    Possibly he is a lhw David Price now. No stamina, no chin.

    Alvarez KTFO Kovalev in 7 rounds dude.

    And Yarde had him out on his feet. In most places that fight would have been stopped and the Canelo fight would not even have happened.

    This line of reasoning doesn't compute

    Canelo wasn't landing body shots consistently throughout the fight. It was only in the latter half of the fight canelo stepped up his out put, nevertheless SK did not looking visibly exhausted. In fact neither of the fighters looked perturbed in the later rounds, as many observes have suggested it looked like a sparring match.

    And this isn't about whether Canelo is a superior boxer/fighter than yarde, even though he really did not perform much better than Yarde until that punch which he was landing all night, suddenly managed to be the same punch that Completely knocked SK from all his senses.

    Both Yarde and Canelo where equally getting their heads snapped back at will by SK's jab.

    The only difference is Yarde didn't have that magical punch to bail him. All of the 6 foot natural 174 pounds couldn't match the power of a 5'8 middleweight.

    Yarde may as well pack in boxing if that's the case.

    If Yarde rebuilds and makes big noises here in the uk, Canelo would be interested, most certainly.

    He loves fighting simple come forward domestic level British fighters who are just grateful to share the same ring as him and collect the pay cheque. .

    You don't need to believe. DAZN only needs the Canelitos and casuals to believe.

    Gaining 15 pounds of muscle without fat is not possible without PEDs. Kovalev clearly took the knee and didn't want to win. Watch Kovalev's other fights, that's not how he jabs, and if I hear another fanboy talk about him being scared of the counter, my response is: "you really DKSAB".

    Why in the world would Canelo take a fight against a fighter that was KTFO by the champion who he just KTFO?

    WTF?

    Help me out here guys because I am being told that Kovalev was exhausted, totally spent thereby susceptible to the knockout.

    As I'm reviewing the 11th round once more, I am painstakingly searching for the hallmark signs of fatigue in SK. At the moment all I'm seeing is a fighter who still seems light on their toes, switching hitting, shooting out the jab like a shotgun piston, bobbing and weaving whilst dictating the pace of the fight

    I had imagined that the signs of a fatigued fighter, were heavily breathing through the mouth, looking to hold at every opportunity in order to buy time along with low punch output?

    So help me see/ find this exhausted version of kovalev in the 11th round that everyone speaks of!

    He's not MW Canelo - he put on 14 lbs of lean muscle in about 6 months to become a LHW(which is physiologically impossible to do without anabolic steroids or other hormones).

    Only the top 2% of athletic 19 year old males will be able to put on 18-24 lbs. of lean muscle in 1 year - and only in their first year lifting. That same 2% will at best be able to pack on half that in year 2. And it gets lower and lower every year thereafter. Canelo put on 14 in 6-8 months and he's been lifting and training for years. What I just typed is STRAIGHT FACTS - nobody is above those limits, we are humans, and its physiologically impossible to go above and beyond those numbers. Luke I said though, in 6-8 months Canelo threw on 14 lbs lean muscle without so much as breaking a sweat.

    There’s a thing called draining for a weigh in.

    He didn’t put on 14 pounds of muscle, dummy.

    I keep saying it; Canelo and Kovalev were both given two different scripts.

    Kovalev did not commit at all; I mean how can he forget to use his TWO best punches?

    There was a heavy shot a few seconds before those two which clearly rattled Kovalev as well. It was three big shots.

    If Kovalev took a dive he deserves an Oscar and Fury's spot in WWE.

    Golovkin didn't go to the body at all against Canelo. Was that a script?
