I don't think he's shot - if he was out there not able to throw punches and it felt like he was late or missing on the openings he used to take then I'd agree but that's not at all what I've been seeing.
Kovalev is shot

Kovalev has a far better resume than either Gvozdyk or Beterbiev.Yes yardes resume is trash but hey he was getting alot of hype and he talked himself into the fight.
I agree gvozdyk and beterbiev beat kov but for some reason I think Kov can hang with Bivol. Bivol isnt a huge puncher like beterbiev and gvozdyk and I also believe bivol is a little chinny and can be hurt. Joe smith nailed bivol on the bell that almost put bivol out.
Bivol is the one who can surprise. Bivol and Kovalev are still 1/2 in LHW today and like Kovalev still best.
Bivol will however be the LHW king... Unless he moves down to 168... where he will really dominate.Comment

Kovalev may have the best resume, but Gvozdyk beats him. Kovalev is past his prime.
Bivol is very good fighter, but he doesn`t punch hard. beterbiev punches hard, but I must see him against better opposition. i think Gvozdyk will beat him.Last edited by JakeTheBoxer; 08-25-2019, 05:16 AM.Comment

Not shot , he avenged his L to Alvarez and Just got the W from Yarde , but he’s now in a steep decline , He won because his grit & Experience & Yarde gasses Out , but To me it wasn’t a impressive performance , He looked slower , Older & weaker from the start and when Yarde attacked the body his resistance seemed worse then it’s ever been
But the end is real close The Krusher is gone it’s now Sergey Kovalev , He’s approaching 37 , most likely the weakest strap holder in the division , been taken out 2x the last 2 years almost got taken out against Yarde , and is now just low hanging fruit for a young gun to take his scalp and build their rep & that’s why Canelo wants him because he his name is recognizable and still has cache and he’s probably a Future HOFer but at this point his scalps Value is in Name Value only and not Best or near the best in the Division Value.Comment

Joe Smith Jr has one of the best punches in the world. He's a power puncher, if Bivol can take that shot without going down he's got a good chin.Yes yardes resume is trash but hey he was getting alot of hype and he talked himself into the fight.

Lol he jabbed like he did every other round and Yarde quit after getting hit by it too much. Great knockout.
You remember that boxer who came into a world title fight not sparring and only having fought opponents ranked 40+? Turns out he gassed before a 36 year old man who knows what a 12 round fight is like.Comment

I think Gvozdyk is the best of them but I'll easily put money in bivol over kov. He's too fast and relentless. I'll even pick bivol to ko Kov.Yes yardes resume is trash but hey he was getting alot of hype and he talked himself into the fight.
