Stevenson-Kovalev is a 50-50 fight anyway. When you have two guys that punch as hard as those two with aggressive mindsets it's a 50-50 fight. First guy that lands the money punch wins.
Sergey Kovalev gets KTFO'd in the amateurs

I've been trying to find another video I saw (not the same opponent that's in the vid posted by TS) that showed Sergey get dropped twice, get back up wobbly and the ref stopped the fight. He actually had a Khan moment in this video. I tried searching for it on youtube in Russian using google translate, but still can't find it. Any help would be appreciated.
I will have a look I wasn't even sure he had lost by K.O tbh
In the U.K ''KO1'' can mean you lost by a bye/walkover.
I know Kovalev lost quite a few times in the AMs to Korobov so maybe that was it? I recall Kovalev saying something along the lines of he was sick of getting to the finals to meet him and falling short which is why he decided to turn pro.
A lot could be mental, from the things I hear he seemed to really lack confidence before and have little faith in his power or ability.Comment

As a Kovalev fan, that sucks to see. Not a good look to go down like that with Ammy gloves on. Head gear had no affect based on the placement at least.
I still think he would destroy Stevenson.Comment

Well I think Stevenson is the only one in the division who can land that shot with KO. The likes of Hopkins, Ward, Pascal can't do that to Kovalev.Comment

That's why I really want to see the stevenson and Kovalev fight. Both have some questionable chins, but the two of them are a very hard punchers.Comment
