    Just Watched Caparello Fight

    Just watched him for the first time. He has an awkward style and decent defense. BUT he gets caught with ONE good shot every now and then that is 100% unblocked almost every single time. Happens like once every 2 rounds or so. It's funny because he for the most part has pretty good defense, but this is like a constant gettting caught by one straight shot landing flush. It's even more noticable because of the fact he has decent defense. Not comparing him to floyd, but whenever floyd gets hit flush 1 time you feel like the world is about to come to an end because it never happens it is extremely noticable every time. He has pretty good speed and can move well. IF he takes 1 shot from kovalev flush like I see him taking in these fights I watched he's going to give kovalev a highlight reel KO the first time he gets caught i have no doubt about it. To be honest though he's probably just lazy because of the opponents hes fighting. If he wants any chance at winning he has to tighten up and fix that problem.

    To be honest though, I've heard this joke plenty of times before but this guy literally can't punch himself out of a paper bag and I'm not even joking. Whenever chris algeri sits down on a punch I feel like it produces more power than this guy. p4p this guy might just be one of the lightest punchers I've ever seen. Maybe he never sits down on a punch and tries to focus on improving his boxing skills but I literally never saw him land a single HARD flush shot.


    Lets be ****ing real here, kovalev's team knew exactly what they were doing when they picked this guy. Whoever is a boxer looking for a manager I suggest you go hire whoever manages kovalev because that guy definitely knows what he's doing. This is the PERFECT opponent for him. He is going to walk right through this guy. I'm predicting an early flatout one punch knockout, but if he can't put him away early the corner is going to stop it. If by any chance this guy has an iron chin he can possibly go the distance, he's skilled enough. There is absolutely no way in hell kovalev comes close to losing this fight in any way though.

    According to Boxrec, Caparello got floored in the first round against a bum. That's the only KD of his career though. Still, I think Kovalev's going to put a brutal beating on him.

    Apparently, his plan is to fight fire with fire. It's like he WANTS to be knocked out cold.

        If we're being honest Caparello is not much better than Rod Salka.

          This was the only guy who was willing to fight him. Now Hopkins is willing to give him a boxing lesson.

          Caparello is the Australian Algieri. WAR Caparello!!!!!!

            I never understood why Capperrello was getting any hype.

            It's pretty obvious it's because it's a Kovalev opponent so the fans and promoters have to hype him as some worthy challenger.

              Not even in the same stratosphere. Completely difference circumstance


              The 140lb division is stacked. 175 not only is not, but Kovalev was supposed to be fighting the lineal champ instead of Caparello and he ducked him.


              Garcia didn't have to fight Salmon. Kovalev had no choice but to fight Caparello.

              And with that said, Caparello is at least undefeated and ranked #9 on boxrec.

                Is Capparello also going up 2 weight classes?

                    Don't know who this is and don't care. Crap fight.

                    LHW sucks. Hopefully no one will stand in the way of Hopkins/Kovalev.
