    Well, ****.

    Kovalev's strategy (keep firing away at Canelo's guard while getting constantly tagged w/out making adjustments) was so ****ing stupid that it invites conspiracy theories and would have certainly ended with him losing the fight, but I did not think Alvarez had the power to drop him. Kov probably gassed himself out throwing 500 punches @ the mitts.

    Hats off to Canelo in any event. Nobody's been able to figure out his peekaboo ****.

    This guy was almost stopped by Anthony Yarde FFS. You can't be serious. He's done. He has no power, chin or stamina left. His body is ruined.

    Kovalev took the Bonus deal from Golden Boy WWE Productions to take a dive in the 11th!

    Strange fight from start to finish. Kov started dancing from a few half shots and then just folded

    The left hand didn't even land flush. It was kinda like a slap and it was partially blocked, but it gave Kovalev noodle legs? Yeah, alright.

    The theme was that Kovalev needed to bridge the rounds and how close a fight it was.

    You don't win damn near 8 or 9 rounds of a fight, never get caught, never get remotely in trouble, hurt a guy, visibly push a guy back, and then get hit twice in round 11 and melt and die. That just does not happen.

    Kov was clearly winning the fight despite the fact that he is a one-handed fighter and is way past his best and anyone who says otherwise is full of ****. Kovalev's a mere shadow of his former self and it's comical how any of Clenelo's clown fanbase could argue otherwise.
