Comments Thread For: Team Kovalev: We Got The Fight We Wanted, Money We Wanted

[Real King Kong]

Kovalev wasn't about to cancel the fight in Russia. Tickets were already on sale in his hometown. He'd have to pay Yarde a fighter that doesn't even spar step aside. Apparently he would have to also compensate Russian broadcasters. He would be taking a big fianancial hit and end up fighting Canelo for a lot less. He wasn't about to burn his hometown fans and take a huge cut in his net to duck a fighter I'm sure he felt confident of beating.

Duva was still complaining about golden boy’s offer in July lol. They waited until weeks before the fight to put a serious offer together.

nobody is ignoring the fact that this is excellent timing, and possibly good matchmaking, from Team Canelo... it is still a very dangerous fight

we are talking about Kovalev

FACT: if Kovalev was cashing out, he would not have risked fighting Yarde

they would have simply taken that Canelo money

not sure why you NEEEEED to insist that Kovalev is cashing out, from one side of your face... but then admit that Kovalev would be a fool not to take that GREAT opportunity, and is still a very good opponent... from the other side of your face

why can't you g-strings just be happy... ?

oh, right... I forgot lol

You’re point makes no sense...why would I say kovalev shouldn’t take the opportunity if I say I feel like he’s cashing out?

Do you think it’s possible he decided after almost getting ko’d by a green nobody who doesn’t even spar, that maybe it’s time to go for that retirement package? I mean, they went straight back to canelo’s people and took the fight on short notice in a place where they didn’t want it for extra money. These things coupled with the fact that he’s 36 and clearly on the slide, gives this situation the optics of a cash out, no matter how much it upsets you.

no, I think he took a great opportunity when it presented itself

Kovalev did not roll over for Canelo, and he did not ignore his divisional obligations... they got offered the money they wanted, but it came too late... because they were too far along with the Yarde negotiation and too close to the deadline...

they did the right thing by Yarde, and then they took the Canelo opportunity

no idea why you neeeeed to insist that Kovalev is cashing out... ???

criticizing that fight will not improve Golovkin's resume

Criticizing that fight will point out the short prep time for it on Kovalev's part. The purpose of that initial offer was to keep Kovalev on the hook untill they figured out their next move depending how he faired in the Yarde fight. They wanted the Kovalev fight but on their terms. They had to know that Kovalev had to pay Yarde to step aside and meet other fianancial liabilities if the Yarde fight was cancelled. They got the short notice they wanted. Kovalev got the money he wanted that's why he agreed to take it ASAP.

But but he is fughin cashing out unless by some miracle he wins this fight

Why you still flip flopping over this
You picked Kovi to win then did a 180 when I said we could gamble on it
Now your talking highly of Canelo

Maybe you should start taking your medication and not the one for the female organs but the one for memory loss ( convenient memory loss )

I had this discussion with him already but to no avail
Then when I told him to gamble on it ( I would take cinnamon bun ) he refused and *****ed out
