    I think you have to be a little better than Stevenson to handle Kovalev, and would pick Sergey. That being said, I wish we could see what happens when someone survives that initial onslaught, and Stevenson might be that guy.

    Fight needs to happen.

        Yea I thought the same until Bellew decided to get back on his bicycle and let Adonis control the ring. Bellew was fighting better coming forward and applying pressure. He was just getting T'ed off on circling around the ring trying to counter Adonis's left hand.

          Does Ward have a suspect chin as well?

            If I were to bet money on this fight I would go with Kovalev by KO. I hope this fight happens next year.

                Kovalev I think. Stevenson's a very good athlete but I think it probably takes better defensive ability than he has to handle Kovalev.

                  If Darnell Boone gets more than 4 days notice he takes Stevenson, Kovalev, and Ward in the same night.

                    They both can beat each other. Stevenson is scared of kovalev. Both are crazy strong but I think Stevenson is more versatile. I like how Stevenson goes to the body. Meanwhile kovalev is a power house that will walk through u and smash u. Anyone's fight really, but since Adonis is scared I will pick kovalev!
