Seems Kovalev/Pascal rematch is signed for Montreal next year

[Hougigo]

How does he get to fight off of HBO?

HBO just has the US broadcasting rights. He'll fight in Russia and HBO will probably pay to broadcast it instead of paying for all the other stuff

So he could have fought Stevenson in Canada off HBO?

Fights not needed


looks like slim picking from here on out for Kov. Main Events backed themselves into a corner when they got Kov a exclusive at HBO. The only big fight I see in the future is Kov / Ward

not a Sergei fan but still watch his fights but if it's going to continue to be 45-1 underdogs that's going to suck

I will be disappointed in Crusher if takes this fight. He already beat Pascal easily so there is no reason for a rematch.

February? Hope that's the only fight in-between Kovalev/Ward then. Damn, that's a long wait.

Seven months is too long.



I was hoping to see Kovalev again this year, in November or early December.

Pretty sure it's North American broadcasting rights.

He's back again in Russia in November

Pointless rematch....this was always their plan as they were reporting it was a done deal all the way back in July.
