    If you don't want to end your career like this, you're probably going to end it worse.

      I think he can still do well but probably not against the top tier guys like Beterbiev and Bivol (and obviously Smith). It's a shame he lost all that time as Stevenson's mandatory. He's long in the tooth and it gets harder as we age.

        Maybe feed him a prospect like Yarde? But I think Yarde will have too much power for him. Alvarez needs to go back and box, but he is still in love with his power.

          Just at the tail end of his career though right? It's almost like KO'ing Kovalev was simultaneously the best and worst thing that could have happened for him.
