Canelo is a top level fighter you don't want to be eating too many counters from. Kovalev in general isn't too hard to discourage for a world level fighter, I told you a few weeks ago he can't take shots upstairs when everyone was talking about the body.
Kovalev was winning anyway imo so 'staging' the fight by not fighting the way you wanted him to fight, was actually winning him the fight. Sometimes you just have to accept your L like a man and give ginger some credit.

Kovalev has been fighting for over 2 decades, I'm sure if it was easy as following some boxingscene poster's advice, he would do it.

these dudes are beyond pathetic, they hate Canelo so much they rather claim some damn conspiracy theory, throw the fighter they were rooting for under the bus than to man it up and just give Canelo his props.

Yo I dunno what to say. I really don't. I will be the first to tell people calling fights staged is corny. But I've watched this fight 3x and I dunno wtf I was watching. Everything just seems off. I've watched hundreds of fights and I've never seen a bigger guy fight scared of the smaller guy and virtually let himself be knocked out like that. Never seen it. Kovalev has never fought this way. Game plan or no, you ALWAYS revert to what you know sooner or later.
