If he faced another lhw champ you'd be saying he ducked the other guys,if he picked Beterbieve youd say" it was because he was kd by a bumgvoz youd say hes scared of Beterbieve & vice versa. Youd also say kovs schooling of yarde scared him.
Therese difference between that & Beterbieve vs gvoz. You are so fvll of crap for acting like Kovalev was a cherrypick for nelo or as if it wasn't him fighting a still top lhw.
I would have much preferred Canelo took a fight against one of the many non-shop worn champions between 160 and 175 (Charlo,Andrade, Callum Smith, Caleb Plant, Dimitri Bivol, Artur Bieterbiev, Olyxander Gvosk etc.). I understand the business reasons why Kovalev was chosen but since none of us will see a dime from it I don't know why any of us would give a fu ck. I just want to see the best fight the best. While Kovalev/Canelo was an interesting matchup its far down the list of interesting matchups that could be made.
P.S: After a week or so of arguing with people about the Kovalev/Canelo fight I am of the opinion that the idea of this version of Kovalev was more interesting matchup for Canelo than the idea of a trilogy bout with GGG. Cherry pick as it was it was still a fresh matchup with a slight possibility of a KO loss for Canelo.
