There are currently ongoing talks with HBO for a televised date in the first quarter of the year. One possible opponent who Main Events CEO Kathy Duva mentioned to BoxingScene.com, is popular Polish fighter Andrzej Fonfara (25-2, 15KOs).

    In other words, so far nobody wants to fight Kovalev... Which isn't something unexpected...

          Since HBO doesn't do business with GBP, they are trying so hard to hype some guys by allowing them to fight b/c level opponents. Come on, Kovalev ko'd Silakh who had been knocked out on ESPN previously. Never would happen, if they still worked with GBP. He is no monster, Boone has already exposed him early on and he has fought really nobody's. Such hypocrites to cut down Stevenson's opponents saying Dawson wasn't the same fighter. Campillo wasn't the same fighter when he fought Kovalev. Everyone knows that Campillo broke training camp, was drinking and fighting with his wife. He missed several flights to NJ for his fight against Kovalev, showed up 2 days before the fight and was probably still drunk when he fought Kovalev.

            I didnt know about that but i could tell Campillo was done by his legs. Had those shaky legs before he was even getting hit.

              Stevenson would be best.

              Tavoris Cloud or Chad Dawson would be good, because they are established, recognizable names.

              Fonfara isn't ready for Kovalev.

                Was that the plan when Campillo signed for the fight, to fcuk around and not train? Why not train hard and expose the fraud, like he'd just done to IBF champ Cloud, and previously to WBA champ Shumenov?

                Speaking of frauds, aren't you a Shumenov booster?

                    None of these above will fight Kovalev.
