    Is Canelo the biggest ASide abuser in boxing history?

    He does seem to be figuring out just how much he can get away with while keeping his fanbase.

    10lbs rehydration on Kovalev?

    Assuming it was in the afternoon of the fight, hours before the fight, allowing Kovalev to put a few more pounds on after...how much more weight could he have put on?

    I mean, how much of an impact would this have on Kovalev?

    Its not like hes a guy who gets in the ring pushing 200lbs

    Like Vanes Martrosiyan. He was training for a fight that was cancelled I heard.

    No. Fighters try to peak for fights. It's senseless to train full blast all year round or as soon as your name is mentioned.

    Don't think it would have helped Smith to be honest. Just saying.

    I don't know. All I know is he was inactive for two years because he had quit boxing.

    Oh, and Vanes had three weeks notice.

    Yes, rehydration clause.
