Comments Thread For: Kovalev: Canelo is a Real Fighter - Not Like Andre Ward!

[Boxing_1013]

Sh.it haven’t watched that fight in years

I had Hagler getting the clear win / Don’t remember wwhat I scored it but Think Leonard was given too much credit for late flurries and stealing rounds he didn’t deserve , Could be wrong though , It’s been at least 6-8 years since I watched it TBH

OK got ya...yeah lol I had that as clear for SRL when I watched it for the first time...don't think I have watched it more than twice and not in a while.

Usually I tend to favor the aggressive fighter but I thought SRL fought a great fight that night...Floyd another guy for me who could win clear rounds while not always being the aggressor.

I hear ya man, good points...in general I just try to score the close rounds 50-50...I do feel though that some guys can do a great job of snagging close-but-clear rounds...almost always it seems like those guys were great amateur fighters...Floyd was very good at that, and one the best current guys at doing that imo is BJS.

I didn't think he schooled Lemieux in the sense that he won every second of every round, but he imo won maybe every round by a few points and just did a great job of leaving me at the and of the round saying - 'yeah that was BJS round'...Andrade seems like that kind of guy from what I have seen as well.

I at least try to be neutral with it...I was probably rooting for Fury vs Wilder, but I thought the first 6 rounds were 3-3...they were tense rounds imo, neither guy really landing much, Fury maybe a couple more per round but often times Wilder the bigger punch or punches of the round in those 6.

Some had Loma beating Linares badly before the stoppage...I had it even...I had Campbell and Loma pretty even through 8 rounds or so as well...idk I just think I can tell when a guy is really in a fight, and when he is coasting...Floyd would coast imo, BJS can coast, Andrade can coast...Loma can, but not in those fights etc.

Anyway good talking man, I am sure we would agree on other things! lol

I agree with with most of your points on this one. I appreciate the unbiased debate. We'll get at it again on some later articles on here. Catch you around.
