Comments Thread For: Photos: Kovalev, Pascal Go Face To Face in New York

I was at that press conference today, I was surprised at how much bigger Kovalev is that Jean...it doesnt always mean anythign, but I was just surprised at how big the guy really is up close...we talked for a while after and he's a very large 175 pounder...

Interesting, Hopkins did say the same thing when he fought Kovalev. I think ideally the likes of Kovalev and Beterbiev would fight in a light-cruiser division.

That's pretty cool, was there a lot of people there?

Kovalev looks that big in person huh?

YES, Kovalev is a very large light heavy, definitely...very nice, humble guy, though...a mutual friend introduced us and I got to talk to him a bit...good guy...

[SN!PER]

Kovalev is that type of guy, you know he's incredibly strong just looking at him.

He has the genetics of a warrior.

Pascal saying he's the black Balboa, and it's the biggest fight in Canadian history.

Unlike Golovkin, Kovalev sensibly improved his English...

Look at the look in Kovalev's face. An ass kicking of epic proportions is going to happen.

It reminds you of the BBC?

Who do you got winning this fight John?

Hopkins rocked Kovalev in the 12th round.

Have you watched the fight? Replay clearly showed that Hop didn't land in that moment and that was merely leg tangling.

Easy work for El Krusher

Since when has Pascal been easy work for anybody?
