Mofo2 Posted June 15, 2013 Share Posted June 15, 2013 Following the collapse yesterday of the Karo Murat fight, unbeaten Russian puncher, Sergey "the krusher" Kovalev has now entered straight into the IBF mandatory position for the 48-year old Bernard Hopkin's title. Described by Freddie Roach as "the one fighter that excites me most right now", the Russian's profile has soared in the last 48-hours, on account of being publicised that he will possibly be fighting Nathan Cleverly for the WBO version of the belt. But last night's textbook 3-round dismantling of respected 21-1 (16ko) Cornelius White, combined with the Murat withdrawal, has seen more lucrative American opportunities come to the fore. Kovalev's victory last night propels him to 21-0 in decent company, with almost 90% of those victories coming by way of knockout. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

blackrican23 Posted June 15, 2013 Share Posted June 15, 2013 Murat was far less dangerous , Hopkins has nothing to prove fighting kovalev. clev vs kolalev will be next Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mofo2 Posted June 15, 2013 Author Share Posted June 15, 2013 If Clev fights him and wins, I might just give him a little credit....but he won't! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
