    Kova hasn't been past 8 - Hopkins has been 12 rounds tons of times

    Kova doesn't have a good chin - Hopkins has decent power in his right hand

    Kova cuts easily - Hopkins throws great headbutts

    Kova hasn't had to show inside game - Hopkins specialises on the inside

    Kova has power - Hopkins has a great chin and defence

    Kova isn't as fast as Dawson, Taylor or pascal
    Great analysis... Waiting for more like this one.

      I only put 10 pounds on hopkins by stoppage, i thought kovalev would fade later in the fight but damn, that dude is a real deal, his performance was really impressive.

      Also i did make some money on szpilka and chelsea, so overall it was a good weekend. Thank god I didn't bet on Proksa like i was going to, he's done.

      My only regret though, is that i didn't place any bet on a draw in the sturm/stieglietz fight, that fight had draw written all over it, i don't know what i was thinking when i picked stieglietz to win by a wide ud.
      I wanted to put some money on Kovalev -- but I had to put too munch in order to win something decent and I was afraid of something like NC, TD etc... I gave up...

        you said hopkins wouldnt take the fight then you said hopkins would look for a way out the fight

        you doubted a fighter's heart, his willingness to fight anybody which showed pure ignorance on your part. if you have paid attention to his career, you would know he fights anybody.

        i have been a big bhop fan for a while . i picked him to win.

        theres a big difference , now im gonna save myself from having to read any trash you post , the ignore list is a great thing. peace and have fun hating on fighters and digging up posts where a fan of a fighter states a case as to why the fighter will win.

                Here's a picture...

                Great photo. Shows a concentration of disappointed people. I like it.
