    How good or bad would you say it is? I'm personally not sure, but getting knocked out in the amateurs doesn't bode well.

    Untested against top opposition, but from what we saw against Boone/Amateurs, you can clearly see that it's extremely underwhelming.

    He was knocked out with 1 punch against Attoev...

    Stevenson probably knocks him out with 1 punch

    This is true....

    That is why the fight is so desirable by so many boxing fans.

    Both have enormous powers, both have extremely glass jaws.

    1 punch could potentially end the entire fight, in the 1st round!!! :deal

    if i were stevenson, id try get him out of there quickly, blitz him with speed, like he did with glass jawson.
    if i kovalev id attack the body from the get go, slowing down stevenson's main threat the big bomb left bomb.

    either way i doubt this one goes past the 5th round.
