Wow. He has balls.

So he isn't gonna blame any of his trainers this time?

[richardt]

I just dont see anything but the same result.

Despite being a de****able, arrogant racist when he was winning and on top of the world, you gotta give Kov credit, he is and has always been eager and ready to fight anyone. That’s a quality that’s hard to find in fighters these days.

Hes no longer "The Krusher" hes just Kovalev now. That being said hes still top 3 light heavy. If wants to stay I highly suggest he not only improve his defense but also hire a legit strength & conditioning coach. Hes been gassing way too early and when hes outta gas theres no 2nd wind hes REALLY outta gas.

Not surprised Kovalev exercised his rematch clause. I think he still has enough left in him to beat Alvarez.

[SUBZER0ED]

Kovalev is showing that he's a true fighter, not throwing in the towel even after a beat down. No excuses, just press on.

Kov is gonna get clubbed again unfortunately. He was winning the fight but that 7th round was brutal and possibly career altering for anybody to go through, don't think he'll be the same.

Kovalev has been exposed since the last Ward fight, just go to the body early again and Kovalev will be out of gas in the mid rounds and open for the KO punch
