    Roman Simakov -- he managed to take Kovalev's punches for 6 rounds and then collapsed -- never to regain consciousness... He died from brain injuries two days after the fight.

      Cleverly is very confident, but I think he's going to get into too many exchanges and he cannot take Kovalev's power. Kovalev by KO 6, I don't think he'll make his prediction of 3 rounds.

          British fighters don't really do the whole running/not engaging thing very well so I think you're right, they always get dragged into it. I'm picking Froch over Groves for the same reason.

            Wait, are you saying you would pick Groves over Froch if Groves could stay committed and box him?

              You didn't get it just right.

                  Evol was running around challenging people to money bets earlier..... posted his slip too. I hope for his sake he wins

                    If Groves could keep moving he could maybe win but the temptation to trade will be too much imo, that's where he'll get stopped.

                      Groves beats Froch.

                      Kovalev beats Cleverly
