So your acting like a fight is unfair unless the other fighter has at least 3-4 mos & as if nobody does that anymore..etc.etc.etc. yet it was Kovalevs exact quote way before the fight was signed where he says"I fight much better with like 2 mos between fights so I don't balloon up then have to make weight again,I told my promoter to try getting me as active as possible but normally thats not possible." After Yarde he said"I barely took any damage vs Yarde & am happy to go right back into camp,2 mos is perfect for me at this stage because I feel great & didn't have to heal because Yarde didn't do any damage"
You're acting like Yarde hitting Kovalev 8 more times than he did Yarde in rd 8 somehow has any bearing on how long he needed despite Yarde Literally doing no visible damage to Kov & despite him losing by huge margins in every other rd.
To top it off most fighters don't wait several mos for fights unless they're big named Champs already,most up & coming fighters or simply just title challengers are known for taking fights on very short notice.
Ruiz fought AJ 1 mo. & 11 days before AJ,& he faced a literal giant dimitremko before AJ who hit him way more than Yarde who barely did anything besides 1 rd.
Korobov took the charlo fight where he was robbed with a weeks notice despite having fought at lhw fight before. Theres tons more examples I won't even both find,but bottom line is Kovalev was going to be kod by Canelo with any amount of rest.
Ggg announced rolls fight like 5 weeks out,did 3 weeks vada testing & made it at a cw that benefits him rather than Rolls. He dragged Vanes outta 2 yrs retirement & up to 160 with like a week or 2 notice ffs,but it only matters to you that Canelos every opponent isn't allowed to come in at hw without at least being slowed down the tiniest bit for a fight at midnight basically & have every conceivable advantage imaginable?(on top of the countless advantages they already have that are much more important)
It doesn't matter that Canelo had knee surgery & has been fighting with leg brace nor that hes Literally the smallest lhw champ in many countless yrs?
