    maybe ward, but i'd still pick kov. i think his fleet feet will be a nightmare for ward

    i think kovalev has come a long way since he lost to beterbiev in the ams and he's got more sides to his game now

      MAYBE Shabransky or Gvozdyk down the line if he stays at LHW for 2 more years...from the current top crop only Stevenson has a chance. Ward possibly if he moves up.

        Why the GGG mention? He is a MW and Kovalev is a big LHW who is koing everyone, let GGG beat someone at SMW at least before we have this discussion.

          It is in the realm of possibility that Ward and Stevenson could, wouldn't favor them but I do think both would cause Kovalev major issues (obviously very different issues).

            why do people even talk about GGG vs Kovalev. Kovalev is 2 weight classes bigger

              Adonis has too much power. He has ATG power at 175 and Kov has a weak enough chin for superman to crack.

                  Perhaps, I am sure both men are going to get hit real hard in that fight. If you throw a hard punch and get countered with a hard punch by a large man bad things tend to happen regardless of what kind of chin they have.

                    It would be funny to watch old man Popskins walking through his punches and clowning own him during the process of giving GGG a boxing lesson.

                      Simple logic people fail to understand, it doesn't matter how good of a chin either man has since they both have enough power to ko any man anywhere near their size.
