Jean Pascal reminds me of a bigger version of Tim Bradley for some reason, big frame, but no real power and on the edge of being in the elite list but not quite.

I don't think Kovalev makes it to Ward

Stevenson doesn't seem to have a whole lot of confidence in himself, but he has a rocket of a straight left and Kovalev isn't exactly iron chinned. The problem with Stevenson is that he doesn't really do anything else.
It's a fun fight because it could come down to who finds that big shot first. I'd go with Kovalev to beat him but it's the sort of fight that could end at any time.

Prior to this fight I made the mistake of thinking that Stevenson could catch Kovalev coming in too aggressively.
But this fight showed me what other people had seen and I hadn't: Kovalev is not a one dimensional power puncher
He outwit B Hop through enormous patience and tactical awareness. I dont think Stevenson has that. I still would worry about the Duck's power, but now I am fairly confident that Krusher can out box the Duck and put him to sleep.

Stevenson might be quicker, but we saw last night how good Kov's timing is, and his ability to control range
Besides, I haven't seen Ward make it to the ring himself
There you go, this pretty much sums it up. I think Stevenson is terrified of kovalev. After last night, he'd going go keep ducking

Like I said to you in another thread, Stevenson is a Haymon NBC toy now.

Not so sure anymore. It's funny to think that if Kovalev and Stevenson fight, it's Stevenson who will rely on the puncher's chance between the two.
