People can't stop crying about the rehydration clause, they keep trying to make excuses for Kovalev not getting more advantages it's pathetic!
CANELO WANTED TO FIGHT KOVALEV It's not like Kovalev called Canelo out and told him to come to 175. Maybe Canelo should "challenge" himself by not (a) cheating (b) taking PEDs (c) weight draining an opponent for a change. It's like me challenging AJ to a fight and then complaining that he's too big WTF???
Crying about a rehydration clause when it's happened in other fights when guys have moved up is pathetic!!!
Nah it's classic Clenelo. He's tried to weight drain just about every opponent he has had these last few years. Of course, when tiny, moving-up cotton-candy chin Khan asked for weight restrictions, we know what Canelo said.
Khan got a significant weight restriction don't you think in the form of 155 lb catchweight 5 lbs under the division limit? In comparison, what weight restrictions was Brook able to impose on GGG?
I guess so but they probably don't want to let all the fans down he's earned over the years who admire and champion these kind of things lol
1) Khan is smaller than Brook 2) Brook was heavier than Golovkin 3) Canelo refused a catchweight for the Khan fight. 155 is CANELO'S invented weight. HE wanted that weight. Khan wanted lighter.
I'm curious as to why a few people are defending this. If the Alvarez team insisted on covering this up, which they have until now, then they clearly know it's wrong themselves.
