During the day he managed to complete the Russian equivalent of a master’s degree in physical education. But at night, he did the opposite of what he studied, disregarding his health in order to temporarily forget the Ward fights. “I didn’t have good emotions,” he says.
Sometimes, he’d just drive, hopping into his 1996 Mercedes S-Class, his baby, the car he’d spent $100,000 to upgrade, even affixing a “Krusher” sticker to the back window. One afternoon, he drove into the countryside, 100 kilometers (roughly 62 miles) from his hometown. Kovalev sped along a two-lane highway and did not notice a car heading in the opposite direction attempting to pass another car in Kovalev’s lane. Well, he did notice, just far too late. He jerked the steering wheel to the right as hard as he could, yanking the Mercedes off the road and into a forest of birch trees. Kovalev estimates he was driving 140 kilometers an hour, the equivalent of about 87 mph, and he says that from the moment he slammed on his brakes, the car skidded through the forest for 100 meters before it stopped."

Yes I rooted for Shabranskyy to upset that racist! he going to keep fighting no names so that HBO can tell you they are delivering world championship fights, but anyone that follows the division already knew this was a mismatch.Last edited by 1hourRun; 11-26-2017, 04:07 AM.

I'm sure he was laughing at the post fight interview. Kovalev looked good...he was relaxed and focused. Nice to hear he seems to be willing to fight anyone too. The division would be even more interesting if ward didn't call it a day.
