Kovalev next move?

[Nameless]

Kovalev is going to enforce his immediate rematch clause with Alvarez.

Best option for him at his age. He wants to do a De Gale and win the immediate rematch.

Totally agree; Show that he can beat the guy, that the first lost ain't representative of what he can do, and if he wins, he could try that fight we all wanted to see against Stevenson and finally ride the sunset.

Yea I think it'll be competitive, he was winning the 1st until getting short circuited. Let's hope he's not gun shy.

Kovalev is near the end now. A rematch, maybe chase a fight with Stevenson, then retire. It has been an unfortunate situation with cheating judges and a cheating Ward and it no doubt left a heavy imprint on his mind. He tried to rebuild, got sloppy, got KO'ed. Simple as that. A couple more and then out. He's old enough and his stamina is not going to improve now.

I like the move. Kovalev is about done and without winning a rematch, he won’t get anywhere else. I think he can win if he gets his mind right. He may not be able to though.

Alvarez will hold the psychological advantage, Kov will need to correct his mistakes and improve his conditioning.

Reality in boxing is that most rematches end with the same result only quicker. So Kov has a massive physical and psychological mountain to climb.

Agree, but history doesn't always repeat.
