    :lol: Yes. Marcus Browne is a huge 175 pounder who comes in at as much as 192. Kovalev is coming in 10-12lbs lighter than that these days and that's about the same as or even less than Degale, Ward (when he fought E-Rod) Bute, Jack, Calzaghe used to weigh on fight night down at 168 and many other SMWs do too. Clenelo usually comes in at 178-180 so weight wise they're both really in the SMW range. Kovalev's obviously a lot taller and got a 2'' longer reach, but Clenelo's a tank and is very thick-set and even thicker and more tank-like since he started dining down at the Clenbuteral Cafe

    I don’t like Canelo very much. Absolutely I would give him credit if he wins via fair UD or KO. It would be a huge achievement.

    You got some nerve talking about poor threads lol.

    Just taking a quick glance at your thread history you average about 1 or 2 replies LMAO!!

    My threads usually get 40-80 replies. I'm not bragging because that would be ridiculous, I'm just again exposing your trollish ways. You just argue for the sake of arguing non boxing issues.

    :lol: He would be doing a Pricey vs Teper in a round or two if this was prime Kov. Let's hope he can roll back the clock and summon the ghost of his former self for one night lol

    I don’t care to much for him. That being said I believe he’s lost to a few guys as well but if he stops the krusher convincingly without the help of ref of dr., he’ll get credit for

    No, I wouldn't. He was already PEDing at middleweight. Now he looks even bigger, actually Ward even noticed this and thinks he may have bulked up too much. How is he bulking up this much after already bulking up from the 'I'm not a middleweight' days? How obvious can this fighter make it that he's artificially enhancing his body?

    You can argue from a technical standpoint that even if he was PEDing this would just 'even things out' since he's fighting up a number of divisions and so it would still demo his skill to KO a 175r. But PEDs may actually give him advantages over 175rs who aren't using them, who knows. And in any case, it's not a natural feat so he shouldn't be given credit for some mythology that he's naturally climbed from LMW to LHW due to his ability alone.

    So I'm GGGoon patrol now huh ? ROFL What does that make you ? A CLENClown perhaps??
    As for me giving the Clenbutrol Kid credit?? When he does something to earn it I'll willingly give him credit.
    He has a draw & a win over GGG which no way in hell did he deserve. Her arguably lost to both Lara & Trout. You can say all 4 were Gifts from the NSAC & Vegas officials
    All he has to do is fight Canelo in MSG with no NSAC or Vegas officials allowed in arena. This to be a 100% straight down the line fair fight with the best man getting the win he deserves. lets see who the better man is.
    If that happened & Canelo legitimately won at 160 I'd congratulate him & call him a real champion.
    But sadly that will never happen & we all know why Canelo cannot beat GGG in a fair fight. I'm sure some of you will remember I made the same offer in May/Pac fight & in Margarito/Cotto 2 fight also. Sadly Mayweather & Cotto
    couldnt have a fair fight in either as we all know.
    All I ever want to see in every fight I watch is a fair fight with the legitimate better man getting the win he deserves Isn't that what boxing is all about ??

    It came from his own mouth

    Bye. I'm not quite sure how you've managed to evade it for so long because it's long over due. Don't come back. Ever

    Aside from being an insufferable and provocative little troll who has really been pushing his luck for a while now and who only created that account to troll incessantly and to bait and antagonize others and cause trouble, not too much.
