Comments Thread For: Kovalev's HBO Deal Will Keep Him as Active as GGG

Great news !

Now, both Golovkin and Kovalev can duck Ward with impunity

Main Events is already in negotiations with Roc Nation for a matching of Sergey and Andre (Ward) according to Cathy Duva in a video interview already posted on the Internet.

You can say Stevenson ducked fight then but now kovalev ducking it now especially with HBO banning haymon fighters from they network so it's no point in either calling eachother out anymore with Stevenson being lineal champ some argue he just paper champ you can forget a 50/50 split anymore since no purse bid superman would want atleast a 60/40 split and HBO would have to approve putting a haymon fighter on they network

Stevenson can't demand anything. He's lost his credibility since he struggled to beat Fonfara and then chose to fight two lesser opponents since then.

Fighting 4 times a year with bums ain't going do it and that's a slave contract

Kovalev has been fighting competition. He's not GGGing his way to stardom.

Stevenson had a deal in place to fight Kovalev and literally ran to Al Haymon to get out of the fight.

The guy pulled one of the biggest ***** moves of the decade now these Haymon fanboys are trying to project Stevenson's *****ness onto Kovalev...hilarious.

Kovalev now owns the majority of the belts at 175 just beating the biggest names in Hopkins and Pascal. Meanwhile Stevenson can continue fighting the Sakio Bikas and looking like **** getting 300k viewers on network TV LOL.

Kovalev is the Russian Bhop. He ain't losing to no black boys.

Don't curse him

I can't even think of 4 decent and drama-free opponents for Kov at LHW.

175 is loaded with young talent and by the end of 2015 guys like Gvozdyk, Mekhontsev, Shabranskyy, Gonzalez, Barrera, Browne, Prieto, Skoglund, Salamov, Ahlin will be in contention. Guys like Ward, Ramirez, Smith are likely to move up at some point too.

Kovalev will not be starved for quality opposition while trying to establish a legacy.

hahaha holy sh it that was funny

Active fighting who??? I guess if you don't got competition you might as well stay active. Haymon gots most of the 175lbers.

The **** I wanna see the most is some combo of Kovalev vs Stevenson vs Beterbiev. Kovalev is locked outta those fights due to his manager being happier with HBO & Main Events than getting his client the most money. I'd bet PBC would pay him more for fighting Stevenson & Beterbiev then he could make fighting for HBO vs mostly fringe contenders from now til 2019.
