    Fighting delahoya? Question to those that is bashing canelo for moving up 2 weight class to fight an old kovalev. How come you ppl bash canelo for moving up 2 weight class to fight a quote shot kovalev but yet you the same ppl I bet praise Pacquiao for doing the same damn thing by moving up two weight class to fight a shot, decline oscar delahoya which oscar had to destroy himself to make 147 pounds?

    ^^^^So what's the difference? Or is it really the same?

    And another question who has Pacquiao beat that was a great fighter in his prime without catchweight?

    How about you restructure that abortion of a paragraph?

    I think many people don't view the DLH victory as that big considering Oscar was drained. However, don't get it twisted. MANY MANY MANY people picked Oscar to win. He fought a close fight with Mayweather right before.

    Except me cause I didn't know who would win between oscar vs Pacquiao because I had a bad feeling of oscar destroying his body to make 147 pounds which he hadn't fought at that weight before the Pacquiao fight in 8 years smh.

    The whole, "Same people saying...." crap. Posters who use this line are typically slow witted morons with nothing of substance to say. Just a false equivalency that dumbasses don't understand...

    You totally misunderstand. Let me help. People bash Canelo because he abuses P.E.Ds. People bash Canelo because he has a history of bribed judges.

    https://thegruelingtruth.com/boxing/history-bad-judging-canelo-alvarez/

    People bash Canelo because of his catch weight nonsense.
    People bash Canelo because he claims to be a warrior, when the above clearly shows he isn’t.

    Now to your point, the cherry picking an older fighter on his way out...
    No wait I was wrong he SHOULD be bashed for that. My bad. Delete everything above and just read: Canelo should be bashed.

    Who has Pacquiao beat that was a great fighter in his prime without catchweight? Better yet when was the last time Pacquiao fought a great fighter in his prime without catchweight?

    A better comparison would be with arguably Pacquiao's best two wins, Barrera and Morales.

    Both Barrera and Morales were at the tail end of their careers, had tasted defeat more than once, and were clearly not at their peak and arguably not in their prime, especially Morales. Pacquiao made a name beating those two and despite their names they were not at their peak.

    Morales having just lost to Zahir Raheem, and Barrera having already been KO by Junior Jones and imo two losses to Morales.

    Kovalev has two losses to Ward and one to Alvarez which he avenged and proved to be superior, plus Canelo is moving up two divisions unlike Pacquiao who actually demaded he fight Morales at SFW.

    What’s up with these threads, lol

    No one is bashing him for fighting Kovalev, most people just do not let you and your slightly deluded comrades write songs of glory for Ginger by giving you all a reality-check.

    1.He’s fighting Kovalev - great.
    2.Is Kovalev anywhere near his best - hell no
    3.Did Ginger use weight to drain, bully or avoid challenges altogether in the past - yep.

    Great fighter, good management but a ridiculous POS regardless and it’ll bite him in the ass one day.

    As usual, theres probably not a fraction of the 'same people' that are doing this as you think there is.

    Youre just taking two similar events and injecting a fictional group of hypocritical people narrative into it.
