Beterbiev will beat him after 2 more years of seasoning. No doubt in my mind. Beterbiev hits harder than Kovalev and is a tougher fighter.Ian1973 wrote:Stoppage.

Re: Montreal Card
He wouldn't get to Ward. Defensively Ward is one of the best out there. Wouldn't be much of a spectacle, but I'd take Ward to beat him on points.Ian1973 wrote:forcefraser wrote:Certainly not Stephenson.

He has too much power for Ward IMO. Can't see the fight happening anyway to be honest.
Re: Montreal Card
Great fight.
I really don't have a problem with that early stoppage. Was it early? Sure. But I'm 99.5% sure that Pascal was just going to sit on that corner some more and take more dangerous shots. The ref saved him some brain cells.

IMO - and that's all it is - Kovalev is a different level altogether to Beterbiev. (and before you say it I'm talking about NOW as a pro not in the amateurs).

Yes Good stoppage. While Kovy was on the canvas after a slip, we could se Pascal with no legsIan1973 wrote:Cloutov wrote:What a bad stoppage
It was a good stoppage. Do you hate Pascal or something? lol. Any more and you're risking serious damage.

Re: Montreal Card
What an awesome fight. Good stoppage too. I like Pascal and I didn't want to see him hurt, but he was done. He doesn't deserve a rematch. Winning a round or two doesn't warrant that.

Re: Montreal Card
Kovalev has a great left hand , the jab and left hook are scary powerful . Very fluid when moving forward .
Pascal took a lot of damage this fight - I'd tell him to retire .
Good scrap .

I disagree especially at light heavy. Ward will have to take on a bigger man with superb ring craft who hits like a hammer. He'd have a better chance if Kovalev moved down and was weight drained but at light heavy, I can't see Ward winning.

Re: Montreal Card
A mention for Pascal, what a tough, hard guy. Respect. I'd like to see him fight Stevenson.
Re: Montreal Card
I'd love to see Ward v Kovalev now.
Skill goes to Ward but Kovalev is unquestionably one of the biggest punchers in the sport today and his boxing ability isn't too shabby, it almost seems like every shot he throws has power on it.

Re: Montreal Card
I think that we will see Kovalev vs Beterbiev really soon, because there is not too many people left in the division who have even slim chances of beating Kovalev.Ian1973 wrote:Baby Face Finster wrote:Beterbiev will beat him after 2 more years of seasoning.

Stevenson will have to fight or vacate. Kovalev is his mandatory now.

I wouldn't mind seeing anyone v Ward NOW. Is he still an active fighter or has he retired?

Stevenson has a chance against anyone if he lands that left hand but if Kovalev avoids that he beats Stevenson without much trouble.
Re: Montreal Card
The ref stopped the fight with one sec left in the round lol Might as well should of let the round end and have the corner do a RTD.

like adonis only has 1 punch. you do realise that adonis is more athletic and equaly skilled and equaly strong as kovalev?

Re: Montreal Card
Hopkins went 12 with Kovalev. It's all opinion, but for me Ward is a brilliant fighter with a style that would be all wrong for Kovalev. Unlikely to happen anyway.Baby Face Finster wrote:forcefraser wrote:He wouldn't get to Ward. Defensively Ward is one of the best out there.

You got to be kidding. Ward will get destroyed. He has nothing to keep Kovalev off of him.
Stephenson has a punchers chance, but I'd see Kovalev stopping him very early.

I think that tonight's Pascal would have beaten Stevenson, I think they should fight next and winner gets Kovalev.
