Sergey Kovalev vs. Marcus Browne

Good stay busy fight. He needs to fight someone at the top though. The thing is that Kovalev is the top dog of the division. People should be calling him out, but I feel like nobody has.

The elephant in the room here is Adonis Stevenson. Stevenson claims Kovalev "isn't ready to fight him yet", stemming from his back-to-back losses to Ward. That is the biggest load of bullshit ever spewed on the face of the planet. The public has wanted this fight for years, and it's painfully obvious Adonis doesn't want it. I imagine Stevenson will consider Kov "ready" when he's already retired and fat and happy.

Badou Jack "could" be the new bogeyman at 175.

Kovalev is the top dog but Jack might actually be even better at this weight.

That fight left my mind long ago. Stevenson has avoided all challenges for the past 3 years. Jack is finally the first solid fighter he is fighting since he won the title. Stevenson potentially isn’t even top 5 anymore.
