Comments Thread For: McGirt: If Kovalev Gets Robbed, Whole World Will See It

[Jab jab boom]

28 y/o Rocky is given big props for beating up shot 37 y/o Joe
29 y/o Nelo moves up and fights a 35 y/o champ and Nelo is a cherry picker....

honestly, nobody outside of white people who hold onto marciano like Jesus, really gives him credit for beating an old Joe Louis. So bringing up an excuse from decades and decades ago to defend Canelo fighting a slew of 35 and older fighters is lame. Canelo has been very strategic in his opponent selection, especially after getting the generous decsison over Lara. He prefers his biggest name opponents to be 35 and over and any fighter who he takes on that is around his age pretty much is trash like Khan, Smith, Chavez Jr, and fielding. The only exception to that in the past 5 yrs has really been jacobs.

..........

why aren't Golovkin fans excited about his upcoming fight with Sacramento?

oh, right... because they are too busy criticizing Canelo for jumping TWO divisions to fight Kovalev loooool

Some sort of video-replay ref is involved in almost every other top international sport, the answer seems obvious to us as fans.
But will Promoters and Sanctioning Body's ever agree on and implement a system that may disadvantage their favourite cash-cows?

Instant replay has saved so many games and plays/blown calls. I don’t know how a sport can do without it. Then there’s boxing, with no replay available for judges/refs, and it suffers miserably because of that. It’s something that would have to be implemented by athletic commissions, not promoters or sanctioning bodies. Or it would have to be implemented by a superstar boxer like Mayweather started the blood tests for big fights. Canelo, Wilder or Joshua will have to be the pioneers of that. These boxers have to step their game up.

Wonder what he'd be saying if Nelo was his fighter......

[Curtis Harper]

I think this is the reason why Canelo was hated, because there are judges who is helping him to get a win he doesnt deserve. It also doesnt help that he believes he really did win and made him feel a diva at times (Caneloweight, remember).

Granted he really is a warrior, fighting anyone.

Every fighter who was gifted a win feel they won that fight. Every last one of them

29 y/o Nelo chasing greatness

Is there already an assigned ref or judge?



Man, imagine Tony Weeks and Adalaide Byrd getting that call.

I'm not even Joking, Tony Weeks was considered an option for this fight... seriously. But Kov's team protested so they gave them an even worse ref: Russell Mora. The one who allowed Mares to lowblow Agbeko all night.
