Cant have it both ways Btw it was a close fight If u had Kova up big you dont know how to score a boxing match CANELO KOd him so u guys cant say nothing now lol
I said Kovalev was old and shot before the fight. I predicted Canelo would stop him late or win the UD. It played out exactly like that. I have not got any skin in this game.
i think canelo had an off night thats for sure was looking desperate for big shots alot of the night, kovas gas tank IMPROVED ALOT so credit to him there
Kovakel looked afraid to let his hands go.. I'm not surprised by the KO, but I thought Kovalev would actually come to fight, not tap away on Canelos gloves
Kovalev is a diminished fighter. I did pick him to win. Despite everything against him. I hope he retires now. Fight was bit of a stinker but credit to both guys- Kovalev fought a strategy that at this point in his career gave him what he felt was his best chance and Canelo for ending the fight.
He can be shot and still be winning the rounds, they’re not mutually exclusive...it’s says more about Canelo that he couldn’t win rounds against a shot Kovalev.
Kovalev was on the decline. Now he is shot and this confirmed it 1000%. My prediction was Canelo on points because I thought Kovalev was weak and couldn't pull the trigger anymore. When a known power puncher cannot throw his POWER punches anymore then you know he is a completely shot fighter.
He’s well past his best, but still a top10 LHW. “Shot” is an exaggaration. Still though, I knew he’d be there to be taken late in the fight for a guy Canelo’s caliber.
