    Kovalev is in the stretch now where all of the other belt holders are looking to add his scalp, they have money backers, and the networks are fighting over title fights. He's where he wanted to be from an exit strategy point. I think Bivol and Beterbiev will be big money fights on the international tv rights from for all involved.

      krusher is still good enough to beat the other champs. especially beterbiev who's never beaten anybody and has no experience against top opposition. beterbiev is also chinny he's been drooped multiple times by bums.

        Alvarez is a one trick pony
        He's strong at what he does but it takes a boring chessmatch to overcome it

            Knew Kova would win the rematch.

            Looked in better shape and more focussed. Looked horrendous in the first fight. Was gassed and trainers said he was lazy in camp

              He's been dropped twice and got back up to knock both opponents out in less than 5 rounds. Everybody gets dropped and they were both undefeated shoot even mayweather should have 2 knockdowns on his record.

              Everyone has been saying he doesnt look the same since ward and he should give alvarez the rubber match cause he didnt have to give him the rematch.

                  He looked exactly the same in the first fight. Alvarez would throw a few punches in the beginning of the round then he went into heavybag mode for the rest of the round.

                  Pretty easy to look good against a heavybag on legs.

                    the fight played out way more complex than that...kov took his confidence and made him respect his gameplan way to early.
                    kov recovered and held well in this fight and for hte most part kept a damn good defense too

                    alvarez was forced to come foward after 4 round after having no success in the first 3...NO CONFIDENCE AT ALL WHEN U SWITCH GAMEPLANS IS NOT A GOOD THING.
                    he wasnt even warmed up to switch gameplan..u see??

                      You could tell he was, if you let someone like Kovalev outbox you then you either a bum (Which means Kov would have taken you out sooner) or you were just loading up looking to land one big shot.
