Weird but it’s Thursday and there’s still no buzz around for this fight......it’s. A big fight on paper but it’s not acting like one....two big events this weekend.......England vs South Africa rugby World Cup final and this fight.....one at the start of the day and the other in the middle of the night.....going to be great viewing
1. Canelo is 5’8.
2. Canelo do not have as much power as Kovalev.
3. For all the people saying Kovalev can’t take body shots and Canelo will KO Kovalev is far from the truth. Kovalev has been taking punches from guys much larger than Canelo for his entire professional career. So let’s agree the power advantage goes to Sergey Kovalev.
4. Canelo has never fought anyone with the Height and Range with a great powerful Jab. Chavez and Fielding both didn’t execute the effectiveness controlling range and the Jab against Canelo which is why Canelo was able to just Walk threw them with constant pressure.
5. KOVALEV has a far better jab and boxing Abilities than Chavez Jr and Fielding.
Just my two cents. I got Kovalev
Do You guys have any idea how much HGH He injected since those fights.
HE was 5'7 for Floyd, 5'8 for Golovkin, will be 5'9 for Kovalev, 6 feet for Cruiserweight debut and 6'5 for HW debut - and We will all have to pretend it's normal.
bwa ha ha ha .... :lol1:
Is Nelo really 5'9" or 5'8"?
and is Kovalev really 6 ft or 6ft 1" ?
It seems like these stats are often changing. They should have standardized measurements for all fighters.
Canelo sure looked 5’8 during the golovkin fights..
Isn't Floyd like 5'7? There's no way Canelo is 5'9.

like the guy who interviewed Badou Jack said...
fighters/trainers are all saying that Canelo is in a REAL gunfight
only the bookies and casuals are heavily favoring him
Canelo is a stud for going after Kovalev
yes it is a calculated risk... but it is a BIG calculated risk
I have said it MANY times... the gameplan they used to nullify Hopkins was incredibly simple/effective... a similar gameplan should be even easier to implement on a smaller man like Canelo... countering that, Canelo has youth/speed and a style better suited to Kovalev, than Hopkins had
intriguing fight
Canelo UD12 in a MUCH tougher - and possibly controversial - fight... than everyone expected
I honestly think Canelo and his corner know that this will be a very tough fight... they are not taking Kovalev lightly at all, they will be 100% ready
Is Nelo really 5'9" or 5'8"?He is 5'8" so whoever made the chart is wrong. He is short and stocky and nobody grows an inch at age 29. He has always been listed as 5'8" before and many think he is an inch shorter than that.
Isn't Floyd like 5'7? There's no way Canelo is 5'9.

Floyd is (was) 5'8... Canelo is 5'8 as well... :)
strange? for myself, i'm not asking for this match up but i'll watch the fight... :D
... we'll watch the fight, of course... but I only noticed that there's no hype here... :)
I'm browsing the threads on Canelo vs Kova fight...
... nobody here gives a shit, even if it's the fight week... :)
