    MeatyPie is dishing out some Esoteric gibberish in this thread. Be careful people, it will suck you in and you will get taken over by the Meaty Magic.

      He did get knocked down or out by Abbos Atoev

      Atoev was a decent am fighter though (world Champ, beat Beterbiev and Degale plus others)

      Neither guy seems to have a great chin, but in the pros so far Stevenson's has been worse

        If you could show me definitive video proof of Kovalev ever bring hurry in the pros I'd be surprised.

        So I ask where did this notion come from? Are people just ******?
        everyone has seen stevenson-fonfara just like everyone is aware adonis got stopped in the pros.

        but the same guy who stopped stevenson dropped kovalev hard too. the only difference is that when he got up on shaky legs he was given the green light to continue and managed to survive but when stevenson got up on no more shaky legs the fight was stopped.

        kovalev was also knocked out as an amateur, a few times i think but im not sure. cant really compare him to stevenson in that regard since adonis didnt have much of an amateur career by comparison. i have seen him take bombs from pascal in the ams though and pascal can punch.

        as for fonfara, he can punch and it was more of a flash knockdown than anything.

        neither guy is all that durable tbh, neither one has a bad chin but either though. im not sure who is slightly more durable than the other, i personally think stevenson has a slightly better chin but worse stamina.

        its not very relevant at the end of the day, if they fight each other the fight wont go deep and either one can flatline the other with one clean punch.

          Never seen anyone say this. Quite the opposite.

              Video of the time? I'll try again later. Love it when you get it. The other hand is not intended for sending me your email. It was not able to make you feel like you would have a look.

                False alert you are looking at. The only way you could be wrong with that in mind. I'm sure you get it.

                  It is because we all have sensible fragmented fibers, as well as meaningful irregularities and a bonus.

                    I think both fighters are soft. Kovalev is a far superior offensive fighter, his offense is his defense. Once he starts hitting you, you don't want to throw back, so you just cover up and hope to survive.

                    I think Stevenson has a chance to KO him, that straight right hand, very dangerous especially in exchanges. Another poster posted vids of him being KO'd in the Am's, from what I heard he was dropped very hard against Boone, he was knocked down against Caparello as well.

                    Both guys will lose to Beterbiev, he is a bit slow on his feet, but a very powerful, strong fighter, durable as hell. He got robbed in the amateurs a few times. Saw him rock guys like Usyk in head gear, that takes a lot of power.

                      Right. But the fact is, I will have the option of you and your family and friends. I'm not sure how to make it work. We will have to be able to get a free online dating service.
