Would you give Stevenson much chance against Kovalev? I don't myself but would love to see the fight anyways, there is really nobody else for the Krusher to take on.
I give Stevenson a chance. His southpaw stance might cause Kovalev some problems. And his left hand is pretty wicked. But if I'm putting money down I'm rolling with Kovalev to weather an early storm and smash Stevenson to pieces.
Anything can happen in a fight, but will Stevenson be mentally tough enough to let Kovalev get that close.
You can hit Kovalev, but then you can be hit. It's a big problem.
