Maybe Tommy should think about challenging Beterbiev instead then, it'll give them something to chat about.
Brahmer has a history of ducking real challenges, he is after soft touches and that's it. BHop will not fight Kovalev, Pascal will avoid it as much as he can. HBO will force the Stevenson vs Kovalev matchup, so expect that to happen at some point this year. The best chance for Kovalev is Chad Dawson, Fonfara, Cloud, Shumenov, or lesser names.
Yeah, that's a good fight, but would Braehmer take it? I like the Pascal fight too and I'd also love to see the Bute fight, I think those two should be possible in the summer.
:rofl ...more realistically, however, would be another guy who more or less aced the Rayco test: Seanie Monaghan. :think That would be some tussle. I would probably favor Seanie.
