Another stu.pid hater.
Canelo beat the best two guys in his división .
And we don't know if would be a catchweight fight or not
And canelo accepted the catchweight in Floyd fight...
Actually, I like Canelo. That doesn't mean I agree with all of his decisions though.
What's the point of the fight? Winning a belt at a catch weight is BS and shouldn't be allowed. If the fight is purely for the challenge, then why the CW? He should fight Kov at his natural weight if he wants true bragging rights.
Canelo has real (and profitable) challenges at 160lb and 168lbs, why risk getting injured in an unnecessary fight?
Last but not least, many still refuse to give Mayweather full credit for beating Canelo at CW and I understand why....
kovalev is 36 and while still good, he's not the same. perfect cherry pick and drained? even better. you wont see him going after gvodzk or bivol but its because kovalev is such a huge star :haha:
So Canelo a natural mw moving up to 172 to fight Kovalev the champion is frowned upon?
But ggg not moving up any weight, up or down, is used as a sign of how great ggg is.
You fanboys need to stop with your strange, cherry picking logic.
Kovalev won't be drained going to 172. Canelo fighting at 172 without any warm-ups or at least a year for his body to adjust would be a dare to be great moment.
I don't think it happens but if it did, Kovalev won't turn down a Canelo payday and Canelo would need to gain and adjust to 172 from 160. Be honest because Canelo is a smaller 160.
Going after a big name once they are washed up just to put that name on the resume. Not interested.
He needs to go the GGG route and fight no name cans.
Márquez was 40 years old when he beat Pacquiao
Martínez was like 36 when he beat JR
Floyd was like 38 when he beat Pacquiao and younger Maidana
And take your red back, Maxi
You can't give red when you are red xD
No way in fuc.kin hell
Canelo is way more skillful and has better defense and is better counterpuncher fighters
Canelo does have more defense skills and I will give you that but he is not "way more skillful" as you put it.
Kovalev has been in just as many wars, and especially versus fighters who fight dirty, Ward x2.
Kovalev's problem is that he did not need to use his skills and boxing IQ, which he surely has, because most of the time he was able to get it done with his power. BUT... the boy can box when he needs to.
LOL, Kovalev has just as much skill and experience as Canelo, if not more, especially after two fights with Ward who fought dirty.

Yeah, i know but Kovalev is bigger and knows how to fight
I think canelo can k.o him
Kovalev never fought with a guy with the skills, defense and body shots of canelo
LOL, Kovalev has just as much skill and experience as Canelo, if not more, especially after two fights with Ward who fought dirty.
Despite the avenging L last time out I think Kov is washed so this seems like a 4th title grab more than a legit fight. Not hyped for this one if it gets made, but I get it. A 4th title is huge even if its vs a washed guy at a catchweight.
Kovalev looked great vs Álvarez in rematch and is top-3, of his division
Its a great fight
Idk why some of guys really think Canelo beats Kovalev lol he is not Ward. Kovalev past his best but cmon Canelo will beaten black blue and probably stopped this isnt Ggg Kovalev is a even more vicious puncher.
If this happends Canelo only hope is to weight drain The Krusher.
Sergey Kovalev has been wanting this fight for THREE YEARS! (not really)...
April 2016 - At about 2:10
Reporter asks about the potential GGG vs Canelo matchup
Kovalev - "I understand why Canelo not getting up , you know. Everybody understand. Who is not stupid? Everybody understand. Just making us wait, wait, wait. How long we wait for Pacquiao-Mayweather, 7 years? And they got good money, perfect money, they got. Right now just speaking, speaking, speaking, and when will happen it's going to be big and mega fight.
Reporter - "GGG will be 39 years old in 7 years, right?"
Kovalev - "And why not? If you're going to get $300 millions, why not?! I'm ready to fight for this money even when I'm going to be 40."
Why not, indeed.
