Comments Thread For: Kovalev victims Agnew and White return to home base

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Since their losses to Russian power puncher Sergey Kovalev, former contenders Cedric Agnew and Cornelius White have struggled to get their careers back on track. Both light heavyweights will return to the drawing board fighting separate bouts in their home base of Houston on Thursday night at the Bayou City Events Center in Houston.

Agnew (27-2, 14 KOs) will take on Kevin Engle (record unknown) in a six-round bout. Agnew, 28, was stopped in the eighth round by Kovalev via body shots last March. He rebounded with a meaningless first round KO over a 25-52-8 journeyman three months later but lost his next fight to Samuel Clarkson (12-3, 9 KOs) in February.

I remember when Agnew called Kovalev "ordinary".

Then Kovalev knocked his ass out with a jab to the liver.

Kovalev took their souls.

And Kovalev brutally knocked him out.

I think Kovalev really wanted to hurt Sillakh.

Cornelius White had already lost to Donovan George then lost to Thomas Williams Jr.

Cedric Agnew had only fought two 12 round fights, one against a shot Yusef Mack who had just been battered by Froch. Now loses to a journeyman.

These bouts did nothing for Kovalev's legacy, only thing I think he can take from them is that he started punching to the body a little more after the Agnew fight.

I hope Kovalev's Russia homecoming fight has a good opponent. He's too old to be wasting his time with poor opposition like White, Agnew, Caparello and to a lesser extent, Mohammedi.

White was 21-1 and on a five fight winning streak when he fought Kovalev in an IBF final eliminator in 2013:

He hasn't won since. Kovalev took his soul.

Kovalev took their souls.

It's more that they were never really that good to begin with.
