Has Kov ever even been floored?
Blake Caparello and Gennady Golovkin did it... And the ropes probably kept him up during his second bout against Ward. He was decked (at least twice) and stopped as an amateur also.
Kovalev's glove touched down vs Caparello because Caparello stood on his foot.
Kovalev has never faught Golovkin & nonody wants to hear about ams.
The ropes didn't keep him up vs Ward, he was leaning forward, not backwards, when recieving a combo of low-blows.
He has however been down vs Boone which i forgot about.

You asked a question and I respectfully supplied a factually-correct answer.
If you wanted to exclude certain events from being considered, due to your desire to ensure that people could only supply a response that was restricted to adhering to your preferred narrative, then you should have framed your question accordingly!

In the meantime though, you’re welcome!
Factually correct? You replied with a sparring rumour

You get a dunce hat today, Fergus
The rumour was corroborated. Everything else I wrote was factually-correct and can easily be verified. Your insults cannot undermine that fact.
That being said, I don't consider Kovalev as being "chinny". He can take a decent amount of punishment, at least until he runs out of gas, so it seems we agree on something.

Kovalev has pretty sturdy beard.
On the other hand it seems hes balls are quite brittle. He will never be able to beat true masters of the sweet science if he can't find a way to fix that issue
He already beat a boxing master... so that's not an issue for him... His biggest issue is the corruption in Boxing -- and waiting so many years to get done what Mike Tyson got done in a year or 2 -- because Mike was pretty much in control of who and when he fought, or at least his people were while Jimmy Jacobs was still alive. The people you have on your team make a Hell of a difference -- and Kovalev had back stabbers like Jackson.
agree with enlightened one . and how could ppl really not know kov been dropped? also watch the first pascal fight and around the 5th or 6th hes doubled up with a body shot only that pascal couldnt follow up because he struggles with energy..cant believe how that one gets ignored.
p4p fighter but ppl never shouldve thought he was unbeatable unless they ignored that type of stuff plus defesive openings and then obvious gassing against chilemba and admitting to gassing vs boon and in amateur 4 rounders.got the feeling some ppl didnt like seeing it so put it out of mind,

I didn't remember it being a body shot that hurt him, but I did recall Pascal briefly hurting him. Those were the rounds Pascal won against him.
