    Take solace in the fact that I think every time I've guaranteed something on here, I have completely faceplanted lol. I too will throw you props if you're right too, and part of me hopes you are because I really admired Kovalev as a fighter in his prime, loved how he fought, his skill, all of it. Unfortunately I think he has entirely brought his massive crash upon himself, and after seeing Alvarez in interviews I find him a really likeable guy and also really admire him as a fighter so kinda don't wanna see him lose now at this point.

    At some point, after the referee's inspection, it will be discovered that Alvarez's brakes have been beaten off. Stoppage by 7.

    If Krusher is not caught again I tend to agree with you. After all, Kov was up 59-55 when he was stopped. He just needs to pay attention this time FOR THE WHOLE FIGHT.

    I agreed with the two judges felt it was somewhat competive here and there but Kovalev won 8 rounds to 4. I demand likes for being right.

    it wasn't quite as close as I thought I had it 8-4 but in fights you can have a close 8-4 and a wide 8-4 this was a wide 8-4. kovalev won the first 2 and was never down in the fight, alvarez had a good round 3 and 11 and a couple more good rounds but Kovalev fought smart not like the krusher though I'm not sure we see the Krusher again.

    You'll see the Krusher again, not every boxer can take punches like Alvarez. Most will fold to those right hands.

    kovalev didn't really land those punches. it was a very pitty pat matchup
