Yea, So feared that a prospect with 18 fights, No world level experience and ZERO professional sparring jumped at the chance to fight him in his own backyard and almost KO'd him... smh
typo mistake, no auto-correction for me since i type in multiple languages on my phone. .
and yes he also stops rocky on the same night... kova is a dangerous fight for any mw...
True. But he's not the best light heavyweight so it's meaningless. Canelo at light heavy is not a big stretch weight wise for him. he walks at 190. Tailor made for Canelo. The fight is not what it appears to be.
Until they are in the ring and Kovalev is at his full hydration weight I won’t believe cameltoe will fight him without draining him
You can believe what you want, but asserting your opinions as facts is another matter.
There are no weight restrictions on this fight. Where did you read that there are? Citations, please.

It's spelled KOVALEV. Not Kovslev. Have you even heard of Kovalev?
He could KO Fielding with a feint.

Oh VADA the testing agency that's so good it missed Dillian Whyte's abnormal finding and it had to be picked up by UKAD instead? Sure that one! of course. I'm not surprised hes enrolled with them 24/7!
Yes vada the testing agency that has more credibility than you or me or anyone else posting on this website... the same one that says he has been enrolled in 24-7-365
on 8 weeks notuce, Kovalev forced to drop five pounds below his best fighting weight to fight for a payday because his best years are obviously behind him.
Pre-fight analysis.
kovslev ko's dervy and rolls in the same night, with a jab LMAO.

Nailed it way better than I did. Facts and names, not just opinion. Here's the absolute answers to those questions.
Easiest,,,,,,
he's a name opponent with zero risk,,,,
the others can win,so go easy, walk from the best
easy money,,,
makes a false challenge appear real,,,,,
another alphabet title.
If it goes to decison all close rounds go to him so he's guarenteed the decison
The list goes on and on
And that's why I couldn't give a damn about the boring a can of peas Clenelo and his fights.
So so so many better opponents and they give us this crap,,,,,,,,,and the clock keeps ticking.
Next up Munguia. and the joke fights keep coming

Canelo sees what we all have seen. Kovs weak body.
McGirt sees this and no doubt will be working that body but is it enough?
Kov has the great Jab and that weapon can skin the head of ol BigAssRed but that right hand must follow!
If it goes late Canelo will Kill the body and the head will follow!!
I want Kov to KO Canelo But he is more likely to break his hand on Bone head!
My prediction: Canelo by KO in 6
So how come not Bivol, Beterviev or Gvozdyk then? Why Kovalev? Why not Callum Smith or David Benevidez or Gilberto Ramirez? Why Kovalev? Why not Andrade or BJS?

Canelo would be in competitive 50/50 fights with the other mentioned fighters. Kovalev is the oldest and most vulnerable champion who Canelo is a huge favorite against.
Kovalev looks great to the casual fan and the Canelo diggriders who defend the pampered diva.
Kovalev was a bad mf 5 years ago, when he was in his prime, when he was fast on his legs. Now Kovalev is on the way out of the sport, got knocked out twice and is cashing out.
Canelo specializes in facing old past prime fighters like Baldomir, Shane Mosley, Miguel Cotto and now Kovalev, they also waited till GGG slowed down and was past his prime, even dropped his belt to avoid a younger GGG. All the matchmaking for Canelo involves either mismatches (Khan, Fielding, Chavez Jr., Liam Smith, Kirkland, Angulo etc) or guys past their prime. His whole resume is a huge mess to the hardcore boxing fan, if he ever faced a somewhat good opponent who wasnt past prime (Lara, Trout) he could have lost the fight, even to past prime GGG he should be 0:2 or 1 loss and 1 draw.
Canelo is listed as a 6:1 favorite over Kovalev, while he is listed as 1:1 vs GGG if they fought again or 1:1 vs Callum Smith who is the same age as Canelo.
It looks great on paper and to the casual fan, but if you know boxing you realize whats happening here.
Exactly. Beat me to it.
What a farce! Making a big deal out of nothing. It's so obvious he's shop worn. It's like trying to make us believe you're getting the hot LIke a Virgin version of Madonna when you end up with the wide vag saggy botox filled 60 year old whore Madonna. No thanks, let her change her Depends panties on her own, I'll date her daughter instead.
Casuals will think this is a great matchup bc of the names....but most boxing insiders/experts will predict the most likely and predictable outcome - Canelo by Ko.
Yeah bro, Kov been past his prime and hasn't looked good in years.
So how come not Bivol, Beterviev or Gvozdyk then? Why Kovalev? Why not Callum Smith or David Benevidez or Gilberto Ramirez? Why Kovalev? Why not Andrade or BJS?
