I think he beats Beterbiev but gets stopped by Gvozdyk and Bivol.
Where Does Kovalev Rank Among Gvozdyk/Bivol/Beterbiev?

He can beat Beterbiev and Gvozdyk if he fights like he did tonight but Bivol wins against all these guys.Comment

Beterbiev will get knocked out. In theory he has the perfect style to beat Kovalev, but he's sloppy, smothers himself, wide open to a counter when he attacks, has questionable stamina. If he doesn't KO Russian Floyd in the first 4-5 rounds he'll get stopped himself later in the fight imo.
Gvozdyk is a 50/50 fight imo that will likely go the distance or get stopped in the championship rounds. Gvozdyk is a little faster and seems to have better chin, but Kovalev is more experienced, punches harder and has a better jab. 50/50 imo.
Bivol is a class above the rest of the champions and would likely stop Kova in the mid rounds imo.Comment
