Kovalev's jaw is very suspect it seems

@Ripper11, i see Kovalev getting Knocked out by that same counter-left against Stevenson.

 

He's still fighting as far as I'm aware.

 

Kovalev is the best light heavyweight fighting today.

 

Shortest simplest answer:

They are hard working professionals that American trainers find coachable while the promoters discovered they can make money ofj. The snowball is gaining momentum and will only get more powerful in the future.

 

You are just showing your ignorance on the argument.

Only Kovalev and Provodnikov are Russians;

the Klitschkos are Ukrainian, a nation that has been invaded by Russian army, that has killed hundreds and hundreds of Ukrainians just because of their ethnicity. Holomodomor, search it on Wikipedia or wherever.

Golovkin? He is from Kazakistan, he is a mix and can totally be considered Asian.
Plus he became really annoyed when a journalist called him Russian.

He definitely doesn't like to be considered something he is not. :deal

 

I agree. We talk on how Boone has a punch btw but boone's defence is amazing too ( I mean his chin).

 

Thank you!

I understand the natural reaction fro Americans to bunch "former Soviet" people into "russians" but the fact is that Klitschkos, Usyk and Lomachenko are Ukrainians and God forbid you call them Russian to their face. It will be like landing in Dublin and calling every bloke an englishman....

 

Yes, I remember when Max Kellerman thought the Klitschos were German.............

 

Kovalev got up and won. Adonis got KTFO by the same Boone...WTF is up your a$$

 

wtf is this garbage thread

 

Yes, and Stevenson was actually stopped by him.

Are you talking about Ward, Stevenson or Kovalev?

 

Kovalev clearly doesn't have a iron jaw it could be his biggest weakness but against Bhop it won't be an issue. I could see BHop dropping him with a well timed shot but Hopkins no longer has the power to finish guys so if the fight ends early it will be Kovalev getting the KO.

 

not to mention that amateur video posted a while back.

ggg obliterates that chin. ggg ko 2

hmm i wonder if 154 superfights or 160 unification fights doesnt materialize could ggg skip smw (ward tied up froch dont wanna fight) and go directly to lhw? he knocks out stevenson and kovalev, hopkins will in all likelihood lose this weekend ..hmm

 

Um, not really.

How many Russian world champions are there?

Theres only 3 world class Russians, Povetkin, Lebedev and Kovalev.

Hardly an invasion.
