Kovalev doninated. He's still a very basic fighter who hasn't gone up against someone that will fight him back.
With that said he's still the best at 175.
I won't say that until he beats Stevenson -
nothing last forever.
Still one of the best to lace a pair up -

Easy to say when you ain't in front of him
People are so quick to say these dudes ain't fighting anybody but majority fighters don't have it all
A fighter can go at him and they have, but then you leave yourself open
He showed tonight he ain't one dimensional, he outboxed Hop -
@Wall I don't think he wants it with Kovalev. Stevenson is pretty good on his feet but he doesn't have that great of skill either.

Stop it ? lol
-
Btw I hope Stevenson knocks Kovalev head off but it won't take away from how good of a fighter he is, dude can go
He got a lil rhythm in there, bouncing around on his toes, winding up punches, lil cute feints
He legit -
Dammn! I picked Hopkins to win because of Kovalev style but tonight reminded me of Ali Vs Holmes, where Ali barely fired anything back. How many punches did Hopkins throw? And Stevenson would beat Hopkins. Hopkins doesn't stylistically do well against boxers and I guess we figured that out tonight, since Kovalev actually boxed him, instead of tried to brawl. Can't take nothing away from Kovalev. Stevenson Vs Kovalev should be interesting though. It's a 50/50 fight and Stevenson controls distance really well, is a southpaw and has power in both hands. I guess that would be next year, after Stevenson vs Pascal maybe.

Roy was the only one giving b hop props.
Roy knew what time it was -
Father time caught bhop amd kovalev did what he had to do and destroyed bernard. Kovalev has a claim at the top of his division and its up to stevenson to give fans the best possible fight.
If ward steps up he better have a hell of a game plan to jump 2 divisions. (stevenson shouldnt let this ? get this fight)
lampley made me want bernard to win but ? some of the salty comments in here made me glad kovalev won.
-
And that's saying a lot cuz Roy don't really like Bernard -
If Roy retired after beating Ruiz, he would be ranked higher than Bhop today. I think, Hopkins stayed boxing for such a long time because Roy Jones Jr was that dude back in the day. Everyone was talking about Jones Jr. He was on P4P lists along with Toney, while Hopkins was in the shadows, not talked about much. Hopkins felt left out, so he stayed in the game and stayed relevant, while Jones Jr got knocked out by Johnson, Tarver and several others.

It's hard to like someone who acts like a ? . Hopkins felt like he was entitled to a bigger piece of the pie against Roy Jones Jr when they both were in the prime for a rematch. Jones Jr said no, I beat that ass once, so I get the bigger piece, 70-30. Hopkins walked away

I cant give someone too much praise when they have faced no resistance or adversity. Until then he's a good solid fighter.
He did some things well and he tacked on rounds easy because Bernard wouldn't throw.

Did he dominate a 49 year old Hopkins? Yes. But the problem is is that you'll suck anyone's ? , nh, that opposes B-Hop. Lil cute feints? Foh. -

Bernard couldn't throw
It's not that he didn't want to, the ? hits ? hard
winning or losing to Stevenson won't prove anything, he's really good no matter the outcome -
Yeah, we'll just act like Danny Green never knocked Roy out. Carry on.
