    And the rest of the champions at 160 will be facing cans yet again. In hopes that cinnamon pics them next after he’s done with the crusher. Can’t say we’re surprised that charlo is fighting a 154 pounder in Hogan next. Now let’s see who Boo Boo will face next. This is gonna be interesting

      One hell of a matchup! Both are taking risks in different ways. I'm impressed with Canelo taking this fight.

        FACT: Canelo - and Ward - are everything you clowns thought Golovkin would be

        which is truly hilarious... considering the fact that you casuals hate them both with a passion... and considering the fact that they BOTH exposed lil'G

          he only struggled for one round vs a guy who is a big puncher in kovalev's own division, other than that, he outboxed him the entire fight. without no funny business (i.e rehydration clause) this should be a tough fight for canelo

            Im excited about this fight. for those saying canelo deserves no props is crazy. Hes going up 2 weight classes vs kovalev not a no name guy. Yes, kovalev has slowed down but the man still has power and to me this is a 50/50 fight. Props for canelo.

              But canelos last fight (jacobs) was at middleweight so it really is a 2 weight class jump. I dont even really count the fielding fight it was like a stay busy tune up fight.

                The main advantage for Canelo is his exceptional head movement and the main advantage for Kovalev is his jab. And other things make this really intriguing, such as can Canelo take a flush shot to the head by Kovalev and can Kovalev take Canelo's body shots. One of the most intriguing fights of 2019.

                  If it goes the distance, expect a Canelo robbery regardless of whatever takes place in the ring. Kovalev needs to KO Canelo in order to win.

                    You know I will. I'm a logical boxing fan, not a hater.

                      I think Canelo may have bit off more than he can chew, I mean Kovalev isn't what he used to be, but dude is still strong and massive, might be too big for Canelo. I just don't know if Canelo's shots will be able to hurt Kovalev.
