Kovalev is 36 which happens to be the same age Floyd was when he beat Canelo.
But that has zero to do with the fact that K9valev is a shell of his former self.
This is a cherry pick to get another belt
So was picking a smaller 36 year old Floyd a cherry pick?
What the hell are talking about.
It was a good call to take the Mayweather fight. It was a ton of money.
Kovalev is pictured as the weakest of the light heavy champs. Just like the bogus WBA minor super middle title.
You were the one bringing up Mayweather which Canelo was damn near shut out in

Hall of fame is for career achievement. One fight does not a career make.

His career is already hall of fame worthy.
But this is just a title grab against the seemingly easiest belt holder

Interesting how such a big win seems yet so expected and straight forward looking at odds and predictions

Except when that one fight is combined with all his 55 other bouts.

That's why the most popular poll choice is "he's already EARNED a spot in HOF & this fight is just icing on the cake."
