    If he fights Kovalev the way he fought Gardiner he has no chance. I've only seen Alvarez in that fight so I don't know him too well but based on that performance he will not make it thru 3 rounds with Kovalev IMHO.

      HBO will showcase these guys one more time, then i think they look for a summer showdown,,,

      HBO is the one putting up the money, and this fight is one of the biggest HBO can make this year,,,

      With hopkins on showtime, ward staying at 168, chavez-froch looking to collide this summer, and pascal not looking to fight stevenson,, bute losing, All the big name options are taken for stevenson,, Kovolev still could fight pascal

      Im pretty certain we will see adonis-kovolev sometime in the 2nd half of 2014

          Pascal will be in line for another big fight, but the bute fight didnt bring huge HBO numbers so there isnt a huge demand for him now,, He will probably be everyone's back up plan,,,

          Kovolev vs Pascal would be interesting matchup,,,,,,

          pascal will probably be inactive till december and then fight a tune-up, knowing his track record in the past

            I'm sure Canada won't care because they're both big there, but maybe HBO will ratings wise
