No way is the fight this Saturday. That's crept up quietly. Good fights coming thick and fast atm. Hope Alvarez finishes Kovalev's career. Never liked him and always thought he was an over rated bully puncher.Comment

Kovalev's chin has gone. Now Alvarez knows he can stop him, I expect another win inside the distance.Comment

Yeah man I think Alvarez has his number now. Once a bully like Kovalev loses his intimidation factor, it's almost unheard of for them to turn their career around when they start losing. Once the decline starts, it's all one way.I think Alvarez stops him. If you watch the first fight, Kovalev started winning every round from the 3rd round on, at least in my opinion. But my problem is, he didn't started winning rounds because of his skills, but because he hurt Alvarez in the 3rd round, who then went into full survival mode and kept covering up for 3-4 rounds, so Kovalev was simply outlanding him as a result. But before he hurt him in the 3rd, Alvarez was outboxing him and countered him a hundred times with his jab. He was looking fresher and was beating Kov to the punch up till that point. Kov was looking very slow, slugish, and his reactions and timing were way off.
I expect Alvarez to win, probably by stoppage, and Kovalev will struggle to win any big fights against top guys for however long he continues.Comment

Maybe you should watch the fight again lol Kovalev was getting outboxed until he hurt Álvarez in round 3. Also, IMO Kovalev is clearly slower than Alvarez.
Kovalev boxed rings around Alvarez? That’s not really how the fight went down lol. Either way it doesent matter Alvarez will very likely win again.Comment

Alvarez takes this one again. Kovalev and his team are saying Alvarez landed a "lucky punch" in the first fight...im-possible. No such thing as luck in this sport.
As Ward mentioned several times, Kovalev can't be corrected or taken to task about coming up short in training and during fights. He's STILL making excuses for his losses. Not a good look.Comment
