Comments Thread For: Sergey Kovalev Targets More Gold: I Want Unification Fights

[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Sergey Kovalev made his reputation as the 'Krusher', but on Saturday in a rematch with Eleider Alvarez, the Russian champ regained his light heavyweight title by using his boxing smarts.

The other 175 lb champions are Beterbiev, Gvozdyk, and Bivol.

Bivol is with Eddie Hearn so you can probably forget about Kovalev fighting him.

But Beterbiev and Gvozdyk are with Top Rank. Who Kathy Duva is in essence a sham promoter for. So those fights should be easy to make.

Kov vs Bivol or Beterbiev in spring please

If you check Kovalev is with Top Rank as is Gvozdyk.

Bivol is with Ryabinsky's 'World of boxing', and Beterbiev as of 2018 is with PBC, so it's a bit of a soup.

The only two I see fighting each other in the next year is Bivol and Kovalev. Bivol stays busy and is fighting Smith Jr on 9th March.
Beterbiev will most likely fight bums for the foreseeable future and hold the IBF belt for ransom unless he truly wants to challenge himself.
I can't see Gvozdyk risking his belt for a while.

Bivol v Kovalev late this year might happen, but that depends on Buddy McGirts advice to Kova.

One thing preventing certain belt holders sitting on them are the prospects and contenders coming through.

With chickenson out of the picture it's now possible but with his age and the other champs being pretty good, I doubt he unifies all belts.

I really hate these faux fight fans that use the term bum. You're an ass

He’s got a good shot as long as he listens to McGirt and not become his own worst enemy he can beat Bivol, Beterbiev and maybe Gvozdyk!

Bivol signed with Hearn & DAZN. Co-promotion with World Of Boxing. Bivol also said he's moving down to 168 after the Smith fight.

Beterbiev isn't with PBC anymore. Haymon released him & Beterbiev signed with Top Rank.

It would be interesting to see Kovalev against all those guys but I think he is on his last legs.

The Russians own the light heavyweight division I see, and it appears Arum owns the Russians at that weight. As a *** myself, the irony of that is entirely palpable
