“Yes, there was an offer from Alvarez. It was “fat,” they came with him three weeks before the fight with Yard. And what would I look like if they lured me with such a piece, and I ran? How would I look fellow countrymen in the eyes? ”TASS quotes Kovalev.
The next fight Kovalev will hold with the Briton Anthony Yard, which will be held August 24 in Chelyabinsk.
Earlier it was reported that Kovalev and Alvarez could meet in November.
