Comments Thread For: Canelo's Trainer Hits Back at Claims That Kovalev Fight Was Fixed

[Boxing Goat]

It was fixed to win on the cards and he just came up with a KO. It was fixed just like several other Canelo fights. There's no excuse as to why so many have him losing in numerous fights only to have only two to three judges seeing it differently than even others at ringside. The draw on one card with FMJ, who completely humiliated him start to finish is perfect proof! He may have won one rd. that Floyd took off based only on activity because he never even cornered or hit Floyd! It cannot be a fluke when it happens over and over again. It's done to keep the money train rolling. All I can say for that bunch is that at least Canelo has a proven chin.

Or he will move on to Andrade and Charlo doe

Unlikely since there's been recent talks of Canelo's next opponent being Billy Joe Saunders

Good Question why so tight b-2-b

But, it's TOO LATE NOW. "Possibly" Kov. could of WON. TOO LATE NOW. NEVER BE A REMATCH. KOV. should stop talking it he will soon look pathetic.
He really will fight again??
Betterbiev is better commodity th as n one poster here is giving credit. The other LH I am unsure about so far.
Callum Smith a good opp. Vs Floyd "easy". FM don't want that he shouldn't. "Hurrah" he got him first time. That was very risky fight and he made Canelo look silly.
Out of here. Work to do on my own EMPIRE!

Yeah that’s the rumor

Canelo is approaching a level of greatness that awaits him when he retires!

Most of the greats had this stigma that they cherry picked or had fixed fights or just lots of criticism!

Canelo is on the right path, if no one says anything then he’s not doing anything!

Saunders is next who’s in his prime and undefeated but we’ll hear the next list of excuses like Saunders only fought for the money as if Andrade or Beterbiev wouldn’t fight Canelo for the money either I mean they’re called prizefighters for a reason!

based on what you've seen from Saunders over the past 2 yrs, where would you rank him as far as bring a threat to Canelo in comparison to andrade, Charlo, plant, callum smith, benavidez bivol and beterbiev? Personally, I consider him the weakest option of the bunch and without a doubt the weakest champion at 168. Which would generate understandable criticism, just like his fight with Kovalev deserved criticism based on age, wear and tear and the short turn around.

The fight was a fix. Find the KO round on Youtube and set the Youtube settings playback speed to 0.25. You will see Kov pulling back his punches and deliberately missing, like the fight was a training session. He never threw a punch with intent the whole night.

It's so obvious, open your eyes you'll see it...Canelo's team paid for Kovalev's belt, going into the fight everyone knew this was nothing more than a weak sparring session...During the delay of the fight, Kov looked like he could sleep on the locker room couch then came out and fought like he was sleeping while Buddy Mcgirt was drunk...

Eyes are wide open, you just need to take off that tin foil hat and simply give credit where it's due. You won't though just keep trying to spread that fake news, only fellow r**ards like yourself would believe that nonsense.

If you can use steroids to get a benefit, if you can have numerous 'questionable' scorecards go in your favour chances are they wouldn't think twice about fixing a fight. It's been happening for a long time, there is just a an aura around Canelo since he got with Oscar he has ruined his reputation as a fighter. He is most definitely a protected guy.

[Monzon99]

One of the most obvious fixes of all time. Motives were there (old fighter at the end, two female assault victims to pay off, vulnerable to accept a bribe payoff to lose to the money fighter). The half hearted performance. And then the post fight quotes basically confessing he threw the fight. Canelo team is panicking and desperate to do damage control. The fix was so obvious and so poorly executed, Canelo and team are desperately trying to convince you this counterfeit fight was real.

It was not.
