Comments Thread For: Sergey Kovalev Wipes Out Mohammedi in Three Rounds

[cupocity303]

They don't. Sergio Martinez had a belt stripped because HBO wouldn't approve his mandatory.

That's because there was no Light-heavyweight competition from across the street at Showtime. Stevenson took his "talents" to quote LeBron to the other network and they make sure to announce him as THE Light-Heavyweight Champ. Notice how Michael Buffer said "The universally recognized" Light-heavyweight Champ tonight. He was probably instructed to do that as HBO wants to have the champ on their network. And so having three belts matters.

Max Kellerman barely asks him about Stevenson and made it a point to say that Ward would be a bigger fight. Classic network War.

Personally, I'd like to see Kovalev move up. The only relevant light heavy fight is Stevenson, who doesn't wanna fight him. He could wait for Ward. But, GGG is a bigger name than Kovalev. So, Ward's probably gonna try and wait on that. I'd like to see Kovalev challenge Wilder. But I guess Haymon makes that tough. Kovalev's done all he can do at light heavy. The cruiserweight division isn't real popular over here. But there's a couple Russian beltholdets there. Plus, most of the tpp guys there would love to get on the HBO platform. Chasing titles in multiple divisions always creates interest and excitement. Something I think Kovalev should consider before his career hits a stalemate waiting on things to happen. Sometimes you gotta make things happen.

And you called me ******ed...

I don't wanna see another pascal fight. HBO better reject that ****.

You are ******ed, Kovalev has no business at heavyweight just as ggg has no business at light heavyweight, they are way to small for those devisions. Guys like you are the reason Meldrick Taylor fought Terry Norris

Pretty much every ATG light heavyweight has tested the heavyweight waters. Ezzard Charles, Billy Conn, Bob Foster, Michael Spinks, and most recently Roy Jones. Its just what great light heavyweights do.

Ward and Kovalev are the closest in size of any of the men you mention here, but you don't think Ward should make something happen by accepting Kovalev's offer to fight him?

You are fine with Ward hanging around waiting for GGG to finish business at 160, but want Kovalev to move up for Wilder?

That's nuts.

Don't think I said one time I was "fine" eith anything. I just understand the business of boxing. As a boxing fan, I'd rather see Ward-Kovalev than Ward-GGG because I think its a more competitive. As a person that dislikes fans like yourself, I'd rather see Ward-GGG. That's pretty self explanatory.

Krusher vs SOG...since Mister 164 is acting like a little b*tch....Krusher got enough talent, heart and balls to match skills with SOG...last night was just a showcase fight...nothing more!!....Krusher just took his dog out for a walk so there's NOTHING to get all hyped about....the Mister 164 fluff girls gonna overreact though...their loose vaginas probably got wet when Max asked Krusher about Ward ....hoe ass dudes!!

It was a mandatory dipstick - bitch at the IBF

IBF has this ****** habit of ranking (Euro)cans as "mandatories"...

Yea thars the fight to make. Hopefully HBO gets it done next year asap. Kovalev has zero options and if they are trying to sell another pascal fight or mandatory title defense then that's bull

[MDPopescu]

Kovalev is an animal.

If Kovalev was a simple animal it would have been easy... But he's rather a cold blooded professional killer...

[MDPopescu]

So what? I didn't know hbo just has to televise all his mandatory fights

"So what" what?
You were free to watch papa Haymon's Shumenov fight... Good entertainment indeed!... Thank you 'papa'!
