    Comments Thread For: Kathy Duva Welcomes Hopkins-Kovalev Unification

    Kathy Duva, CEO of Main Events, is ready, willing and able to begin negotiations for a light heavyweight unification between her fighter, WBO champion Sergey Kovalev, and IBF/WBA champion Bernard Hopkins - who earlier today told BoxingScene.com that he's very interested in facing Duva's feared fighter.

    Kovalev (24-0-1, 22KOs) must first take care of business on August 2nd in Atlantic City, when he faces undefeated Blake Caparello (19-0-1, 6KOs) as part of an HBO televised tripleheader.

    It was widely believed that Hopkins would be facing WBC champion Adonis Stevenson (24-1, 20KOs) in the fall. But Hopkins confirmed to BoxingScene that there have been no serious discussions regarding a Stevenson fight in 2014. [Click Here To Read More]

      this article says none of the major networks would be willing to buy hopkins-mohamaddi...showtime bought hopkins-murat which is a much worse fight so why wouldn't they buy this one?

                  Yeah it's gotta be. Kovalev is locked into hbo, and the fight would be witnessed more on there. I like duvas comments there at the end, she knows she has to keep it 100 when it comes to dealing with some of those guys on the other side.

                                  Surely... We will be getting Kovalev-Hopkins in late October-November?

                                      If anyone could do it, the Alien could do it.
