Canelo was evading Kovalev’s heavy shots

Why are you lying? He tried to take elediers heads off in the rematch. In the canelo fight he didn't throw any real punches

 

No lying here.

He stayed on the backfoot and worked primarily off the jab for most of the fight. There weren't that many punches thrown with actual intent until maybe the championship rounds, which wasn't the case in the first fight. That wouid be the only time Kovalev really had tried to put some mustard behind his shots when he was trying to place emphasis on the victory. Even then, they weren't thrown with the same conviction than they were last year against Eleider.

 

Kovalev was indeed throwing hard leather....

And that shot Tyson landed on Bruce Seldon would have put any HW to sleep!!

 

I agree. Even Kovalev's jabs were massive in the Eledider rematch

It’s not that Canelo did anything great in the victory. Kovalev beat himself.

 

Compared to what he was throwing and landing in the first fight with E. Alvarez over the first six rounds, they aren't.

 

Yea but just looking at post fight interview you could tell Kovalev took the fight for the bag. He was so snugged on Canelo's sack even at the press conferences.

 

We've gone over this before. It's elusive. Hopefully no madness this time.

 

I didn't see any either,
