If Alvarez gets chopped up & KOd will it mean he was overrated, or just bit off more than could chew

    It would mean the Kovalev was a Cherry Gone Wild.

    It's a bit more than he can chew, imo.

    Bit off more than he can chew. There isn't a middleweight today who should be favoured against Kovalev

    There will be absolute no shame in losing to the Krusher after jumping a weight class. None at all

    A loss to an ATG does not mean you were overrated.

    I can't believe such a question needs to be asked.

    Besides that, Canelo already lost to GGG, albeit unofficially and he is still one of the best.

    It's being asked because people have absurdly made Alvarez a 4 to 1 favorite

    it would mean he still lost against a fighter he put at a disadvantage of weight recovery who recently had a brutal fight
