No, he is way past it and the win over the other Alvarez is not the best win of his career. E.Alvarez is below average.
Ohh but when Pacquiao beat a old shot weight drained de la hoya you were all over him on how great he was Lmfao
Pacquiao was a massive underdog and everyone expected him to lose. Kovalev just nearly got ktfo by Yarde a couple of months ago. Canelo was the favorite. Also Pacquiao dominated Oscar while Canelo didnt dominate Kovalev. Also Oscar is an atg while Kovalev is not. The two situations are not comparable.
Nobody likes Clenelo Even in his homeland he gets panned They see him as fake A deck-stacking ginger snake A deceitful little toad A charismaless chode Who hides out in the chicken coop like a petrified hen And only comes out every now and then To feast on the bones of old men Nobody likes Clenelo
How? Saying that somebody is not completely shot, is saying that they almost are. So how could it have been an AMAZING win?
LMFAO ohhh the irony in this post is awesome. Glad to have you back Stevie, your intelligent posts have been missed
Even though canelo’s had all his issues regarding drugs, catch weights, dodgy scorecards and all that crap. As a fighter he’s one of the only people who’s willing to fight anyone and move up in weight to do so regardless of the circumstances. For that he deserves respect.
Everybody in the world STILL ranks Kovalev #5 at LHW. And that is with Canelo slotting in above him. So, even after getting KTFO by Canelo, he is still the #4 best LHW in the world not named Canelo. And people try to discredit the win? OK folks.
H2h he is not even in top 20 in lhw. He is ranked due to his former achievements. If you look objectively Kovalev has 0 punch resistance, he gets tired after 5 rounds of doing nothing and he cannot throw a power shot anymore. Even after a full training camp he would probably get KOed by any tough younger guy these days.
