Kovalev will fight Mohammedi in July

[Ron Swanson]

Kovalev/Pascal is a complete waste of time. Kovalev will fight anyone, but the suits likely just want to fleece the masses.

Aside from, inexplicably, HBO - no one wants to see that fight.

It's just that Pascal has more of a name than Gonzalez and it would be easier to market, but clearly it has no merit. I'm not sure Gonzales is ready either and his team would likely want to build him up more. Kovalev needs a name fight, but top names don't want to fight him. Understandable I guess. He is rather terrifying.

Who doesn't want to fight Kovalev?

Stevenson.

But Kovalev killed that fight. No he says she says. He was his mandatory, he asked out of his spot and said the fight could only be done on HBO which means they aren't willing to entertain fair negotiation. Again, Kovalev literally asked out of that fight.

I think he smokes Stevenson if they fight but that doesn't change who said they were eager to go to purse bid and who asked out of the fight.
