Is Sergei Kovalev an unstable sociopath?

[Dean_Razorback]

yes, he is, and we love him for that

[LoadedWraps]

Kovalev is a pure savage, and I love it. He might be an unstable sociopath but he has an outlet for it (boxing). If he were to have a profession in an office setting (for example) it would be a problem. Being a cold hearted, blood lusting, savage is an advantageous trait to possess as a professional boxer. Kovalev is a born fearless warrior.

Wasn't there a video of a reporter mentioning the deceased name and Kovalev turned to his interpreter and they both started laughing??

[El-blanco]

I don't think he is but he definitely has no patience for people like pascal. He's disgusted by the nerve of pascal to say the things he did and now he wants to punish him. Just because he killed someone doesn't mean he's going to let some guy he destroyed talk **** about him.

Now you're just making **** up.

Better watch what you say before Kovalev shows up outside your house in a full Adidas tracksuit and 8oz gloves.

I've seen him twice in person and he seemed like a pretty normal guy honestly.

Russians are generally tactless, cold and lack empathy. I've never met a Russian who was charming or sociable. Chinese people are known for their cruelty too.

Kovalev once had a boxing match with a guy who later died from his injuries.

This has happened before in boxing, it sadly does occur, at other times fighters sustain life changing injuries or brain damage.

Ordinarily in these situations the other fighter is severely impacted mentally by the tragedy too.

People who know nigel benn know he is deeply wounded by what happened to Gerald Mclellan and it haunts him to this day and will continue to do so. This is usually what happens.

On the other hand you have Sergei Kovalev, a guy who has been involved in a "death fight" who walks around grinning, thinking it highly amusing to talk about opponents dying, or going to the hospital, or being seriously injured by him, with no signs of remorse or any taste whatsoever about what happened.

This is deeply concerning to me that we have a high profile fighter in the sport who is that devoid of compassion. Kovalev, to me is the sort of person who could go Edwin Valero at any moment, and we find out he beat his girlfriend or kids to death or something like that.

At the very least the sanctioning bodies need to start putting some serious consequences on him for the trash statements he keeps coming out with. If he was a british fighter the BBOC would have given him a lengthy ban by now and he'd have been heavily fined as well.

But he just seems to get away with it, the guy is seriously lacking in class

People who freely volunteer their effort, time, and life to an occupation where you are paid to punch people in the face, as well as receive punishment in return, cannot be expected to be the most psychologically stable lot, right? Or do people here think that's normal?

Kovalev probably does think about the man he killed. However Russia is a very unapologetically masculine country. And Kovalev is simply the product of his environment. The cream of the crop.

This. Any of you feel free to show us where he has said anything inappropriate or cold about the opponent who died. You are all just speculating on how he feels about the death.
