Comments Thread For: Kovalev Says Hopkins Fight Not Possible, Stevenson Is

[boxingfocus]

What a total duck by Kovalev.

TV networks standing in the way of a fight... That's an excuse that Floyd Mayweather and Bob Arum would be proud of.

Kovalev needs to stfu all his trash talking about other champions. Kovalev GOT KNOCKED THE F OUT IN SPARRING BY GOLOVKIN. I saw it, he got knocked out twice by GGG at Big Bear sparring this last camp. Kovalev has fought absolute nobody's (look at his record) & you can't really count Cleverly fight as Clev quit. The instant Clev stepped up, it would have happened. & Campillo showed up 2 days before the fight with Kovalev, he hadn't been training at all, drinking, wife problems, etc. Campillo was not the same fighter that fought Shumenov & Cloud. Kovalev will get exposed for the fraud that he is when he fights someone real. Keep acting ****y and disrespectful towards the other champs, your days are numbered. By the way, did you give your purse to the fighter that died like you promised. No you didn't, you hypocrit!

You must have no understanding about the boxing biz.

I'm sure Kovalev would love to be the first one to KO 48-year old Hopkins.

Cause they were taking all their top fights to Showtime, and leaving HBO mostly with a couple of showcase fights. Before that they had an output deal with HBO that was not good value (smacked of extortion at times), and squeezed out most other promoters. That all made them a bad partner.

makes sense. man this is getting annoying.

If Stevenson beat Cloud, he will have to face Tony Bellew, his mandatory. No Stevenson-Kovalev fight until 2014.

Kovalev is a beast. He would maul B-Hop.

kovalev is the real deal I think he'd spark stevenson

[Zimmer!]

Kovalev got rocked by GGG!! Knocked on his arce! Lol! Now lets hope we get to see GGG's brother Shumenov do the same thing in 2014! Can't stand K!

Sounds like you are angry, did he refuse and autograph to you or something?
