Hopkins to fight Kovalev in November

[patscorpio]

if it wasn't for his last fight i would be saying kovalev would prolly beat him down...but kovalev has never been past 8 rounds and in that fight nearly lost...his last fight against that unknown cat went into the 7th and dude was gasping and bleeding even though he stopped him..made me go ...kovalev has power and youth on his side but what good is it if he can't fight 12 rounds...youre not going to beat bernard hopkins without no damn stamina...but bhop has to be careful...all the caginess and skill in the world doesn't mean you will beat father time.

hopkins is gonna win

If Kovalev comes out fighting and tries to work hard and sets the pace he can really hurt BHop but if he's gonna let Bernard dictate the action he's gonna lose a close decision. Krusher ain't no fukking Shumenov he has legit power and Im worried just a bit for Hopkins health.

Well damn, the pressure is ON now........

i cant believe hopkins is still taking fights and still looking good in his wins and the crazy thing is, he's been boxing professionally the same year i was born

gonna be a tough match for him, but i'm rooting for hopkins.

never rule out bhop, especially after his last fight. as long as he stays out of danger 1-6..picks up a round or two along the way..then picks up the steam late, he has a good shot.

Hop about to be the GOAT of this era.

nearly lost? what fight were you watching?! also he was bleeding cause he got headbutted.

but I do give you the cardio tho...but krusher got crazy power where he can be huffin and puffin and STILL KO a motherfukker.

i was referencing 2 fights...the one that went to 8 was the first fight with the cat who ko'd superman darnell boone..he almost lost that fight...his last fight is the one that went 7 and of course he was winning..just was gassing out lol

oh aight..original post confused me

And Darnell boone is a fukking oddity

Im stillat dude almost beating kovalev and KO Adonis.

BHop has this...Kovalev looked real shaky in those later rounds in his last fight like he was gassed as fukk.
Hopkins is too skilled and too crafty for a dude who has questionable stamina.

Floyd and Manny have no one to blame but themselves

I feel that even if the fight does get made now, it's going to be on some too little too late shyt.

It's funny because I think Kovalev beats but Kovalev is the easier fight for BHop by far. Goes to show why triangle theories don't mean shyt in boxing.

perfect execution of Philly shell right....?

That fight will satisfy the casuals, but I will just be happy with the fact that Floyd won, it won't boost Floyd's legacy if he wins, but it will boost Manny's if he wins, big time. With that said, both of them get the gas face for not giving us our Ali/Frazier and have us looking forward for a Ray Leonard/Hagler instead. Smh.

Yeah I won't front like I wouldn't be excited if it does happen but could you imagine had this happened when nikkas were clamoring for it.
