Little background on the shirt for anyone thinking this was something Kovalev had made or used his kid to advertise. The shirt itself is made for kids by a company named Japan Rags. At the bottom of the shirt it says welcome to new york.
Japan Rags Bays White "Boxing Monkey" Short Sleeve T-shirt
It appears his only child is the one that was born just last year in October and just over 6 months old. The body for the shirt appears to an old rocky poster (by the design of the belt and the velcro on the parring gloves) maybe which would make the monkey white. That's probably something the kid chose to wear when he was going to meet kovalev or to an event where he would meet boxers..
They want your @$$ beat because upsets make news. News brings about excitement, excitement brings about ratings. The objective is to bring you up to the tower and tear your @$$ down. And if you don't believe that, you're crazy.

Thanks for adding some actual facts and perspective to something I honestly think is blown out of proportion. The body is clearly Stallone, initially I thought it was Adonis with chimpanzee head added. I get it was an 'ignorant' throw away statement by a guy who hardly speaks the language from a completely different culture and who is in the business of knocking people unconscious. We are quickly becoming a limp dick PC society where no words need be spoken to write a man completely off and for us to proclaim to know his soul.
