    ha round 8 is fun, Smello is trying desperately to hang on going all out charge to stop Kov before Kov kos him.

    excellent fun to see ginger suffering at last. Revenge for 3G is coming in seconds.

    Why would they not, Kova was doing the same thing GGG did in the second fight vs Canelo. Nothing but jabs and fighting in retreat mode. Judges tend to favor the more aggressive and skilled fighters who land the more impressive punches.

    Absolutely. It made no sense for either to do other. They both worked out their best odds of winning and went at it. Neither strayed.

    It's like Socrates said at the first Olympics, "The only true wisdom consists in knowing that nobody knows **** about boxing."

    up to round 9 now, no ko from kov yet. He is leaving it late.

    Exactly. Like I said, may not have been fun to watch but anyone who has been in the ring or knows anything about boxing could have worked out the strategy’s from the 2nd round. I had Canelo just ahead before the knockout, but wouldn’t argue with anyone who picked SK. When a fights that close it is a matter of personnel preference. But Canelo was clearly looking for a late finish, and his patience paid off
