    I noticed you are from San Jose?? Me too, Karl st. Story & king used to be my stomping grounds.

    Take it easy. And if you can, share a link about Duva & pennies.

    Hey we're in west san jose , how you doing? And
    Here is the link from a polish site


    Promoter is a bad Pole and walked to the proposed fight with Sergei Kovalev. - Immediately after the fight with Stevenson camp Fonfary he said that Andrew should fight with Kovalev. It would be a correspondence duel between Adonis and Sergei. I immediately called the Fonfary and said it was a great idea and that we have already clinched a date in August. He said that right away this fight will not take what I said, I understand, is a reasonable decision. And he added that he would fight if cash will agree. You can not defy someone first and then talk about money. It does not work that way - said an American promoter - said in an interview with Bokser.org Duvie service.



    "Mrs. Kathy Duva, in response to your interview www.bokser.org ... I offered the fight with Kovalev, but I will not fight again for the dollar, as it did in 2011 when he paid me a lady funny money. Times are changing. I am now more expensive. If the money will agree, I will fight anywhere and anyone "- wrote on his profile Fonfara enclosing a photo of a check drawn on ... one dollar.



    Fonfora made a lot of money in his fight vs stevenson should he not be paid accordingly? If the offer was a fair one would he have drained himself to fight Chaves jr instead of a title shot? Fonfora is a good fighter and has alot more value than duva thinks.

      he asked to fight on the adamek undercard and duva let him as a favour. his "payment" actually came in the form of exposure; it was an investment for him - hence why he went through with the fight. i don't blame him for trying to get paid in a potential kovalev clash, but he wasn't ripped off by duva

        easy work for KOvalev...
        fonfara is only good going against similar level of opposition, where his physical traits shine.
        one dimensional, not enough skills to give a good fight for kovalev

          Agnew Made 200k vs kov and that was after kov gave him some of his own purse how do you know they even offered fonfara that much. Only 400k? Lol how much did fonfora make vs stevenson. So your problem is that haymon is overpaying fighters, would you rather the fighters get underpaid? That sounds cool

            Why in the flying **** are the votes this close?

            Once again, people sickly underrate Kovalev, jesus christ he made Cleverly with confidence look like a piece of ****. Imagine Fonfara? The stiff idiot eats shots the whole fight.

              completely different classes of fighter. fonfara doesn't have the craft or the fluidity to get out of the way of the bombs. he's a basic, upright, european fighter.


              he got knocked out by a journeyman named derrick findley, who did his best work at middlweight.

                Maybe this Beterbiev will be the real challenge for Kovalev.


                the most important fight in boxing is kovalev vs ward at 175 lbs.

                  The Findley loss when he was still young and growing. He moved up two weight classes since so it's kind of a non-factor.

                  His chin is proven. It's just that the repeated shots Kovalev lands would have him in trouble if they fought.

                  Kovalev fight would be more of a prolonged beating than a blast him out affair.

                    fonfara had his head snapped back hundreds of times last night, if clev had power he would of been in trouble.

                    fonfara is only competing at this level because of his heart and chin. nothing else.

                    he get's absolutely destroyed by kovalev, i honestly think it would be a career ender for fonfara, he would take too much punishment and it would be an extremely bloody and nasty beat down on fonfara, mainly due to his heart and chin.

                      I think Fonfara is tailor made for Kovalev. He's just too easy to hit.

                      Fonfara would look like the Elephant Man after the fight.
