    On my scorecard he needed either a stoppage or two knockdowns.

    Nah, Canelo the invisible. Even if you KO'd him, he'd be awoken to Mariachi bands playing around his hospital bed celebrating his glorious victory due to DQ as his opponent continuously turning his back to retreat to a natural corner as Canelo lay on the floor.

    Kovalev was throwing mostly pitty pat punches. And a lot of them landed on Canelo's arms. But many touched Canelo as well. So it depends strictly on how a specific judge sees them. Realistically, Kovalev had no chance to win against Canelo in Las-Vegas fighting like that.

    i had it tied after the 10th. i remarked how canelo had landed the best punches of the fight in that rd and asked how much it was going to effect kovalev. it looks like it softened him the last bit he needed.

    No. I had it even and canelo had totally taken over.

    He gave away a few early rounds settling in but it was intentional.

    I had Kovalev up, but both looked like ****. Kovalev throwing but aint landing much and Canelo landing power punchers every second round, ahahaah. Worst fight i seen in a while.

    I had Kovalev up 6-4, so technically he could've won if he swept the rest with a knockdown. But I voted yes.

    I had him up by a round, but several of the rounds were close.

    I had it 6-4 in favour of Kov after 10. One round really tight i could of given it to Canelo so it would be sat at 5-5. The momentum was clearly with Canelo but on my card without a knock down if momentum stayed with Canelo it was heading to a draw as far as i could see.
