hops doesn't even really have legit defense anymore. truth is you will not only see kov pummel hops you will also see kov outboxing hops the whole time until the enviable ko happens. hops has nothing to offer kov and I mean nothing. this isn't a hungry 160 lb hops fighting some no hoper ( like his whole 160 lb reign was ). this is kov who is currently better than hops in ever category at the particular time. hops is 50 FIFTY and hasn't looked good, ( I mean good as in a true top fighter in the sport) in close to a decade for hops health sake I hope I am eating massive crow on sat night, i'll eat crow like I said if hops makes it a true competitive match for more than 4 rounds
Kovalev should work Hopkins's body, and keep up his work rate. He needs to trap Hopkins against the ropes or the corner, and work his body.
I find it amusing that people liken Kovalev to some face-first brawler who doesn't have a modicum of boxing ability.
If it goes the distance, Hopkins will win for sure, even if there are multiple knockdowns and Kovalev deserves to win every round. All the judges are not only from the USA, they are from the same part of the country as B-Hop. We'll have some home cookin' on Saturday night.
The domination was so overwhelming, corruption and dishonesty were beyond the realm of possiblity. Boxing wins!
