Comments Thread For: Duva: I’ll Talk to Someone in Montreal about Kovalev

... and that "French" guy, Nadjib Mujahedini (or whoever), is the IBF challenger for Kovalev... Poor Nadjib was KOd two times already (in the first round and in the second round, respectively)...

Adonis won't answer.
Pascal will rather look for the Bute rematch (as they can sell Bell Centre out).

Mohammedi is the IBF mandatory. After Kovalev gets him out of the way, he should go after Pascal (ranked WBC #1, WBO #1, IBF #3).

IBF accepts unification bouts instead of mandatory defenses... So Adonis still has his "shot" at Kova...

I think Pascal would be more interested in Stevenson first before he chases Kovalev. Close to having the fight mandated

The pimp (even old and negligeant as he is) would put Pascal to sleep

I would bet that Al Haymon has been on the phone all day trying to finalize a Stevenson/Pascal fight for 2015. Stevenson and Haymon refused to make the Pascal fight this year due to Stevenson's greed, but now that Kovalev is in the running for a Pascal fight, Haymon and Stevenson are likely in panic mode and are trying to get the fight made even before Stevenson fights his latest no-hoper. As Kathy Duva put it, Stevenson is now irrelevant or damn close to it.

I can see them pushing for pascal and giving stevenson the finger

... And you think that those unmerciful Russians made it to North America only in order to slaughter each other? They could have done it back in Moscow...

... They came to you in order to slaughter YOUR fighters, doe...

Maybe they could go back to Moscow for that one.

I'm not American, btw. If the unmerciful Russians want to come to the UK and slaughter some of our light-heavies that would be awesome.

Jean Pascal promoter Jean Bedard have confirmed having a talk with Katy Duva and Main event. Also Yvon Michelle also said they will post a offer to Jean Bedard for Stevenson-Pascal fight. Jean Bedard and Pascal will take the best offer between both.

I think the only one to be able to stop Kovalev is Artur Beterbiev. Beterbiev have a rock chin, destructive punches, but unlike Kovalev he's a monster in boxing inside (not sure how to call it in english) we have seen it vs Cloud.

Beterbiev-Kovalev is the fight i wanna see. I think Kovalev will let go the IBF belt. He clearly dont wanna fight Najib.
