    Can't wait for this one.

    Win or lose Hopkins gets a ton of credit for taking his one. Kovalev has a great and very real chance to become that one guy that fans say is/was one too far for B-Hop, or will B-Hop create even more history? Intriguing fight for sure.

      I was never a fan of BHop for a number of reasons, but yeah, credit where credit is due. The lightheavyweight division has the potential to be the most exciting in boxing at the moment, but looked like it was turning into a chicken-run till he stepped up to face Krusher.

        B-hop is one of the last "old school" warrior/boxers around.

          I think Hopkins will win this fight, but I am still very impressed with Kovalev... He is learning English quite quickly as well.

            "No strategy."

            "No strategy?"

            "I krush him."

            "You have a crush on him?"

            "I have big krush. I vill punish him all night."

                And if Kovalev wins, he beat a 50 year old. The pressure is on Kovalev but good for him he doesn't seem like he gives a shit.
