Comments Thread For: Kovalev-Mikhalkin, Bivol-Barrera in Works for 3/3 at MSG Theater

who the **** is Miklahkin? bivol-barrera is great though

Agreed, Barrera has kind of ducked Kovalev though, it’s a step up from Shabransky but main events still should’ve found a much better opponent than Mikhalkin. It’s a poor fight, Bivol-Barrera will be good though, I’ll look forward to that.
As long as we get Kovalev-Bivol at the end of this I’m OK with it but who knows if that even happens.

Do you mean Bivol is a step-up from Sharbransky (agree) or that Mikhalkin is a step-up from Sharbransky (disagree)?

Better than Shabranskyy at least

9 KO's

Joe Smith Jr
Marcus Browne

Would have been good opponents, Hope they at least face each other.

Guess Kovalev really wanted that IBO belt :blow:

Just hope that they don't put this up against that Adonis Stevenson vs. Badou Jack, and Eleider Alvarez vs. Oleksandr Gvozdyk.

I just want to see him in with another puncher. When was the last time he did this?

[BM dnobagaV]

Kovalev via 3rd KO.

odd. im not sure bivol is the easy way. great
matchup tho unlike kovalev-random dude.

HBO is allowing too many of these showcase type fights. This Kovalev main event is a joke.

Barrera is a total moron. He turned down a fight against a bigger named opponent to settle for a lesser known, but more risky opponent in Bivol.

If this backfires on him, he'll go down as the biggest idiot in boxing.
