    This is what has always impressed me most about Kovalev which never gets mentioned and is a very uncommon ability especially for larger fighters. Most guys have to really plant their feet to throw with power Kovalev can do it while up on his toes and moving forward or laterally even if the opponent is trying to circle out. I also like how short his punches are when he starts throwing combinations they don't even look hard....until you see the opponent get touched.

    LOL.
    Calling black people racist makes as much sense as calling Russians integrationists. :rofl:rofl

    You couldn't respond to my post with reason, so instead you react like a little girl by name calling. Good job!
    I guess next you'll try to change my mind by offering me a BJ. No thx. :-(

    Its simply nothing fancy. Just really good basics to always end with a jab. Solid Eastern European amateur background.

    Your expertise is outstanding. Why don't you illustrate how your observation above squares with this actual Kovalev fight?

    :hi:

    No movement, no jab :rofl

    Kovalev's best weapon is ~timing~ and balance :bbb
