Does Kov box well punching down at a much smaller guy? Kov is big strong, consistant.... however i feel Canelo defense is under rated and will play a big part, Kov has a persistent nightmare of a jab but I dont think its got the snappy speed required to keep canelo off, each time kov misses canelo will step inside and rip 4-5 shots to head and body which eventually will take there toll in the later part of the fight. I think canelos defense will shine most in this fight. Still a tough night for both guys, and Canelo will have to be on his game every minute of every round.

Had no problem finding Pascal.

it should definitely make kovalevs punches feel much more heavier and stronger because of gravity.also will help with stamina because punching down is less exhausting as punching up (like canela will have to do) because of gravity again.

canela getting beat up bad in this. he won't be the same fighter after the beating he will sustain plus moving back down.

Well its safe to say u got that severely wrong. Lol. It was kov who admitted to gettin tyred so guess all that gravity didnt work in his favour.. canelo walks away unmarked unscathed... no 1 can say it was a gift decision... he sparked kov out. Closed the book on him. So much for being damaged goods after this fight ey. Overall bar the result it was a pretty dull affair
