Bernard Hopkins vs Sergey Kovalev will be Like B-hop vs Kelly Pavlik

[big_james10]

Never count B-hop out. Matter a fact, I am counting Kovalev Out.

Hopkins will take him to school. Fickle boxing fans forget that this is the same Kovalev who turned down an opportunity to fight Hopkins to fight a lesser quality champion for the belt that he currently holds. Kovalev was considered a nobody at that time that had no chance of beating Hopkins. Now, fickle and unknowledgeable fans thinks he is the next Rocky. However, Kovalev is still the same fighter that Hopkins would have beaten had Kovalev not opted to fight Nathan Cleverly.

This is true as can be.

The People picking Kovalev to beat Hopkins I bet are the same people who picked Lucas Matthysse to beat Danny Garcia.

Not me! Ran with Danny vs Lucas and I think Kovalev is gonna kill Hopkins!

I don't think so.

When you bet against B-hop especially against hypejobs, you usually end up losing that money.

Kovalev didn't turn down Hopkins, Hopkins promoter and network turned down Kovalev and approved Murat
