    Wlad would probably Win by KO, however I give Kovalev at heavyweight an punchers chance. He just needs to land. Wlads borderline-legal defence show his own doubts about his chins vulnerability

      This is the worst idea I've seen since Mickey Bey went in for the kill against John Molina.

        Sergey very well could be a great cruiserweight champ. Has great snap and power in his punches from all angles. A little small, but his power is a huge asset.
        As for the heavyweight division, those guys are simply too big. Sergey and GGG for that matter have great power for their respected division's but HW is a different ball game. If James Toney fought like a boxer puncher or brawler he would have been KTFO'd. To be a small heavyweight this day in age you need to be a formidable counter puncher. The only reason Toney hung in so long with the heavyweights was because his shoulder rolling counter punching style was bar none. Sure I'd give GGG and Sergey the nod over guys like Chisora (maybe) But Haye or Wlad? No

          Sasha's 6'2" (off the top of my head) but they're entirely different builds - I ain't saying it's impossible, but Sergei just doesn't seem to have the right kinda shape to bulk up. Mind you - I would never have thought Roy could ever fight at HW either, but that was a kinda special case for a specific goal against a specific opponent - Roy wasn't looking for a HW career just a HW belt, kinda like Cotto at MW.

            He is at his correct weight now. He should just stay there and dominate. There is a guy named Wlad who is rock hard at near 250 pounds and he is a vicious puncher. Kovalev would be very strong at 190 and maybe beat all the cruiserweights but I think Wlad and maybe a couple of other heavyweights would be too powerful for him. He is a great light heavyweight and nobody can beat him at that weight. Why should he risk a loss by fighting at a weight he does not belong at against naturally bigger men?

              Kovalev could probably move to cruiserweight at the highest and do well but not heavyweight even though I think he could beat Pulev if he fights the same way he fought against Hopkins. It's just too much work to try to fight heavyweights for someone like Kovalev. Roy Jones Jr. did it against John Ruiz for one fight so that's why I think Kovalev could be successful against someone slow like Pulev. It would have to be a one fight type of deal. Perhaps Kovalev could fight Denis Lebedev for his cruiserweight belt in Russia.

                He'd get killed. Hell cruiserweights would be too big for him at the moment.

                      I can't imagine Guillermo Jones as a fricken welterweight. Dude is massive.
