      Knew Kovalev could not take it anymore, but during the fight I had hope. Retirement time

              Can’t stand canelo. Kovalev fought like he was the smaller man.

                Canelo needs to forget about 175 and go back to 160

                  Hope Kovalev is ok. That looked like some head trauma. Hopefully not. Strange fight though

                    I like Canelo and I wanted him to win but it’s clear he’s roiding. There is no way he isn’t. I’m a fan but cmon now. One punch???

                      Let's start the scoring..
                      1-0 Kov due to activity. Canelo landing a few nice shots to get Kov's attention. Feeling out round.
                      1-1 Canelo, very close could go either way. Canelo landeda few really good shots, while Kov's jabs were mostly blocked. Canelo's had a ton of practice with blocking jabs w G and Danny.
                      2-1 Kov. Canelo landed a few nice catchy shots, but most of the round was dominated by Kov. Got a few good counters in as well. He's throwing a LOT of punches though.
                      2-2 Canelo. Asserting dominance through timing.
                      3-2 Kov. Close round, both guys missing a ton of punches. Kov wins through activity. I like buddy giving Kov breathing exercises.
                      3-3 Canelo. Canelo with really nice counters. Kovalev landing nothing, output slowing down. His jabs are losing steam, a lot of feeling out shots.
                      4-3 Kov. Higher activity. Canelo lands some nice counters, but most of them do not have power behind them. Can't win rounds through 5 showboating punches without power in them. Gotta start wondering when Kov's stamina will start becoming an issue?
                      5-3 Kov. Canelo took the round off. Crowd boos Nelo, commentators mention it. Looks like Canelo is letting Kov tire himself out. Doesn't look like it's working so far. If you asked me before the fight will Kovalev throw 600 punches by round 9 and be Ok? I'd say not a chance.
                      6-3 Kov. Canelo really not doing much. Kov lands a good straight right, shame he didn't put all the power behind it. Canelo hits the body occasionally. Kov being VERY responsible with his body so far. Energy levels of both fighters are good.
                      7-3 Kov. Canelo doing nothing until last 30 seconds. Gets Kov against the ropes, hits 2 nice shots eats a right hand back. Kovalev doing good work so far. No power used by him though. Neither guy shows any damage at all. Canelo needs a KO in my book.
                      Canelo KO through a great 2 punches that Kovalev completely missed. Got dazed on top of the head, followed with a nice left hook, and then obliterated a fighter who was out on his feet.

                      When I think about this, this is VERY similar to how Kov did against the other Alvarez, Eleider. He was boxing well, before letting a few punches through and not recovering.
