Why fight Kovalev?

Because, like Ricky Burns, he cant be a "world champion" fighting bums.

 

Kovalev is getting too much hype, Stevenson just starched the world champion in one round and no ones even mentioning him.

Who's he beat? He's limited and easy to hit, Clev by wide UD.

 

Clev is getting mangled. Kovalev KO2

 

I don't think he necessarily is better than Lacy in every department. All he has done is beat Campillo who had a terrible camp and only arrived in America 4 days before the fight. Cleverly can take a punch well and out box him.

 

Bollocks. Does my nut when people make up complete **** like this on here.

 

Lol superman has been getting his props all week behave yourself

 

Maybe he thinks that a champion should fight the strongest possible contender....I know that the idea is a bit old school

 

What a load of rubbish. ****** only has one boxer with a belt in his stable which is Cleverly, he needs him to win and I believe us confident in him. He thinks he has another Calzaghe.

 

I keep reading that HBO are backing Kovalev but how do you know that's the case. For all we know they could well of said to both fighters 'you aren't a big enough name to headline against Hopkins / Pascal / Stevenson but fight each other & the winner will get the big money fights'.

I can't imagine HBO will have a problem with Cleverly winning. He obviously speaks the language, he's normally in entertaining fights & he's happy to fight in America as he doesn't sell tickets over here.

If I had to pick I'd go for Cleverly to win a points decision, though he'll probably have to go places he's never been to do it & that's not a very confident prediction

 

Whoever made that comment about ****** giving up clev for a good fee for one good fee obviously doesnt know FW. As if hes gonna give up his only pontential golden goose.

 

Very good fight who will the Russian fight after Hopkins ?
Oh btw Russian wins in five.

 

cant wait for when the Kovalev hype train ends

 

You're not far wrong on HBO's backing of Kovalev but talking complete bollox on W*rren's angle

 

In what way is Kovalev limited?

 

Never heard of him but if he is as good as what some people are saying then it's about time Clev stepped up....but is it a step up? In theory this Guy is a prospect...mind you so is Cleverly so should be a good fight.
