Kathy Duva: Kovalev vs Canelo will be at 175

[Roadblock]

Rehydration clause are meant to protect the integrity of the weight class of which the belt is being fought for, dumbass. It's one of the fairest rules in place and that's what makes IBF a tier above the rest.

The notion that the clause is meant to set a disadvantage is pure ignorance.

I agree with what youre saying only that it does disadvantage Kov because its not what he fights under, so a different kov turns up, one thats drawn too fine.

This is why I dont like CWs and clauses because they can be flip flopped to help one and or hurt the other , just weigh in on limit and come what ever 30hrs later, or same day weigh-in.

A CW or rehydration clause is not about creating a level playing field, its really creating a handicap and thats why the smaller guy wants them, look when they force a guy to come up and be bigger like Manny JMM, they not much slower but punch a lot harder and is physically strong, Manny paid the price for wanting JMM at 147.

I dont like CWs or rehydration clauses, beat the guy at his weight and then you really beat him and their is no question mark.

You read what I wrote a few more times, slowly. I said most say the “best org” is the IBF.

Most?? Their rehydration clause or non rehydration clause has come under a lot of criticism by many people..

Here's an article about weight cutting and brain damage.

Read and heed..

Canelo will ask for a 182/183 next morning rehydration clause. Mark my words.

I was going to say 180 but that would be too much.

[True That]

I'm pretty positive that Canelo will have a rehydration limit clause as part of the contract.

Theres a rehydration clause for sure.
