Lol. Just found out canelo wants a catch weight and rehydration clause

[SplitSecond]

This fight was always ******. Kovalev would have to sell out for it to be made, at 175 canelo 100% loses. Canelo has better chances of waiting for bivol to grow in notoriety and then fight him at a catchweight, or 168.

As long as you killed Floyd, Pacquiao, Cotto, GGG when they did the same demands the problem is most here didn't and only hating now because its canelo. My point is this isn't uncommon and has been going on in boxing forever.

And how else do you make fights when guys don't fight in the same weight classes? He already beat GGG as for Andrade and Saunders you are nuts if you think beating the 4th and 5th best middleweight is better then moving up and beating a bigger better fighter in your 4th weight class in 3 years. Especially after you already beat the lineal middleweight champ, then the universally number 1 and 2 best Middleweights of the world. Kovalev is a far more dangerous opponent even if he has to sacrifice weight. He is also a bigger name and better draw for fans then both those names. If you aren't fighting GGG he is the next biggest name to be thrown in the mix to fight Canelo.

Personally, I didn't give much credit to those wins, though i take your point that many people did.

Beating or simply fighting Kovalev at 175 would obviously be massive. Doing it at 168 for the 175 title? Not for me.

Andrade would be for undisputed, GGG remains unfinished business and Saunders is still undefeated, holding a title at 168.
There's also Callum Smith and Benavides at 168.

I would credit all of these over draining Kovalev to a catchweight, imposing a hydration clause and then calling yourself light heavyweight champion.

Clenelo Alvaroid is the biggest cheat in boxing, simple.

[Lance98]

He wanted a rehydration clause against jacobs, a fellow 160 iber, so he will definitely enforce it with kovalev if they fight.

Ugh not interested

Why are links not supplied ?!?!?!?!

[techliam]

Shouldn’t Canelo win a title at 168 first?

He wants to be a 4 division champion, but has only been a 2 weight champion up until now

[Shape up]

Floyd had already fought multiple times at 154 yet forced Canelo to go down to 152 otherwise he wouldn't fight him. Manny had already fought at 147 yet forced cotto to come to down 145 or no fight not to mention a million other catchweight fights Manny impossed on his opponents. Cotto forced Sergio Martinez to come down to 159 or no fight. Sugar Ray Leonard forced Lalonde a light heavyweight to go down all the way to 168 or he wouldn't fight him. All these guys justified it by saying I have already moved up mulitple weight classes in my career your weight is not my natural weight.

Canelo has already moved up what 5 weight classes through out his career won titles in 3 different weights. Jumped up to 160 and whooped the so called boogyman at his own weight. He is a natural middleweight weight you want him to jump up 2 full weight classes, give up 15lbs and you think Kovalev shouldn't have to sacrifice a thing to get the fight?

Pacquiao moved up 10 weight classes

[STREET CLEANER]

If both fighters are in a collision course and are pound for pound fighters I can see a compromise for each in regards of the weight to get the fight done.

This has not been the case lately. Just one fighter trying to cash in the popularity and title from the other fight and the other fighter caving in because of the money incentive.

Interesting fight but if already Kov is having difficulties making 175 I have no interest in the fight.

[Curtis Harper]

GGG should have chased greatness instead of going for a ''how many mediocre to bummy cans can I beat up consecutively'' record.
