Who should Sergey Kovalev fight next?

[Rage of Wodan]

Kovalev vs Pascal or Kovalev vs Bute.

I do think Kovalev could reach ATG status. He already has ATG power.
And he can box which people like to pretend that he can't.

Kovalev vs Pascal or Kovalev vs Bute.

You have no idea about the "Quebec cartel"...
Those guys will not fight Kovalev.

I was trying to give them the benefit of the doubt. Considering Pascal said Kovalev is unproven. Maybe he needs to show us?

And Bute got his ass hammered by Froch. I'll never forget that blowout.

that Stevenson, Pascal and Bute are likely to form a kind of Quebec cartel at 175...

Bute is out of the picture. He needs a couple easy fights before he becomes relevant again.

I could see Pascal fighting Kovalev. Pascal has never been afraid of a tough fight. He went to England to fight Froch, fought the best lhw at the time (Dawson) less than a year after moving up to 175, then fought Hopkins twice. You can doubt Pascal's stamina, technique, defense, etc., but he never gave anyone a reason to doubt his heart and desire to fight the best.

Yes, Pascal has the same promoter than Stevenson. But I actually think it doesn't matter. GYM would benefit from a Kovalev-Pascal fight no matter who wins. If Pascal wins, HUGE local fight with Stevenson. If Kovalev wins, a Stevenson-Kovalev fight gets much bigger than it currently is. In the mean time, Stevenson can fight the winner of Hopkins-Shumenov, and we can have a true unified champ at 175 this time next year.

I want to see Stevenson-Kovalev as much as the next guy, but if this plan can get done, it would be even better!

[Jack Napier]

he should go for Pascal, but it's always fun seeing Cloud get beat up even though he deserves no more title shots

Pascal or ward .

Pascal or Ward will do for now, hopefully Stevenson or Hopkins grows a pair in the near future. Boxing fans want to know who the best is at 175.
