Showtime was really pushing for Stevenson. Hopkins made it clear it's Kovalev

    Not saying at all that that's all Kovalev is, I actually think the guy can box, just pointed out something i've noticed on this site. I give props where they are due. You don't think guys with power get overrated on this site?

      If it is so it rather looks like Haymon doesn't need B-Hop -- because earlier this year B-Hop stated that something big is going to happen in the business but he declined to further elaborate. (It sounded like he was part of it.)

Let Hopkins say the same and that he'll fight Kovalev and it's "Oh Hopkins is just messing around, he'll never fight him". Seems to be a trend like that on this site when it comes to power punchers
        yeah I notice that also, kinda funny actually, I guess they enjoy going around saying how everybody is "AFRAID OF KOVALEV" instead of having him actually fight somebody

          Did B-Hop do anything to formally settle this fight? Or is just talk?

            Long intricate story that only a few could comprehend.

              I don't think you know what you're talking about. Hopkins recently gave an interview and said he considers Schaefer a friend for life, and though he is not signed to Haymon, "would have no problem signing with him in the future." You're the same guy who said HBO is gonna "make Marco Huck a star in America" right? Lol

                Any combo out of Stevenson, Kovalev and Hopkins is at least a step forward.
