master of distance control. His boxing is, at its best, superb. Add to that the fact that he has serious power, and Corbett will be lucky to go past 5.

    Lest we forget
