Maybe Superman can sense kryptonite from afar.

Kovalev will dismantle this dirty pimp.

I don't like Adonis in this 1, but the 2 bouts of these guys last weekend was really stay busy bout...did any1 out there really expect a competitive bouts??
finally Hopkins has nothing 2 say...he would lose to both, but a better chance vs Stevenson...

For some odd reason, Stevenson doesn't seem to want the Kovalev fight. I have a hard time believing he is scared of the fight, he doesn't strike me as a guy who would duck someone. Then again, who knows. What I do know is that Kovalev is the OBVIOUS choice here by far, specially after fighting on the same card. Maybe because he is 36 they are trying to just get names on his resume (B-Hop/Froch) asap, no idea.

I think he wants to rack up some big dollars by fighting better-known fighters, before he risks it all against Kovalev. A loss to Kovalev at this stage would set him too far back for the big-money fights.

I agree, Hopkins is too old to fight true top-notch fighters with the knock-out power of Stevenson and Kovalev. They might want him, so they can put a notch on their belt by beating a legend- but no way does he want either of them.

THE fight to be made in boxing right now, and it's looking more and more promising.

Stevenson's so Bertoesque. I just can't ride with this guy.

Is that because they are both Haitian?

I hope HBO and everyone involved do whatever they need to do to get Kovalev vs Stevenson done and done fast, this will be a true mega-fight.

don't tell me how "spot on" lampley was...not a good boxing guy...sounds as if he's reading, mayb, most of his info....boring w/3 or 4(do we really need weisfeld, a non-contributor,in that any1 can do his job if he gathers the stats) guys giving support, though I like Roy...THE BEST, w/out question, w/out paper work or support, and a genius behind the mike: Don Dunphy...

Hopkins makes the less skillful punchers look very ordinary, they both scored kos against notably chinny fighters, it was a showcase people.
