Thread: Kovalev's next opponents.

After Kovalev beats Agnew this Saturday, who should he fight next? Ideally, he would fight a durable opponent who could give him rounds. But who do you think would fit that bill? Maybe Pascal. Chilemba could also give Kovalev some trouble, with his speed and awkwardness.

Realistically, he has two big options.. Andre Ward and Pascal...

GGG fight is doable too but since GGfraud is going that ottke route, that's out of the question..

And Lmfao @ Chilemba giving kovalev a tough fight.. haha he would get beat so bad to a point of retirement, homeboy would have to go make money as one of the freaks when they start shooting The Hills Have Eyes 4 cuz he looks just like one.

Chilemba aint shit for kovalev man, he a B level fighter.. it's either ward or pascal..

OK, why wouldn't Chilemba give Kovalev a tough fight?

Very much looking forward to this. I'm not up to speed on Kovalev and I'm going to leave it that way so I can watch the fight unbiased. I finally calmed down about the Garcia fight. I had to withdraw a bit as it pissed me off. If Danny has a rematch it will go along way in quelling my angst. Still, I'm stocking up on Beefjerky and ice t sticking with my usual fight OCD planning.I'll probably cook the wife a nice meal to atone for me ignoring her from the moment that fight starts.

I did get a little scolding for swearing at the TV during the Garcia debacle. I just talked to a buddy of mine who has invited me over for the Pac fight. He going to go the ppv route and I supply the pizza.


Anyway back on topic, great to have a solid fight to get into this weekend

Could Agnew pull off the upset? It wouldn't be the first time an unknown fighter pulled off the upset. Remember Buster Douglas and Nobuhiro Ishida?

Anything can happen, I hear you... but tyson barely trained for douglas. At the time, he was having the time of his life in japan fucking japanese whores who loved him long time and even his corner was totally unprepared in the fight.. they had nothing.

Ishida fight was bizarre and there is no explanation for that ..smh I mean kirkland got knocked out by a total feather duster but in his defense, the ref stopped the fight. Its not as if he was hurt.. he just got caught cold and ishida kept following up with punches..

You are right, anything goes inside that ring..

But u know what, Ive seen cbilemba many times and I dint think he's capable of giving kov problems.. he's too soft and ordinary..

The superfight with Adonis or move up a weight.

How do you think he'd do at CW? The division is weak, so he could probably get a belt.

I agree that Ward and Pascal are good fights for him, obviously Stevenson, but how the fuck does GGG get stick for this. He's not a big middleweight, and you expect him to go up over a stone in weight and probably give away nearly 2 stone on the night to a big punching World champion?

I wouldn't mind seeing the Kovalev-Pascal. Other than that, there isn't much at 175 unless some guys move up.

Edit: Let me clarify...there isn't much at 175 that is HBO friendly.

Hopkins

Ward

Pascal.

If Kovalev knocks out Pascal and Chilemba, will he be the P4P hardest puncher in the sport? He'll have knocked out three guys who had never been stopped: Cleverly, Pascal, and Chilemba.

I hope Braehmer wins, so he could fight Kovalev. I shudder to think what would happen in a Kovalev-Maccarinelli fight.

Retard alert. Why isn't Yamanaka fighting Manny Pacquiao or Danny Garcia next? Just continuing the bum tour with you I suppose?
