Thoughts on tonight's card? Anyone see Mikhyalenko fight before? My friend grew up with Karim and his brother and Mayfield's a local fighter so naturally I always root for him, but he does have his limitations.
In a perfect world, the telecast would come on and Jim Lampley would announce "Jean Pascal has had to pull-out with a last minute injury. We have a late replacement to fight Kovalev.... Adrien Broner! Enjoy, folks!"
more of a threat. as in, "this is the most awful opponent possible, be happy with option B, no matter who it is"
Kovalev could have easily finished him in the 5th. This was even more one-sided than the first one. Anti climactic. One of the most pointless rematches of all time.
That was fuckin hilarious! Stevenson, the fake tough guy tries to act like he wants to fight right there. Kov just smoothly gives him the finger and walks away. Kov is the best personality in boxing.
I would prefer Kov vs Stevenson over the Ward fight. Sucks that it won't happen until next year at least.
