Why has Kovalev not fought a puncher?

[dan_cov]

Kovalevs got a good chin. This is the punch that KO'd Stevenson and knocked Ward down

6:00 minute mark:

That was an open glove and not flush. He also knocked Stevenson out with an overhand right.

Also, all those guys you named sound like guys you'd criticize after the fact by calling them bums and didn't deserve the fight. I mean cloud is on two year two fight losing streak and it's heading to three in September

I'd be happy with Fonfara that is a good fight. More a case of I'd rather any of them than Blake Craparello but it would seem he was more or less forced into it.

lol "Why hasn't he ever fought a puncher" then lists two punchers he fought. Dafuq?

I named them because they're the hardest punches he has fought, IMO they're not really what I would personally class as big punchers. They have decent pop but they're not exactly what I would call big punchers or knockout artists. I think Boones unorthodox and managed to land some nice shots on a few highly rated fighters and its flattered him really and many fans think he is a bigger puncher than he is.

He could fight Alvarez, Chilemba, Williams, or Braehmer.

I see Kovalev dominating the division when Stevenson and Hopkins retire. Hell, he and Stevenson have practically cleaned out the division already.

Duva told the stevenson to move to showtime and they would join them once kovalev has finished his short term commitment with home box office but now they are taking advantage by accusing the stevenson of ducking, this is a very snaky tactic.

The team stevenson dont want to reveal this because they know the fight will happen but we must wait until 2015.

The kovalev lacks serious opponents during his short term home box office commitment and his next fight with Caparello will be a controversial draw to set up the winter rematch for his last fight on home box office.

Poor trolling, and it's Caparello.

lol this is like the Golovkin-Stevens debate.

Outside of Boone, Kovalev won't face a brutal puncher until Stevenson stops avoiding him. However, I believe Beterbiev and Mekhontsev possess great power and they could meet down the line.

They're both known punchers though. I don't know what to tell you. I just don't see anything suggesting Kovalev is being kept from punchers. Especially coming through one of the most dangerous punching gatekeeper types on the way up. I don't think Boone's being flattered by anything other than reality as far as his punching power. He just showed in reality his punching power multiple times the way I see it. But we'll have to agree to disagree I guess.

He fought, and beat, the guy that knocked out Stevenson.

Who is the most durable fighter Kovalev has stopped?

[Xing Bocksing]

Poor trolling, and it's Campellero.

That's a opinion of yours, fine. But i want you to accept you were wrong after the fight which will be very controversial sir, the kovalev is in a world of trouble but at least the winter rematch will be a good payday for his last home box office fight.
