Horrible feeling KOV is looking at this like his cash out fight.
I see him going behind on the cards and looking for a way out mid-late rounds.
Staying down from a bodyshot.

Aye Oscar will probably send a team of hookers to his hotel room on the eve of the fight to fist him. Mini bar door will be left open.....

Surprised to see Kovalev taking a selfie of himself and Canelo when they met ! On the way hand it was refreshing to see the mutual respect and warmth between them, on the other hand it sends alarm bells ringing that Kov knows what's in store come fight night.

An Andre Ward interview made his view very clear that the days of "Krusher" are long gone and it's now about what "Sergey" has left. Ward acknowledged his power but didn't play on it much at all because he said it takes so much more than that in top tier boxing. And was unimpressed with Sergey's strength.

It get's me thinking can Kovalev keep Canello off of him for 12 rounds and ride out the storms like last time against Yarde 12 rounds is a long time to keep the current version of Alverez at bay.

Ward lost many rounds to Kovalev, it wasn't just like Kov hurt him that once and that all Kov had was the power he showed in round 2 of the first fight. He's a fine boxer from outside as well. Alvarez also wasn't even stopping his world level opponents at 154 (it's a big jump to 175), though Kov does seem to be ragged these days and wonder how motivated he is for the W.
