    Kovalev throws fast straight punches with scary power and accuracy.
    First time watching him. I'm gonna youtube the crap out of him tonight.

    Let me eat my words in a few hours.

      I'd wager Kovalev's chin is better than Stevenson's.

        Maybe Silkah is just a very underrated boxer. I really didn't like what I saw in the 1st round.

        You didn't see him get caught with a check hook, and almost get knocked down?
        I didn't see that.

          dude that did not happen. I thought so too but on replay its obvious he did not get hit, he got pushed on the back/neck because he avoided the hook.

            Untested really though he was down in round 7 against Boone (same guy who dropped Ward & stopped Stevenson)

              LOL I've just heard of him last year. He really just came out of nowhere. Watch his fight with campillo. **** any fight. He is one of my favourite fighters today. Absolute killer with superb technique.

              And he is levels above matthyse in terms of skill I`m sorry. lolé

                Kovalev is a solid, fundamentally sound puncher. Always well balanced, good variety in his attack - just a better fighter han Matthysse.

                    HAHA, I'm watching on a crappy stream right now.

                      I didn't like what I saw in the 1st round, and figured he had a granite chin like GGG.
                      Go and watch his fights there's plenty of tape.

                      I don't think he's been hurt so far.
