Does Sergey Kovalev belong in top 10 Light Heavy of all time?

[Squ□redCircle34]

Fûçk no, he’s in the top 15 or top 20 though!

[kidbazooka]

Closet Canelo agenda. Make Kovalev out to be better than he is to make Canelos victory over Kovalev out to be better than it was. Go away twerp.

Kov was a pretty good fighter but not too ten.

No that’s Floyd fanboys for you now run along.

Not even close. At his best he was a very good fighter however. If he would've gotten the nod in the first Ward fight he would've been P4P #1.

[GhostofDempsey]

Is this a joke? Not a chance. No one from the last decade sniffs the top ten.

[just the facts]

Every poster in this thread says no except one agenda driven idiot..............

[joseph5620]

The division has had some great champions over the years, if not we’re does he rank?

Not even close.

[boliodogs]

In my opinion he is not one of the 10 best light heavyweights in history and neither is Ward or Canelo. In his prime he was one of the better light heavyweight champions in history but not one of the ten best light heavyweights in history.

[Rick Taylor]

would you rank him over any of these guys?? and if so why??

Archie Moore
Roy Jones
Ezzard Charles
Sam Langford
Micheal Spinks
Jimmy Bivens
Tommy Loughran
Billy Conn
Bob Foster
Maxie Rosenbloom

i think you got jones a little bit to high on that list 😄

Won the Belt 3 times, should have gotten the nod vs Ward 1. That probably puts him at p4p 1 during that stretch. I think he is close to top 10 LHW all time. I keep saying this, but he has had a much better career than GGG overall. He is a solid B+/A- type of a guy in his prime as he showed vs Ward the first time.

He is certainly better than anyone minus Jones and Ward in the last 20 years. You have Jones and Ward, followed by Tarver, and Hopkins? I think Kova is better than those two and beats Hopkins at LHW al the time, bad match-up for Hopkins because of Kova's speed.
