    A or A- world class, near elite.

    I think Kovalev has very good offensive footwork for a bigger man. As he has developed he has became more conservative and developed a more pro style.
    Watch his earlier fights where he was more dynamic.
    Cleverly & Campillo fights.

    I don't see a lot wrong with his footwork or positioning in fact I think his positioning is very good and its why he is so precise.
    He can be a little bit crude even clumsy at times but crudeness isn't always a bad thing, a lot of the best fighters have a hint of crudeness about them.

            Fair point. Most of us are not boxers, trainers or managers.

            But that being said, fans have the right to their opinions.

              Very skilled, but still less skilled than ANDRE WARD.

                Kovalev? As a fighter he's A level, but his boxing skills lag just slightly behind. Maybe B+. There are exploitable flaws there, but Sergei ain't gonna make it easy for anyone to take advantage of them.

                  Ward's toughest test to date, world class though.

                      Umm, we are fans who spend money and watch these guys fight, why can't we have opinions and rate them?
