blackrican23 Posted August 1, 2014 Share Posted August 1, 2014 A unification fight between WBO light heavyweight champion Sergey Kovalev and IBF/WBA light heavyweight champion Bernard Hopkins is reportedly on for November as long as Kovalev wins his defense against Blake Caparello on Saturday night. Both sides have signed.Fight will be televised by HBO. The IBF exerted pressure on Hopkins to reach a deal by 5 pm or face a purse bid for mandatory challenger.— Chris Mannix (@ChrisMannixSI Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mofo2 Posted August 2, 2014 Share Posted August 2, 2014 Bhop will go for the mandatory defence - he aint that stupid!! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blackrican23 Posted August 2, 2014 Author Share Posted August 2, 2014 stevenson said BHop wanted 75-25 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mofo2 Posted August 3, 2014 Share Posted August 3, 2014 Yeah mate, he will shout that he wanted the fight, but Kovalev wouldnt sign - sensible for Bhop to try and fuck any negotiation up with unreasonable demands, its the slimiest type of duck for me though!

WBF OG Neil_ Posted August 6, 2014 WBF OG Share Posted August 6, 2014 hopkins only chance is if he stinks his way through the first half of the fight and if kovalev has poor stamina, which is yet to be determined. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WBF OG mexfighter Posted August 6, 2014 WBF OG Share Posted August 6, 2014 do you guys really want to see hops or is it that you want to see kovalev destroy him? hops is like mayweather...you watch him because of the other guy. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WBF OG Neil_ Posted August 6, 2014 WBF OG Share Posted August 6, 2014 mayweather jr is interesting to watch. hopkins isnt. hopefully kovalev bashes him Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mofo2 Posted August 6, 2014 Share Posted August 6, 2014 hopkins only chance is if he stinks his way through the first half of the fight and if kovalev has poor stamina, which is yet to be determined. I cannot possibly see Bhop having a hope here, the trouble is I have said that with a number of his last fights.....so I dont know if I would bet against him!!
