Kovalev is a good boxer with some skills, but it is really his heavy-handed power which sets him aside and gives his opponents trouble.

My fear for Hopkins is that Kovalev could hurt/drop him even when Hopkins blocks one of his shots, Kov can hurt you even when you partly block his shots. Also like Golovkin Kovalev can hurt/drop guys with hits that even they didn't think would hurt/drop the opponent.
In conclusion i think the power will be the sole difference, Hopkins will be doing OK but at some point the Russian will close the show. Hope he doesn't get too badly hurt if he does lose.

bhop wins
After really examining i hopkins is gunna win by decision. I was there live front row for sillahk vs kovalev and i know how hard he hits but after watching kovalevs fight vs agnew and even campillo who he destroyed theres no way he beats bhop bernard is gunna frustrate him be dirty and win a decision kovalev doesnt hit the body well and is very predictable..this whole time i was thinking about kovalevs power but it wont matter he hasnt fought guys at bhop level and fought guys who just stood there with theyre hands upside their head blocking and letting him tee off like agnew..BHOP DECISION
