Comments Thread For: Alvarez Makes Statement, Knocks Sergey Kovalev Out in Seven

[The plunger man]

I think they know how, but for whatever reason the executives are just not interested in siphoning money into boxing events and coverage anymore — they want a couple big PPV fights a year for the money, and some smaller fights like this to appease people who have HBO because they love boxing — they don’t want to lose those subscribers altogether.

They’re doing very little to promote new fighters, up and comers etc., so I don’t see how they’re doing anything but setting themselves up to eventually can HBO boxing or relegate it to 1 or 2 fights a year. In terms of turning things around I don’t think it’s a matter of can’t, though, it’s a matter of won’t. They have decades of being one of the top dogs in boxing, they have all the infrastructure, money, subscribers...

HBO are a faded entity now and only concentrate on the triple ggg canelo fight because it is a huge earner for them.
They can kiss my ass

Clemenza returns to the Etess center tonight , it will be 3rd fight at the Old TRUMP TAJ MAHAL.
Ray Mercer vs Wladamir Klitchko
And the Gigantic upset of the great Hall of Famer Kostya Tszyu upset knockout loss at the hands of Cool Vince Phillips, how many folks remember that stunning upset.
I personally think Alvarez is going to win this fight tonight even though I was the one who voted a draw, 115-113, 116-112, 114-114, how many times have we seen that folks, can I be the prophet and predict a robbery in AC tonight!!!!!! And that’s that

I like Alvarez in this one. Don't sleep on him

Easy work Kovalev. 3rd round KO.


Ward rematch next, if he finally stops ducking and accepts the fight. Kovalev won the first fight easily but boy how I wish he knocked him out

[BoxingIsGreat]

I expect Kovalev to win. Kovalev is the man at light heavy. Hopefully they put on a great show.

War Sergey!

[Urtain]

Alvarez has some skills and power, but didn't face a power puncher before. He's couple of names on the resume but he faced them in their downhill. I consider him a little bit untested, this could be too much of a jump on levels for him. Kovalev by KO.

LOL what ? You don't duck when you retire after absolutely making your point without any doubts... He Destroyed Kovalev fair and square in the 2nd fight.... He took his soul away... and his liver ...

[cork]

Good card. Can't wait for both the co main and main event. Best division in boxing easily.

[man down]
