Kovalev is the new star maker

[megh50]

Victories over Oscar made Hopkins, Mayweather and Pacquaio superstars. Now it seems fighting Kovalev has made Ward and Canelo pfp #1s.

Only if you make Ward and Canelo number 1 pfp for beating Kovalev and I never did that. Canelo needs to beat a better fighter who actually tries to win for me to rate him the world's best boxer. Like Beterbiev or Bivol. I never thought Ward was the best either. To each his own.

nope, Ward was #1 P4P before he fought Kovalev

and it is not uncommon for a guy who jumps TWO divisions and WINS, to get recognition

True. Forgot about him. But he did get a good deal with Top Rank off of it

Happens in the sport. You become a star, the guys who beat you ride on your star. Not any mystery to it. Happens in hollywood when people do films together.
That said, Canelo was a MUCH bigger star going into this.
