    Comments Thread For: Kovalev Went From $5K Purse to $1Million-Plus In 2 Years

    NEW YORK – Doubters question whether Sergey Kovalev has been properly prepared in his first 26 professional fights for the challenge he’ll encounter Saturday night at Boardwalk Hall in Atlantic City.

    Kovalev even admits we’ll have to wait until after he boxes Bernard Hopkins to truly know. One thing is clear, though. Kovalev (25-0-1, 23 KOs) genuinely appreciates what is by far the most important opportunity of his five-year pro career – a light heavyweight championship unification fight against the legendary Hopkins (55-6-2, 32 KOs, 2 NC).

      It's good that Kathy Duva and Egis Klimas gave Sergey Kovalev a chance to shine.

      There are probably many other potentially very good boxers who never have a chance to prove themselves.

              Amazing, he kept fighting and impressing working his way to a big payday!
              He should have complained how other fighters get more and stopped fighting, sued his promoter.

                And Mayweather got paid $30+ mil to clinch and have the referee break up the action every time Maidana got close all night long lol...

                Only when you have fans...

                  I agree.... And it's very possible that Sergio Martinez would have went undiscovered had it not been for Lou Dibella as well! Im glad for kova, but it will not stop him from getting schooled saturday night!

                    I cannot figure out how any promoter could look past him. It makes no sense to me. It makes you wonder how many other fighters like him are out there lurking in the background, with no financial means to even get fights.
