      Here we go......

      Hopkin's knows that as soon as he fights a live body, his old ass is finished! A unification bout is a unification bout. This fight will sell. He wouldn't go the distance. All of you guys praising him. For what????? Did he beat Ward? Who has he beaten in forever that says he's "tha man"? Smh. He is a walking corpse who is being protected.

          Because the showtime check was 40% more. So what needs to happen is Kovalev jump ship too. His checks can be bigger too. And one less hurdle to making the fight everyone wants to see. I mean, really, who is Kovalev going to fight on HBO? I could see if he was with Top Rank. He'd be stuck there. But Main Events has fighters that can compete on both networks. So if you want to fight the Stevenson v Hopkins winner, then jump ship!

          All these so-called hardcore fans talking about money shouldnt be the number 1 factor. Fighting the best should and when fighters use money as an excuse that its "ducking". Well guess what? Kovalev is NOT fighting the best, and he is NOT fighting the best because all the good fighters are on the rival network. He is losing both ways.

            Kovalev signed a multi fight deal with HBO.

              That is part of a ritual. After every fight, he trains hard for a couple hours on Monday and then takes a break.

                We'll too bad for him. He signed a contract getting paid less per fight, to compete on a network with no stars in his division whatsoever, to defend his WBO title. Stevenson gets paid more for a tune-up fight, than the pay HBO offered him to fight against the supposed biggest threat to his title reign. And he also gets to fight on a network that has the biggest star of the division, first ballot hall of famer, Bernard Hopkins, who holds TWO major sanctioning belts. This seems really simple to me.

                The only thing i dont know is if Kovalev signed his multi-fight hbo deal before or after Adonis left. Because if he signed after, then his handlers are idiots.

                  He signed the week before Adonis left. Main Events/Kovalev were under the impression Adonis would sign with HBO as well.

                    What does your dumb a** name calling have to do with anything? It's all about money, Kperiod!!

                    Kovelev has ZERO legitimate fighters on his resume, who needs to be afraid of him. Him and GGG are the most overhyped guys in boxing because they have a string of KOs just like all the that Matthyse hype.

                      No amount of PEDS would be able to save Hopkins from Krusher, BHOP knows this.
