    Kov isn't the same since fighting Ward. Ward took a lot out of Kovalev.

    Alvarez tried it again - firing the left to the body and then coming up top with it. Kovalev wide open to it when he does that so he needs to be careful.

    Alright, just got home. I hear Kovalev is having a hard time. I predicted this.

    On what evidence? Looks like the same Kovalev to me... Oh wait, gotta throw in the BS "Right hand ended his career" **** in case he loses and makes your boys W look worse.

    So see through.

    Alvarez needs to take it to him when Kov takes breathers. Sadly I think Kov has figured Alvarez out.

    Round 1 Kovalev 10-9
    Round 2 Alvarez 10-9
    Round 3 Kovalev 10-9
    Round 4 Kovalev 10-9
    Round 5 Kovalev 10-9
    Round 6 Kovalev 10-9

    Alvarez starting to break down, Kovalev landing in combination now, had him hurt along the ropes slightly, and landed some nasty hooks to the body late.

    Kovalev's round, Alvarez starting to get beat up now. Kovalev's power starting to become a factor now.

    4-2 Kovalev. He's outworking Alvarez. Not sure if Alvarez is saving it for the second half of the fight or what, but he's not winning the fight at this distance.

    Alvarez didn't learn anything from Ward. You might want to go to the body if you want to stay in this.

    Don't think Alvarez will last the distance at this rate.

    4 - 2 Kovalev.

    Alvarez is just looking to shot that jab. Not following up with a straight right or anything else.

    Kovalev when he lands are landing hard punches.
