Comments Thread For: Sergey Kovalev: Chilemba is a Tough Opponent, I Will Be Ready

[TudorMiron]

Can't really blame kov he tried to get in with the LHW lineal champ. This is still a shtt fight he should have offered the fight do Fonfara or Alvarez

Alvarez barely won against Chlemba so this is a good fight. Fonfara is on about the same level as other two guys. Either one is a nice fight where champion will have to work hard to win.

do you cinsider Beiterbiev or Fonfara of importance? Because as of now the only important fighter he's beaten is Hop. No Pascal doesn't count he's been past it.

beterbiev yes but he's with the same management as stevenson so i doubt its in the cards

fonfara no -- chavez jr was a joke too and it was a matter of time. nothing special.

Excuse my English, but WTF. If it's the case, Kovalev vs Stevenson could & can be setup any day in Russia or else, with more money for both on the table;

Exclusivity rights, yeah right...

Are you trying to say that Stevenson would dare to go fight Kovalev in Russia? You would need to point a gun at him/escorting him to russian plane where he would not have a way out That would make a hell of a movie

On the serious note - Chilemba shows some real heart by jumping at this opportunity, one that Ward was actually pressed to take (yet to be convinsed that he would actually fight Kova)

That **** Duva said she had Russian billionaires that could buy haymon 10x over

There are a bunch of rich people in Russia who luv boxing. Is that so hard to understand? Geez, what's with the hate for Duva? She's doing a pretty damn good job if you ask me. Certainly as good as GB or TR, albeit on a smaller scale.

I expected it to be Chilemba. Not a bad fight style wise. Issac is as durable as they come and will give Kovalev rounds, probably even a decision, which is good preparation for Ward.

Alvarez is with main events no? i dont think they want to feed their own fighter to Kovalev...

Fonfara wants big check if the fight happens in USA...Imagine what he would demand if they fight in Russia lol

Alvarez is with GYM, same as Beterbiev and Stevenson...

This fight will make us wish it was a Pascal/Kovalev V3 ...

Are you trying to say that Stevenson would dare to go fight Kovalev in Russia?

Stevenson would go where the money is, and once again Montreal/GYM would be a milk cow for Main Events who obviously can't do **** about promoting ...

Are you trying to say that Stevenson "blablabla", Hey! Why your mama didn't propose a fight in neutral ground Russia, for a unification title match, without HBO & Showtime, if she knew all along HBO wouldn't air that fight. PBC would find a US network like ESPN to air it in north america.
And, instead of saying if "Stevenson would dare", you should ask yourself howcome you too blind to accept Kovalev clan are constantly lying to avoid a fight against Stevenson. Ward fight announcement is just a smoke screen to divert your attention and push Stevenson away from the equation, even if there no greater recognition than becoming the first Undisputed champion in the LHW division.

Do I understand you properly? That's Kovalev who's ducking Stevenson? Do you really think it is so?

Why not the guy who beat Chilemba

[j0zef]

Not a bad fight at all.
