    The frail drained pitty patting war torn dusty booze addled smiling zombie we saw fight Canelo on Saturday, managed to rock him badly once, and school him for 8 of the 10 1/2 rounds. The Kovalev from the Cleverly fight gets that little roided up ginger runt out of there in 2.

    Agree. Kovalev in his prime was fearsome.

    Would the Ginger Hulk even contemplate stepping in the ring with a prime Sergey Krusher Kovalev?!

    How that result would be the same in their respective primes if green Canelo just KO'ed prime Kovalev in 11? Prime Canelo would KO him in 1!

    Canelo too skilled for Kovalev. Styles make fights. If Kovalev opens up more he gets KTFO sooner.

    Kovalev would likely take more risks in his prime, allowing Canelo to land with more frequency and harder.

    That's how.

    People here still can't get it, Canelo is just to fast to counter the bigger slower Kova, Kova would've taken more risks and would've been out of there probably earlier.
