    Kovalev chin exposed?

    He was clearly staggered twice against Pascal which is something I've never seen before. Considering Stevenson arguably has the hardest punch at 175 will he crack Kovalev's chin? Have we finally seen a major flaw in Krusher.

        The man doesn't claim to be "Superman" and he's never been stopped. Anyone can get staggered, it matters if you finish the fight or not. Comparing oranges to oranges, Boone dropped KOv, he KO'd Stevenson LOL

            No, but his ability to get hit by a fast and bold fighter became clear. His chin looked solid because he was never phased, despite being hit.

              Neither Kovalev or Stevenson have a great chin, could well be who lands first. I don't think either can take the other ones power that is what makes it so intriguing.

                Red K for DKSABitis. A flaw? If you spent half a day in a boxing gym, you would realize that getting hit with a solid shot can knock you out of even a solid fighting stance base, Kovalev wasn't really hurt except for possibly one time, but we never really found out because Pascal couldn't follow up with anything fast enough. Kovalev has a granite chin, Thor would break his hammer on it, get over it.

                    I didn't see his chin exposed but he is definitely there to be countered. It's going to be real interesting against an explosive and quick counter puncher like Stevenson.
