He said that the Kovalev fight would be easier than the Pavlik one, because Kovalev is very one dimensional. B hop believes that Kovalev would try and him out because that's all he knows to do, and that's what will be his downfall. He also said that his predicitons are usually bang on and they have been for years. I wish B hop the best with his career and I would like to see this fights happening.
He is not wrong about Kovalev trying to knock him out but he is mistaken if he thinks that is all he has to his game. I would be surprised if Hopkins got in a ring with him and even more surprised if he left it without first having had to get off the canvas. Kovalev is much better than Hopkins gives him credit for. Kovalev stops him.
