I wouldn't be surprised if Hopkins circles and avoids contact for the first few rounds until he sees that Kovalev is starting to tire somewhat. He frustrated the hell out of his last opponent by doing that and turned it on during the second half of the fight. Shumenov is no Kovalev but that tactic might work all the same. As long as Bernard can avoid Kovalev's big shots for the first half of the fight, he has a good chance of winning a decision. All the same, that is a big IF yet to be determined.
