Fight Credential
Stamina
Formerly known as "The Executioner," Hopkins' recent turn to his new character, "The Alien," has proved apropos, considering we may never see another athlete (forget boxer) like him. It's hard to put into context the kind of shape Hopkins is in at age 49. He has frankly yet to really look "old" in any of his fights and has fought 12 full rounds in 17 of his last 19 fights. While Kovalev, 31, appears to be in great shape, he has yet to go past eight rounds as a pro.
Advantage: Hopkins
