In any event, it's a fight that won't ever happen because of the HBO/Showtime feud.
How offensive! Comparing kovalev to cloud and pascal is a slap to his face. Pascal is just a one dimensional, ambush fighter with shit stamina while cloud has a one track mind and cant make adjusments to save his ass. Cloud is such a shitty boxer .

Kovalev has dimensions to his game bro . He can box a little, has dangerous power, and has a consistent workrate. That sounds like trouble for hopkins.
