Comments Thread For: Kovalev Wants Five More Fights, To Become Undisputed Champ

[MDPopescu]

Once he gets a taste of that Canelo money, this will go down to 2.

In case he gets that Cenelo money, he will retire...

[mlac]

As long as he fights beterbiev and bivol i dont care who the other 3 are.

the beterbiev fight MUST happen.

Kovalev talking about his future as an ex-fighter already?

Hmmm...

I'm almost tempted to place some Euro on Yarde to knock him out.

[_Rexy_]

I can see it if he sticks to not drinking and listening to his trainer. He’s rated this high by experts for a reason and he should be 1-1 with the ex #1 p4per future HOFamer Andre Ward.

Agreed. But age is age. He really surprised me with McGirt last fight, and I have him beating Yarde. I just don't see him being the one to unify 175 anymore.

Yo everybody.
Like I stated before Kovalev has too much to lose. Maybe about 20 million big ones.
Yarde is dangerous, don't underestimate him. Kovalev will win.And I am anti-russian.
There's no way Krusher will be undisputed. Actually I think Canelo would beat him.

you vastly overrate clenelo. kovalev kills him! kovalev is skilled has the height reach and power advantage. clenelo won't be able to get pass kovalev's awesome jab!

And Eleirder is no JOKE.

Alvarez would give anyone problems...I always knew he could box but didn't realize how strong he was/looked in there against Kov...he has some good wins on his resume as well, and I wouldn't be surprised if he is closer to the top 3 at LHW than towards the bottom of the top 10.

Simply put I don't think Bivol or the Nail could outbox Alvarez like Kov did...and Beterbiev would have been a different type of fight...but as far as boxing goes Alvarez may be the 2nd best pure boxer...behind Kov...for Kov to outbox him that clearly shows how talented he is imo...much more than just a big puncher.

I would tend to agree that Kov would be too much for Canelo...however the only caveat is that I don't think Canelo and his team would want/take that fight unless they see something in Kov that they can exploit...or where at the very least they feel very confident that Canelo won't get blown out.

Canelo can fight anyone he wants...and Kov would appear to be a strange decision...seems high risk and for not much reward ...perhaps there will be weight restrictions etc on the fight for Kov.

Canelo’s got your retirement fund waiting for you in November. Just don’t slip up tonight.

Spot on. I am amazed how people now think that Yarde is more dangerous or skilled than E. Alvarez. lol.

Kovalev did outbox him in both fights but Alvarez IS a monster who would give Bivol, Beterbiev and Gvozdyk A LOT of trouble and likely beats 2 out of 3 of them.

Thanks man...and it's boxing, so who knows, Yarde could land a good shot on Kov...but imo that is his only chance...I don't think Yarde does anything better than Alvarez.

Iirc I felt the first fight was fairly close before the KO from Alvarez...I think I had Kov winning but it was pretty tight imo...I could kind of feel the tension, and I at least felt like a big shot could have come from Alvarez before he landed it.

I think that fight was a little bit of a wake up call to Kov to get him back to the basics and get his head right...we will see shortly if he keeps that mentality going forward...if the Kov from the 2nd fight shows up this is a quick schooling followed by a KO in my humble opinion.
