I wasn't all that surprised about Kovalev's game plan and how he fought. He took a similar approach against Yarde and on the Alvarez rematch too. Basically, that's what their tactic was with McGirt in all 3 of their fights so far.
Use the jab a lot, be active but don't commit to all punches. McGirt knew Kovalev's main problem is his durability and stamina so he went with a tactic that minimalized exchanges and relied more on jabs and activity than big shots. Kovalev has a world-class jab and good fundamentals back from his amateur days so he could even make it work against good opponents like Alvarez or Yarde but it proved to be too few against Canelo.

Nah Liston was a mob fighter and that punch wasn't even landing hard. Liston took way stronger punches before from the likes of Cleveland Williams in his prime. The fix was in.
It was a quick punch he didn't see that landed right on the chin. Archie Moore landed a similar punch on Marciano if I'm not mistaken.

Ward should come out of retirement and fight Canelo

It's a huge fight :yeshrug:
Not only that, who the fukk throws a fight to get his head rocked like that with a clean ass right hand. Like why the fukk do people think a legit boxer would risk his health like that? :dahell: it's not like Kovalev was gonna win peanuts for this fight :dead:

lmao Michael B Jordan got legit KO'd in that Creed movie the first one and took the punch to make it look real for a movie lmao

dumb excuse, I can see why people say its fixed, Kovalev did nothing but throw pitty patter shots the entire time fight, in the post fight Canelo face is marked up just for them lil shots imagine if he was really hitting him, that shyt looked suspect we never seen Kovalev look like this

He could've easily gave up his chin when he turned into that right hand

I'm not saying its fixed, I just think he was already concussed from yarde fight and didn't recover, but I see why Badou Jack and Andrade feel that way

But you're never right... :dwillhuh:

I was wright about Manny and Floyd I said would be as it was

Was right about Mcgregor KOing Aldo in the first round exactly

What was right about Woodly beating Wonderboy

What was right about Erroll Spence being a way better boxer than Mikey Garcia

you exposing yourself as emotional hater, please if you can't have real conversations don't reply to me I'm not gonna back and forth with you girls I don't respect you

What you mean another last fight I predicted was Spence destroying Garcia

who are you? Get off my dikk and find something to do

if you can't give me my props when I right don't comment when I'm wrong, thats bytch shyt

I only got two fights wrong I predicted on here
You also said pac would get destroyed by Thurman and porter would get destroyed by spence. Now you said canelo would be easy work for kovalev. That's 3 major fights in a row:huhldup:.......it's ok to be wrong. The problem is you make excuses after the fact instead of owning up to it. Said canelo would get dominated now you on some "b b but kovalev was still damaged from the yarde fight" :sadcam:........I wouldn't have said shyt if you weren't in here coppin pleas. You were wrong. Just accept it and let it be.

I was wrong about The Manny and Thurman fight, thats it

Spence beat Porter what are you talking about, plus I wasn't even around for that fight I was in the bushes

Canelo didn't destroy Kovalev, he ain't do shyt until he landed that chopping right hand lmao

what are you talking about

Thurman ain't got pop in the right hand anymore because of Danny fukking up his elbow, couldn't foresee that

Kovalev looked like complete dog shyt, he didn't look that bad against yarde, couldn't forsee that

I can admit that

why you acting like a bytch

These are facts, Thurman ain't the same, Kovalev was on ice skates from the sound of the bell, even his clinching looked weird like he didn't have his feet up from under him, everyone could see Kovalev did not have a good performance

if Kovalev looked like normal and Canelo KO'd people will have all the praise in the world for Canelo, but Kovalev didn't even throw one power punch the entire fight come on now

Center self, inner self
A lot of people adamant about hating Canelo that's why, he is one of the if not the most divisive boxer now. It's ludicrous. Kovalev went down unconscious, he took a big ass punch.
Those who are adamant on that theory are either just proved that they are unreasonable haters or that they don't have a clue how a fix looks like.

Even boxers are saying it so what’s the excuse with them, they’ve boxed are they exposed

Andrade and Eubanks both said something looked fishy but we biased

Still P4P number 1 by the way


Lot of people would rather chop off one of their arms than admitting they were wrong or give props to the guy the deeply hate, so we have these guys making complete fools out of themselves which is really worse for them but they can't get over their ego. :mjlol:

Who? Morons on twitter?

Thats cause we deep in this social media era where its nothing but groupthink sheeps spreading narratives around like an STD.. A bunch of MeToo-esque individuals that cant formulate their own thoughts to save their mother's life.. shyt is disgusting.. 98% of anybody calling it a dive heard someone else call it a dive first now they running with it :scusthov:

Trout, someone who actually fought Canelo, also said it looked like a dive. My theory on life is if more than 2 people say the same thing, then there is a high possibility that it is true.

I'm not saying it was a fix. You can't consciously hit the stanky leg like that; that's all reflex. I will say the whole situation looks suspect. This fight was purely a ploy to get Canelo up to p4p #1, and it worked.

Sorry but i can't respect a fighter of Canelo's skill level who cherry picks like this.
