Really scraping the bottom of the contender pool for kovolev

The Aussies stepping up to the plate.

Well the only person he can fight that'd be good is Chilemba and Duva seems to be building that up because he's fighting on the undercard of it. Won't be televised I'm certain (because it's already a split site card), but she's been putting him on NBCSN. He put a nice ass beating on Drago's Son

Yeah i get all that, it just sucks that hopkins, pascal, adonis, ward, froch, etc are out there and kovolev is stuck fighting fringe contenders..

Capparello is basically there to go rounds.

Sukhotsky wouldn't be a bad choice slow plodder but strong.

[sugarsmosley]

lol will caparellos IBO title be on the line?

[Hougigo]

I heard people would've much preferred a Cloud fight

Yea, it's a good ass beating for the 3 rounds it'll last. Pascal is looking to hit him up though and the credibility he'd receive is even less than this fight.

Also I don't think Caparillo has the IBO anymore. Don't know who has it... don't care

[VG_Addict]

I think Kovalev will rule the division when Hopkins and Stevenson retire.

Jurgen Brahmer got the other important belt, Caperello belt is not that important
