Love Kovalev, but my man needs to retire. He’s a shell of himself now, don’t want to see him get hurt. Dude was a killer in his day.
I thought he was done after canelo
Most likely needs the money
@@venicec3310 I really hope not. If he’s in money trouble who knows when it will end. Somebody, somewhere will use him/his name for peanuts while he takes brain damage as a 40+ year old.
@@vicentee2687 me too. Wtf. This is elderly abuse.. Canelo fight was almost FIVE years ago. Kovalev used to be a scary mofo.
He peaked against Pascal.He was never the same after Canelo.
Kovalev , Roy jones , and Gamboa were some of the most glorious boxers that crumbled with time
Agreed
@@DoctorEduardo I wouldn't have that as an excuse for why Gamboa lost to Bud, but I do agree as a naturally smaller guy, 135 was his limit for sure. I knew when he got rocked by Farenas back in the day as a super featherweight that lightweight would be troublesome, especially with his fighting style.
Roy Jones was light years ahead of those other 2
@@GorillaWithThemGuns off course but kovalev , and Gamboa were guys that in there prime thought they were unbeatable
@@GorillaWithThemGunsAgreed! I wanted to like his comment but Roy Jones is in a league of his own next to those two.
Sad to see Krusher like this now. Still one of my favorite fighters from the 2010s
Krusher shit his pants to fight with Artur Beterbiev at that times 😂
@@user-ut9yh2hi3l I highly doubt that.
@@user-ut9yh2hi3lкогда такое было?
@@user-ut9yh2hi3l Never, they were never on the path to fight each other. Kovalev was trying to get stevenson at the time who was king of 175lbs.
Beterbiev and Kovalev fought in 2008 twice in the amateurs, and Beterbiev were victors on both
Boxing seriously needs to think about putting a mandatory age limit for retirement. Someone has to save these guys from themselves. And maybe that will force these boxers to fight the fights the people want to see earlier in their careers.
Amen to that
what? Ducknelo Alvaroids is banking on these old faded fighters to stick around so he can add those 'big names' to his resume
Then Bernard Hopkins and George Foreman wouldn't have the legacies they have now.
@@TheMendo1234Real
Respect to Kovalev, it's time for him to say goodbye to the ring. He's a legend and guaranteed Hall of Famer! Nothing left to prove...
😂ия не видел он легенда бокса
Yes, I met him in newport beach where he lives. Such a nice guy, I am a huge fan and it is time. he should train other young fighters. he still has much to offer boxing. =)
Kovalev isn't a hall of famer, he's also a woman beater
Yeah he can always just punch women in his retirement.
Andre Ward ruined that boy
Hate to see guys go out like this. Losing to guys they would have destroyed in their prime.
Should of would of could of but didnt do shxt...the crusher was demolished...live to accept that truth and give that man Robin his victory and accept it
💯 Boxing is a young man sport and unfortunately some champs stick around too long
@@jameljohnson4840 Ok....Safir beat an old over the hill boxer that would have ko'd him by a punch that sent him to Venus. Hope those are props enough.
No excuses....then retire
he's broke so he fights for money now
I really thought this man was retired already smh
Hes a beast regardless
Everyone hits the wall 🧱 man. He was good at a time. I saw this mans prime. Nothing is forever. Thanks for the fights champion 🏆.
still a legend, hate to see him go out like this, but what a hell of a career
The dude grossed a 12 million dollar purse fighting Canelo. Why do this shit?
His manager probably robbed him
Spent it on booze and hookers
Наверное просто пропил те деньги ))
@@Naymaneci keep hearing that. Is he that much of an alcoholic?
Because boxing is a way of life. Training camps, flying to other countries, communication, teaching youngsters and sharing experience
Kovalev has nothing to prove, a really great fighter. ❤
Good not great
Sad to watch. Kovalev was a great champion but alcohol and lack of motivation have made him look like a shadow of who he was.
Hes a heavy drinker?
Yes it's been known for years. Even his trainer John Jackson he loves vodka
@@mikimiyazaki He has had serious problems with alcohol for a long time and I'm not saying this from hearsay, I know a person close to him.
He was even removed from a flight after allegedly kissing and throwing cash at a female passenger.
He's not a bad guy but he's made some very bad decisions, partly due to the mental state he's in sometimes.
@@13thHeaven damn. SMFH that sucks, hes taken alot of headshots and been concussed several times throughout the later part of his career. Probably has cte which would make self medicating much more likely aside from any other issues. I remember him losing a step just in the span of 1 fight and it makes alot more sense now.
@@mikimiyazaki I think him losing his dad as a teenager and also killing a man in the ring made him try to numb it out with alcohol
Kovalev is getting hit hard and his punches are ineffective. Retire now and enjoy a few years before dementia sets in.
bro why does everyone punch kovalev in the balls 😭
Retire champ. No regrets. U showed us all.
Сергей, ты герой. Удачного восстановления.
Damn, tragic to see Kovalev loose to someone he would slap around a few years ago.
Very sad to see the Krusher go out like that. He isn’t the same krusher
great comments of respect here for Kovalev people, enough said. Nice to see..
Crazy that Robin doesn't even have a Wikipedia page.
He’s definitely getting one soon if he keeps winning
Kovalev is so washed up. Bro should have retired after the Canelo fight, I'm sure he made good money.
He needs some $$$ all he knows to do is boxing
Canelo made Kovalev fight 10 weeks after fighting 12 grueling rounds with Yarde and made him sign a no rehydration clause. Let’s see Canelo fight Crawford 10 weeks after his fight with Munguia and sign a no re-hydration clause for himself. People who praise Canelo for that fight with Kovalev obviously doesn’t know he beat a dead man walking. Canelo will never subject himself to what Kovalev did to make that money.
@@peb577Kovalev threw that fight with Canelo nobody can convince me otherwise(the KO itself was real). The fact Kovalev said he’d fight Canelo again for free just reinforces that idea
Ковалёв потерял все деньги и ему приходиться драться снова.
@@Odin851why would kovalev willingly get KO’d? you have clearly never stepped in the ring in your life it’s easy to make up conspiracies like that when you’re hiding behind your little phone screen boxing fans like you are insufferable
Kovalev and GGG made boxing so fun for me in the 2010s much respect to a legend
So proud of you bro
Damn that dude has a good chin though, not like Kovalev wasn’t touching him..bro should’ve retired after that dive vs Canelo.
After that CANELO fight he was never the same or maybe even before that he was out of it!
After the andre ward fight he was never the same . Canelo beat an old shell of his self Kovalev. Kovalev in his prime would knock canelo out !!!
Sergey, you are not the same fighter as you were in the pre-Andre Ward fight days!
I remember seeing Kovalev vs Hopkins and feeling sorry for Hopkins because of his age. Now I feel the same for Kovalev. Time gets us all eventually.
Same. This is like 20 percent of prime kovalev right here smh
@@duckyh9712 You think his team or people he knows would advise him to move on to something else. Perhaps he needs the money?
@@e.m.doherty723 I’m sure his team by now must be giving him some serious talk but kovalev himself knows he’s done since he had to do steroids and got caught. Def a money thing
kovalev did his thing for many years. father time always wins, its time
Kovalev needs to retire. He's getting really beat up nowadays
Kovalev was an absolute machine when he was in his prime. His legs were strong, KO power in both hands and a very mean SOB.
“Time catches up with everybody it’s undefeated”
-Rocky
There are fights that ruin fighters. This is when the brain damage after their career happens
Kovalev's career ended the day Andre ward Knocked him out in their rematch
Kovalev hasn’t been the same since he lost twice to Ward he should retire it’s sad at this point
Black trunks a dirty fighter , bro been punching bros balls 😂
Sergey use to say it was hard to make 175, but he is way outsized at 200. That dude is huge compared to him. Cruiserweight and light heavyweight actually needs a weight class between it. 25lbs is a big differential. Should be an 187lb weight class.
Коваль пора отдыхать
It's rough seeing father time catch up to a veteran
Kovalev probably has very big balls, and everyone is jealous of him! that's why they hit him in the balls!!! Even the judge is silent!!!😮😢😂
Сергей все равно внес свое имя в историю бокса! Все эти поражения уже не важны! Все равно он уже навсегда останется чемпионом!
Going to 10 round in this age Kovolev is a warrior in his prime he would of won
He would’ve stopped dude in his prime
This guy would of been a lamb to the slaughter for the prime kovalev this is sad af and horrible to see
Damn he took a beating right here, he looked so sluggish
Cuz he’s old as hell
I remember Kovalev mocking Jean Pascal when he was wobbled from a shot. He’s a mean person. Got no problem seeing him getting his due now. Happy retirement.
kovalev is an absolute legend and was really formidable in his prime
but even then his defense wasn't the best. he was never a defensive savant by any stretch of the imagination.
acutally it was sprobably slightly below average,
but he compensated with very good jabs, solid 1 2s, and enough speed and length to step back out of the way - and various angled punches where he moves his head outta centerline.
but really he never really had a good guard or head movement, so as he got old he had nothing to defend himself.
Very true. Also another very important advantage. His punches were always thrown with minimal wind up, and he ended up reaching the target before the opponent almost always. This also attributed to his kos. The punches were being shot from the chin seemingly effortlessly. He didnt tighten up or push them. Your points in terms of his defense are very accurate imo.
"Its so difficult to say good bye"
Legendary athlete , choosing a young opponent was a mistake
Having two year breaks in between fights is clearly not the best strategy. I am surprised he came back I thought Pulev Jnr would be his final fight but maybe it should have been.
Respect to Kovalev, time to hang up the gloves champ. 🥊🥊
Завязывать надо !Канело всю масть попортил 😂!!
This must have been one of the prelims I fell asleep to. Didn't even know he was fighting. 🤷🏿♂🤷🏿♂
Krusher still around? Get him Adonis Stevenson. Too late for that match up but why not, right? Boxing is a circus nowadays. The has been vs. The cripple 😂
Kovalev would have destroyed this calibre of fighter within 3 rounds at his best.
He was never the same after Andre Ward
@@DoctorEduardoyeah keep telling yourself this pal
@@DoctorEduardo so it was a low blow that had sergay doing the stanky leg ?
And then Andre retired that's why he ain't great. He ducked Beterbiev and Bivol.
@@showtime3314andre ward was 34 when he retired… thats OLD for a boxer.. you want all the black fighters to end up like ali huh?
Didn’t know he was still fighting 🥴
Dude still fighting 😮
he held his own. watched it live.
Never seen the safari dude box but dude nice
CANELO STOLE KOVALEVS SOUL AWAY WITH BRUTAL KNOCK OUT AND NEVER RECOVERED AFTER THAT…
Respect to kov at least he went the distance
После того боя, теперь все будут стараться бить Ковалёву ниже пояса?
Looks like punching women is much easier than beating pro boxers nowadays, right, Sergey?
Sergey should've retired after the canelo loss. Only guy he should step in the ring with now is jake paul
Kovalev had tremendous power! Once that was gone we learned he doesn’t have a chin or good endurance! Andre Ward broke him and he was never the same
Never pictured kovalev looking like this sad to see he needs to retire
Way outta his weight class. Safar was throwing heated boulders at Kovalev. Kovalev sitting there pitty pat playing touch’em games with that animal like it’s a game. He must have thought that it was gonna be a televised sparring session. They fed him to the Lions.. 🤦🏽♂️
Sergey Kovalev = Son of Undertaker
Retire Dude
Desconozco las divisiones de peso , si es posible o no.
Una pelea de Canelo Alvarez Vs Robin Safar ( Solo Opino que me encantaria verlos pelear , no se realmeante si exista alguna posibilidad de pelear en el ring )
This is the future Andre Ward didn't want for himself. Sad to see warriors fight on like this.
End Of Era
Man, I remember when Kovalev looked unbeatable - lucky he didn’t break his arm on that knockdown.
Ward was the beginning of the end for this guy who has been getting banged up since!
We love you krusher stop it please you have nothing to prove well never forget when you were absolutely the best 🤙
A warrior frue and frue 😊
The guys being used like a punching bag since canelo 😂
Kov is a fucking decade past his prime. Why is he even still fighting?
My man Kovalev had not fought in over two years and is now 41 fighting at cruiserweight to a much younger guy. He should have not taker this dangerous fight at his age against a much younger fighter. Please stay retired after this fight Segey.
Safar also hadn't fight for almost 1 and a half years. Klitschko was 41 when AJ beat him no one talked about age then. Yes Kovalev isn't in his prime but come on no reason to downplay Safar's victory.
I was shocked to see Kovalev fighting again. He looks like he has half the punching power and confidence that he used to have.
I’ve commented before that with the exception of Floyd Mayweather, no fighter has been the same after fighting Canelo. He just demoralizes fighters. JC Chavez used to be that way too.
People love giving advice on whether a fighter should go or stay. Let him decide his LIFE. Just enjoy the sport. You only live once.
Totally tell that was a fall guy fight
I heard Robin Safar is an ethnic kurd same like Agit Kabayel. These guys are good Boxers
Сейчас Сергей отдохнет и можно против Опетаи выходить
Hard to watch.. I don't to see him get hit like that
Kovalev shouldn’t have to fight anymore but if he plans to continue he may as well go after Zurdo Ramirez. He’s big but is hardly able to bully his opponents.
The KURDİSH POWERR😻
I wish Kovalev retires before he takes serious damage. He had his time and was a force to be reckoned with . There is no shame in retiring. Everybody retires at a certain point. Do it while you still have your health.
Hope its the last time we see you in the ring champ 🏆 thanks for all the great fights krusher what a great career 👍
Man should’ve retired a while back
One of the deadliest fighters in the world so sad to see him like that
That was hard to see man fr but thats the hurt business still a warrior
Tough to watch I really hope he retires. Too many other boxers as of late who have lost their life in the ring or in the aftermath of a fight. Sergey is a Legend and will be a Hall of Famer but what else is there to prove? If money is the issue he needs to try to get a job as a boxing commentator. I'm sure the boxing media would love to have him.
Not the same Kovalev who dropped ward 10 times or Fought Canelo in his prime.
SOG softened Krusher belly and took the starch out of him
I don't understand how the Krusher has fallen this far. But alcohol and lack of discipline will end your time at the elite level sooner or later, I guess.
Prime Krusher beat up an old Hopkins, what goes around comes back around.
Time to move on for Kovalev. He should help the new generation with this incredible sport like other greats have. He can prove that. Thanks Champ.
Not a big fan of the krusher but man in his prime he was a beast, imagine what he would of done to this dude in it was 2013 2014…
FROM DETROIT I RESPECT KOVALEV HE NEVER RAN FROM ANY OF THE BLACK FIGHTERS HE NEVER RAN FROM NO SMOKE IT HURTS TO SEE HIM GO DOWN ESPECIALLY KNOWING HE FOUGHT WARD WHO WAS THE FLOYYD OF HIS DIVISION!! Shout outs too SAFAR for winning
Did Floyd ever win a match by punching a guy repeatedly in the nutsack?
Felt bad for the crusher!!
Much respect for Krusher and his stellar career, but Father Time remains undefeated. Opponents like this would have been taken out within 5 rounds in Kovalev’s prime.
