Nah, that was Cotto. Canelo wanted 155 but it was turned down by Cotto, who insisted on 156. Neither wanted it at 160 lol.
Just looked it up, it was in fact Canelo requesting the 156 catch weight.
I mean, it's not too bad of an idea if you think about it. Canelo will now call all the shots though. It'll be at 155 over 156 (Cotto's request) unlike last time.
Wasn't Canelo who wanted the fight at 156?
I'm not going to call it a robbery but the judges' scorecards are really iffy to me. They saw Kovalev leading by 5 points at the end of 6 and gave Ward every single round after that. So basically at the end of 6 all Kovalev need was one more round to win and they decided not to give him another single round after that.
Sorry, but I didn't see Ward sweeping 7-12. The judges knew who they wanted to win and judged accordingly. Close fight but Kova should have left the ring with his titles.
When u say,They saw Kovalev leading by 5 points at the end of 6 Who is, they?
