Kovalev was shot, why do you think Canelo took the fight. Kovalev looked shot against his last two opponents Eleider Álvarez and Anthony Yarde. People are acting like Canelo beat a 2015 version of Kovalev but reality should check in soon.
Canelo is a good fighter but it is hard to give him credit for beating a shot fighter. He will probably beat Chad Dawson too and then we can say he is the greatest of all time.
Tell you the truth, watching Fury's earlier career before Klitschko I didn't think he was that good. But since then he has been on a level much higher than Joshua and Wilder.
I admit I was shocked too. I was surprised at Joshua's lacking heart and endurance also. Is it possible Hearn knew this was possible as he was matching him over the years. Is that why he didn't want him to rematch Whyte?
Lets see, Fury fought an old slow Klitschko and Louis fought Max Baer, Sharkey, Jersey Joe Walcott, Primo Carnera, and several other legendary heavyweights.
Close one! lol
Dirrell is a running, clinching, wrestling fighter with a weak chin and no heart. Froch beat him fair because he ran too much and held too much. He has some skill but not enough to be a champion. He was starting to come apart in the Abraham fight and Abraham would knock him out in a rematch. The Dirrell brothers will never be better than pretty good fighters.
Rare to find someone that thinks Froch won that fight.
