    I don't agree with the resume comparison.

    Kovalev has beaten much better fighters than Golovkin has.

    Kovalev has shown more, against better opponents..... he is clearly ahead of Golovkin.

      I see Canelo timing Khans right hand the same way Garcia did..**** lights out.

      Its refreshing to read Breadmans boxing logic and his assessment of Khan is pretty much in line with mine about his footwork..he falls outta position so easy. Hes gonna trip himself so much against a guy like Canelo...i cant hwlp but point to theie opposition level as the indicator of the result on may 7.

        Style and form theyre comparable...

        ...but with style, form, AND MOST IMPORTANTLY OPPOSITION LEVEL which is how fighters shud be rated and bugs me out when ppl dont include that last part when it comes to rating fighters than GGG has some way to go to be dead even with Kovalev..

        Style form AND opposition level

          Finally, someone who knows how to read a resume

          Unlike most of those who, at least this guy doesn't buy into this asinine narrative any top fighter in the world is a bum.

            This is a "secret" that most fighters are fighting a division or two below their natural weight classes? I thought everybody knew this by now. Canelo, Chavez Jr., Ward are obvious ones that are prime examples of doing this.

              i rate pascal higher than adonis because atleast jean had the balls to fight him..twice!

              if kova said all that racist **** about me, id jump in to fight him. win or lose. kova is a tremendous fighter but he seems like a douchebag

                Bread's columns are usually good, and this was no exception.

                I also like his comments that HBO should grill Kovalev on racism jokes to see what he says. It's fair and necessary at the same time.
