This is why the bookies had this a cherry pick

Some people around here have no idea what they're looking at when they see Canelo because of their hater vision goggles. There have been numerous threads on this board claiming Canelo's power is overrated because he doesn't score a ton of knockouts when virtually all his opponents are more tentative than in any other fight of their careers and reluctant to open up to him. That pattern held true even at light heavyweight and we saw exactly why in the 10th round. Bro Kovalev was almost knocked the **** out by Yarde and Eleider Alvarez who is not known for his power knocked him the **** out Kovalev punch resistance is gone don't take this as if Canelo has LHW power

Relax man . Why are you so Angry ?

Kovalev is shot he can't go 10 rounds anymore good pay day for him to retire hopefully he won't get in the ring with a Beterbiev

Let's get one thing clear. It was NOT a cherrypick. Cherrypick is someone who has no chance. This was definitely a strategic choice of an opponent that carried great risk vs. reward odds. These odds were right - Canelo should have been favorite over a damaged, older fighter coming off KOs. But it wasn't crazy to think that Kov could win that. This is an accurate assessment.
