Comments Thread For: Kovalev To Hopkins: I Would Fight You Right Now!

[Larry the boss]

Shumenv and Murat are not better fights then anything Kovalev has done.

Hopkins looked like **** against Murat.

Kovalev destroys him at this point in his career.

Kovalev's best win is ****ing Nathan Cleaverly..

It is obvious now that Adonis Stevenson is the biggest fool in boxing. He chose to sign with Haymon and then refused to honor the agreement to fight Kovalev with the intention of going to Showtime and fighting Hopkins for more money. Now, he is in a situation where he will be fighting no one, at least until the legal issues are resolved. In the meantime, Hopkins may take the fight that Stevenson turned down. If Hopkins beats Kovalev (which I believe he will), he may then choose to retire or could choose to fight Chavez Jr. at a catchweight and then retire. That would leave Stevenson out in the cold with no big money fights because HBO is not likely to welcome him back -- not even for a fight against Andre Ward.

Biggest fool in boxing = Adonis Stevenson.

I agree!! #StevensonIsAFool!

You are splitting hairs. Shumenov and Murat are not great fighters, but Hopkins has fought guys at 175 who were better than anyone Kovalev has fought. Also, which of Kovalev's opponents do you think were better than Shumenov and Murat because I think all of Kovalev's opponents are on the same level as Shumenov and Murat?

Amazing how people doubt a proven atg who even at 49 is taking better fights then Kovalev...ya'll love to hype up anyone who has power, but Hopkins eats power punches up for lunch and has no history of ducking at all

Campillo beat both Shumenov and Murat. I'd say Kovalev beating him is obviously better than beating either Shumenov or Murat.
