    An interview with his strength and conditioning coach. Also think kovalev will get pascal out in 7.

    Lol I agree. I think working on speed is smart though. I recently watched the Cleverly and Campillo fights. In both he was using a much more loose up right boxing style. He looked pretty fast for those fights as well. So it would seem that this is probably what they do when they are preparing for faster fighters.

    If Kovalev improved his head movement, he'd be nearly unstoppable.

    Even without it though, he's still a VERY good fighter.

    Kovalev is just another typical russian face first brawler with zero defence.

    This walking punch bag will be ktfo soon.

    Man I hate him and klitschko and golovkin too.

    kovalev can't get faster...he's naturally a very slow guy. it's biology...slow twitch muscles.

    but it's smart of him to realize that he's gonna experience a serious speed deficit against pascal. he won't see the punch that knocks him on his ass.

    he makes up for his lack of blinding speed with fantastic timing, same as Golovkin

    if he dominates Pascal in the same way he did Bernard, will you give him credit, or say Pascal was shot?

    Kovalev is fighting in weak era. This is only reason "these" fighters are winning some belts. You damned racist.

    He won't, he probably was going on about how Bernard would school him before the fight as well.

    By Olympic weightlifting standards it would be Slavic peoples. More fast twitch fibers are recruited in Olympic style weightlifting than any other sport by far.
