    Should be easy for Kovalev probably under 6 rounds at worst. I don't mind him getting a soft touch he's facing Ward next anyway.

    Chilemba is better and tougher than most here believe.

    He got robbed against Bellew in the first fight (ended a draw), he got robbed against Tommy Oosthuizen (also a draw), he lost in a close fight against Bellew in the rematch and then got robbed again in an eliminator against Eleider Alvarez recently.

    Never been stopped, but of course not on Kovalev's level and will be stopped now. But late on

    Emm NO.

    The first fight was razor close. IC did not come anywhere close to being robbed. Even his own trainer said he was happy with the draw.:patsch

    Bellew demanded an immediate rematch and won in convincing fashion.

    You're hatred of our fighters is pathetic. Have fun in your European Union. :rofl

    Both Ward and Kovalev are fighting decent tuneups, and props to both fighters for signing the contract to fight in November!:clap:

    Indeed, Kovalev - Chilemba is pretty good. Chilemba is clearly top 20 at LHW, and has a case for top 10. #7 Ring and #13 Boxrec for what it's worth.

    Brand is not such a great opponent, but he's still a decent tune-up opponent.

    As did I. I expected a late KO, Chilemba took it to a decision - props to him.
