Sergey Kovalev v Anthony Yarde

[powerpuncher]

Also, when a fighter calls another fighter out like this, I just feel that they know something we don’t. Kovalev of 4-5 years ago would destroy Canelo. He was in his prime and just too good. Now, I think Canelo sees that he has slowed and is no longer so aggressive. He is much more gun shy but can still get hit.

I actually doubt that Canelo is really that much smaller than Kovalev. Their weights probably won’t be that much different. The one thing that Canelo needs to watch out for is that he has fought some big punchers in his career and has been able to withstand those shots. The problem is that almost all fighters eventually wear down from that. Kovalev could take years off of Canelo’s fighting career even if Canelo wins. Kovalev is just a big puncher.

4 cards this weekend and I didn't watch a single fight. Have to say I think this whole app and some sub par streaming has taken me out of the routine of boxing fandom a bit. Sounds like Kovalev and Yarde did themselves proud and put on a helluva scrap. Glad Kovalev pulled it off and his consistent jab was a key factor. Haven't seen to much of Yarde but I don't mind a young talent ignoring step aside money and those concerned rolling the dice on their promise once in awhile. Consciousness and game plans you can regain but not a youth if spent wondering 'if only I would have'. Kovalev will get his lottery with Canelo but if CW is mentioned he should tell them to fook right off, but he won't. Those body shots don't bode well for him but. Canelo has never seen a jab quite like that either.

Not all. But in Canelo's case, absolutely.

Yes, and yes.

Now, I think Canelo sees that he has slowed and is no longer so aggressive. He is much more gun shy but can still get hit.

No "think" about it. It's a fact. The computer has spit out Kovalev's name as being ripe for the picking.

I actually doubt that Canelo is really that much smaller than Kovalev. Their weights probably won’t be that much different.

Bingo! It's the fact people are reluctant to mention, but it's always the white elephant in the room.

The one thing that Canelo needs to watch out for is that he has fought some big punchers in his career and has been able to withstand those shots. The problem is that almost all fighters eventually wear down from that. Kovalev could take years off of Canelo’s fighting career even if Canelo wins. Kovalev is just a big puncher.

Someone will eventually KTFO Canelo. Unfortunately that someone will not be Kovalev.

What if Yarde beats Kovalev?

I know you’re a betting man. I’ll bet you that Kovalev knocks him out in the 10th round

There's more chance of these "sticky freak" mods unsticking their dead fightnight threads than that happening.
