Not one person on press row. Had it for chilmeba. Not one broadcast had it for chilmeba. The broadcast I watched had it 118-110 Alvarez. It wasn't that wide but it was 116-112 alvarez

I have no problem with trash talking if you can back it up. Kovalev is vulnerable at this stage of his career but it probably wont be Alvarez taking the mantle. Bivol will be the "crusher" if he fights Kovalev.

Originally posted by PunchyPotorff View PostIMO Kovalev beat Ward in the first fight, and I'm definitely not alone in that opinion. But like some others have brought up, how will Alvarez do with his elbowing, ball punching etc game? I doubt he's as slick at that as Ward was. And he certainly won't have judges in his pocket to ignore that.
If Kovalev comes in less than the sum of his parts when they're all finely tuned, yes Alvarez has a good chance. Otherwise, he'll likely wear out from body and head shots before the 10th. Alvarez has some serious talent, yes, but Kovalev... even with the Ward issues, isn't some pushover. That's just wishful thinking. I wonder if Kovalev can get past Beterbiev, Stevenson, Bivol, Smith Jr. But not all that concerned about this fight.
