got the same feeling during this fight that I got during Margarito/Cotto 1 except with kkkov landing clean less than Cotto did. Canelo built up the pressure perfectly, nikkas will call it a dive and talk ggg but they won't talk Canelo adding yet another facet to his game and showing his constant improvement as a fighter. Personally I don't think a drop back to 160 is that drastic go down there and clean out all these dudes who been talking.

kovalev didnt take a dive....im quick to criticize things as i see fit and there was plenty of that from the time this fight was announced

but he got ko'ed legit...if you watched him vs anthony yarde you knew time was up...and it was a short turnaround from that shyt...it all compounded from there

All these nyggas said he was MUCH BETTER challenge than Andrade and Charlo though...the guy who went life and death with green Yarde and had been fundamentally changed by the Ward losses. Interesting.

Canelo power confuses me. He clearly has but his stamina takes it away or he doesn't set it up at times and was more tentative

Yeah caught him right behind/on the ear, Clearly wasn't a blocked punch. That coupled with Kovalev likely not fully recovered from the Yarde fight equals night night.

Canelo showed more improvements and showed he's smarter than GBP too :wow:

You think Andrade woulda beat Kovalev, Let alone have the testicular fortitude to step in the ring with him?

canelo can fight and this victory was impressive moving up to light heavyweight to get victory.

I still dont think he should try to fight andre ward tho
