    ... Yarde was but a "springbok", tbh...

      Strange how that works
      ... So: Canelo would fight him only because his age (and overall condition) is an issue... (what's so difficult to understand?)

        Nelo can't do a thing about Kovs age.
        So I'll ask again -
        Is Kov so old, he should retire right now before he gets hurt ???? And who would be the guy to hurt him ?!?!?

        Ahhhh.....but it's Nelo we're talking about.

          He complained that Tunde was rubbing his chest too hard.

            ... Kovalev never called out Canelo... it was the other way around...
            ... so: it's exactly Nelo (and his big money) we're talking about...

              And who is the guy to bash him into retirement ?!?!?

                Canelo has a bad tendance and history of fighting guys out of their prime and not at their comfortable weights

                  ... as I said above... I guess that Kova is old (and washed up) enough, but this wouldn't prevent him from risking to get badly hurt, just in order to secure his family a better future... (Russians are often very "lyrical")...
