Why Kovalev is so dangerous and why he'll knock Hopkins out

I also agree- good analysis.

I think the key is whether Hopkins frustrates him EARLY or not. My guess is he'll be prepared for Kovalev trying to knock him out. If Hopkins is trying to take him deep, we'll see somewhat better-conditioning from him than we have recently. But only somewhat.

If Hopkins can frustrate him, I think his right will be what he scores with resultantly.

I'm not a big Hopkins fan, but agree that no one is going to be able to say he dodged the best fights as he concluded his career. Good for him.
