    Everyone bringing up this rehydration clause ad naseum, but does anyone even know what Kovalev's fight night weight was against Yarde or Eleider? For all we know it's within the standard 10lbs. So much fabricated outrage to discredit Canelo no matter who he fights.
    Kovalev said he was 180 in the fight vs Eleider rematch.

        If Canelo legitimately fights him at 175 with no bullshyt, I'll give him full credit, win or lose.
        However, the guy is known for bullshyt like "Caneloweight", farce matches, PED use. Don't act outraged that people want to know the facts.
        I don't know where you got the 180lbs rehydration limit from, probably from that fake tweet from another thread. Before we start the outrage about a rehydration limit, how about we find out some facts like what Kovalev's fight night weight is recently. If it's near 190, then a 10lb limit for 2nd day AM weigh in would be reasonable wouldn't it?

        I'm hoping there is no rehydration limit for the record, but we need to gather some facts before we continue the discussion.

          Would you be able to find a video where he said this or a website link? I've been looking for this information recently.

              I’m sure a hater would hate on the fight in either scenario
              we will have to discredit every ibf championship fight by that logic...
              hope there isnt one...

                    I’ve made no attempt to discredit him. All I want to know are the facts surrounding the fight

                    The praise being thrown around, justifiably, is because Canelo is daring to move up, and beat the reigning LHW champion in his division. Any catchweight or rehydration crap totally dampens that, making it a pointless fight.

                    But a part of me wants to believe Canelo isn’t messing around, and so far from looking for something to discredit, I actually want to give respect
                    This is better than beating David Diaz at 135, or winning a bogus Light Welterweight title against plasterless Margarito at 150. I used to hate Canelo 10 years ago when he was starting to make a name for himself, but he lived up to his hype by beating several future hall of fame boxers.
