[BIGPOPPAPUMP]

Joshua Buatsi has told William Hill that he would wipe out Sergey Kovalev should he be given the opportunity to face the former world light heavyweight champion. Buatsi successfully defended his WBA international light heavyweight title against Marko Calic on Sunday night and feels he is good enough to take on ex-multiple world champion Kovalev, who saw off British boxer Anthony Yarde last year.

Much like was the case with Yarde it’s hard to gauge as he’s fighting way below the level of Kovalev!
Fair bit of hype around Buatsi, I’m not convinced!

Joshua can lose and comeback. What makes you think Wilder can’t? Then I guess we’ll be talking Wilder-Joshua all over again. 😳

Buatsi is a good prospect , no need to rush him too quick.Kovalev is a faded fighter but is still dangerous, let B. have a little more time.

Kovalev went from being one of the most feared fighters across all weight classes to someone that everyone wants a piece of now. No better sign that a fighter's washed up.

I think Yarde would be a toss-up. Both guys are talented but also have flaws that need a lot of work.

I doubt it very much, he looked like a fighter who had never been stunned in a fight

Sorry but even Yarde looked better than this total hypejob on his rise to title contention.

Kovalev is a washed up 40 year old Alchie who has pickled his own liver.

“All british fight”....”another all british fight”.....man I’m glad I left that mess, such a small mentality. When will we see the “empire mentality” go away? It’s been 60+ years now....
