they can only fight one guy at a time. both roy & canelo dropped back down again to take on guys that are considered near the top of their divisionsQuote:

Doesn't matter that Bivol nor Beterbiev haven't fought Kovalev. What matters is that Canelo chose to go after Kovalev only after he'd gotten Bambi'ed by Andre Ward (of all people) and then for good measure gotten KO'ed by Eleider Alvarez. Staying with the "meat" analogy... let's just say Kovalev had gotten tenderized ahead of the Canelo fight.
And not to mention that it was the fishiest high level fight I’ve seen. Ive heard different conspiracies of fights over the years but never believe them. Kovalev literally never threw a hard punch the entire fight. He basically only threw weak jabs. I didn’t think that Canelo would be able to take his punch because he hit so hard and was big, but Kovalev literally never threw a hard punch the entire fight which is so unlike him. Every punch he throws is heavy except in the Canelo fight where none were heavy.Quote:
