The biggest question in this fight is how well Canelo can take Kovalevs punch. Canelo has definitely had his chin tested. He took big shots from GGG. Kovalev is a whole other animal though. We will see what happens.
Yeah, I have no questions about Canelo's chin either. To me the biggest question is Kovalev's durability. He's shown a tendency to wear out, especially when hit to the body which I'm sure Canelo and his team are well aware of. Whatever aura of invincibility Kovalev had was erased by his TKO loss to Ward in their second fight. Otherwise this fight would not be happening.
I probably forgot yes, he did take a few hard shots from Golovkin, yet he took them well, he rolled with the punches. So I can see why you he abover posts are saying they haven't a question about the chin. still Kovalev is bigger and badder and power is the last thing to go on a fighter and Kovalev has that in the bag just waiting to strike early for the upset. I'll bet the odds come out at 3-2 Canelo favor
About the body shots yes, the classical Mexican left hook to the liver may also end it all for the beaten up Kovalev as you said,
but durability point I have to disagree on it any man determined if professional caliber as Kovalev can whip himself into shape for durability on such a big night.
