Comments Thread For: Duva: Pascal A "Very Attractive" Option For Kovalev

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

ATLANTIC CITY — Sergey Kovalev might fight a transplanted Canadian from Haiti after all.

Kathy Duva, whose company promotes Kovalev, said she is open to making a Kovalev-Jean Pascal light heavyweight title fight later this year. Pascal, a former WBC 175-pound champion, is the second-best light heavyweight in Quebec, but still an attractive alternative to Adonis Stevenson, the current WBC light heavyweight champion whose highly anticipated showdown with Kovalev fell apart last week.

Good name fight for Kovalev, but I don't think Pascal would have much of a chance. Kovalev is the last guy in boxing you want to take rounds off against.

I would be much more interested in Stevenson vs Pascal. With Stevenson's chin issues and one handed style, Pascal might have a chance.

I though Kathy Duva was going to sue Yvon Michel over the stevenson stuff. If so, why would she make a deal with anothe Yvon Michel promoted fighter?

Yeah he has the right to match any offer. Maybe thats why Kathy is suing him over stevenson, to make him give up his option and allow this fight to be made.

I'm pretty sure that's the best available opponent now.

Let's see if this Haitian Canadian actually has a pair and is willing to fight Drago! Adonis is a piece of ****!

She said he can match it, she still might sue GYM.

Anyway, don't bother making it here, just make it in Canada. Bigger venue, gate and definite Canadian PPV

Thanks!

Yeah, after Kovalev only pulled about 2,500 in AC for the last fight it makes sense to make it in Canada.
