    Would bring a match between Kovalev and GGG I believe and then maybe canelo would accept a 3rd match with GGG should GGG be victorious in such match

    I don’t think GGG will move up to fight Kovalev to be honest. I think he would still go after a 3rd right with Canelo.

    Personally I think GGG beat Canelo both times. They should have a 3rd fight so that maybe, just maybe, a correct decision can be made on the night. Just for the novelty.

    If Kovalev beats Canelo, especially by way of KO, it would be an early Christmas present to me, and a public service for all us boxing fans.

    Kovalev on facing GGG.... I'm not so sure about this, I think GGG is too small for him. GGG does not re-hydrate like Canelo does so it is not the same as Canelo facing Kovalev. I think GGG can fight at 168 and that is about it. Also, take into consideration GGG's age. He should stay at 160 and 168.

    Golovkin at his age should not be weight jumping. Can be very dangerous for him if he comes in undersized. He also now lacks the speed to overcome a significant size advantage.

    Canelo has the speed and style to negate a major length advantage, but he doesn't have the gas tank so the Kovalev fight will be interesting.

    No it won’t. You must be on some heavy crack if you believe the tomato can devourer would move up for any risk, especially one like this. He would still shamelessly ask Alvarez to move down and give him a payday and guess what?, you guys will roar him on for it.

    Kovalev has 0 chance to beat Clenelo unless he blitzes him and forces a ref stoppage
    or puts gaynelo down for the 10 count. I don't see the latter happening so Canelo UD
    118-110 in a 115-113 type of fight where it 'appears' Kovalev wins. Of course, Kovalev
    'appeared' to have beaten Wored 115-112 but got North American Boxing Establishmented
    on the cards. Clenelo won maybe 4 rounds against Golovkin I and yet got the draw to retain
    his fake 'championship'

    If Kovalev beats Canelo and Golovkin beats Derevyanchenko, I think GGG should fight Kovalev. I feel for Golovkin, the positives far outweigh the negatives.

    Thanks for laying out a case for Canelo being a massive weight bully picking on guys as light as 154 :applaudit:Good job buddy.

    Yeah, because it’s SO easy to move up two weight divisions, compete against a champion, and move back down two weight divisions and still compete. :lol: The stupidity here is alarming. Still can’t say I’m surprised though.

    I don't quite follow your logic on this ?
    Canelo has decided to jump up in weight- - - Kovalev is fighting his normal weight.
    GGG & Chenko are fighting their normal weight....Why would/Should any of the others feel the need to jump up or down a weight at all?
    We all know canelo is only jumping up as he has avoided both Chenko & GGG so guess(to him) its safer up there ?
