I doubt I will even go back and score it...it was a good fight but not extremely exciting...Nelo was landing the better shots, seemingly, in a lot of those rounds...but I feel Kovalev was scoring points throughout a lot of those rounds...just from watching it I could see how it was fairly even at the time of stoppage, or I can see Kovalev up a couple rounds...6-4 Kov was probably where I had it if the rounds matched up to my memory.
Bar is so low for Canelo to get rounds

Yeah, Beterbiev would be a very tough match up for him and I think Bivol is a good fight but another tough fight for him. I want to see how he would do against someone like Plant who could move himself and box while having enough activity to win the slower rounds.Yeah it was a good fight...I agree that he was landing the better shots in some of those rounds, but was still getting more or less outworked imo...but that can make for close rounds...he was definitely in the fight before the KO, no doubt about it.
I would like to see Canelo vs some of those top guys at 168...I still think Beterbiev and some of the others at 175 may be a little too much for him to make a career out of...will be interesting to see what he does from here.Comment

Yeah he's got some good options...him vs Plant would be interesting, if a little boring...I like Canelo but if he is at least competitive there is no way he is losing a decision to anyone, so even if Plant has some success I just can't see Plant winning that one.
To be fair thought it is hard for me to see anyone 175 and below KOing Canelo, absent Beterbiev...so in that regard Nelo has some good options...with his bouncing around in weight and good options from 160-175, just hoping he doesn't hurt himself with the weight changes, and has some more good years with good fights.Comment
