    Kovalev has definitely been on a decline since 2016. No one can argue against this, he got knocked out by Ward, Alvarez, and hurt badly by Yarde. But he definitely wasn't completely shot, and still a formidable LHW. Canelo jumping up 2 weight classes and knocking him out is an amazing win. He is p4p #1, you can combine Loma and Crawford's resume and they still wouldn't even get close to what Canelo has achieved. Wow... bravo Canelo, you really dared to be great.

    Nah. That wasn't Kovalev. He looked terrible. He's shot. I'm not biased against Canelo. I didn't think Kov was shot before the fight but his performance was so passive and shitty.

    Dude stfu lol, y'all want to see Canelo lose so badly. Don't get me wrong, I give Canelo no shot against Beterbiev, but if he did win it, y'all would be like CANELO VS BIVOL NEXT, CANELO VS USYK next. Just chill and enjoy the win.

    Fighting a fighter in clear decline is not daring to be great. Canelo was the favorite. More like a marketing trick for the casuals and you guys bought it

    Yeah, jumping up 2 weight classes and fighting the champion at that weight is not daring to be great. Suck a dick you ****ing *****. You just wanted Canelo to lose so badly.
