Also, to be fair.... is there ANYONE that Kovalev WOULDN'T be a favorite against?
He would most definitely be the favorite against any possible opponent out there, including Ward.
He's on the Floyd-Wlad level. No one at or around 175 comes close to Kovalev. He beats everyone, and everyone knows it.Comment

Stop it. He avoided Stevenson by finally fighting his mandatory after a 2 year wait. He wasn't even planning to fight Mohammedi originally, he wanted a purse bid, got it, then backed out.
Stop making it seem like Kov fighting his mandatory something virtuous or something he did out of a sense of honor or obligation.Comment

No he isn't. He is very good but unlike wlad and Floyd he has yet to beat the best fighter in his division.Also, to be fair.... is there ANYONE that Kovalev WOULDN'T be a favorite against?

Floyd and wlad are unquestionably the best in their divisions.
Kov has 3 belts, is destroying everyone, but walked away from a purse bid he requested to fight the lineal LHW champ.Comment

Man you're gonna stick to this **** til the day you die. Say what you want, but the fact of the matter is the fight should of BEEN happened. Stevenson ducked him, plain and simple.
Kovalev pulling out of the purse bid was on Duva/HBO, period. I refuse to believe Kovalev had anything to do with that.
Stevenson: Clearly, officially and universally recognized committed a duck.
Kovalev: Pure speculation
Stevenson ducked him when there were NO barriers to the fight. Kovalev "supposedly ducked" Stevenson while there were network barriers/he was in the midst of signing a new contract with HBO and who knew what they were telling him, etc.
Not even close to being the same situations and I know you know that, but I'll let you hold onto the whole "he pulled out of the purse bid" thing. OH and Stevenson is the best fighter in the division?!?! Stop lying to yourself, Dunn. Dude looks average against journeymen. He looked terrible against Fonfara and his best win is a shot Chad Dawson. LOL. Stevenson's "best fighter in the division" title is nothing but a sham, lets be real. Also, if he was truly the best..... why did he duck Kovalev the first time?Comment

Yes he did in 2014, then Kov ducked him in 2015.Man you're gonna stick to this **** til the day you die. Say what you want, but the fact of the matter is the fight should of BEEN happened. Stevenson ducked him, plain and simple.

You may love Kov and that's cool, but there is no way DUva made the call on the purse bid initially then the 180 without checking with Kov and his team. You know it too.
Do not lie. Kov resigned with HBO AFTER pulling out of the purse bid. Again, I get you like KOv but stop making what he did any different than Stevenson.
That you are more upset with me for posting the truth than you are Kov for his actions speaks volumes. Point your anger in the right direction.Comment
