They Kept it Lowkey for a Reason... In Fact, from What REED's Finding Online, the 1st Guy to Report On it was ESPN's Dan Rafael...ESPN Has Been Busy Hyping Masvidal-Diaz All Week, Which Will Be an ESPN PPV... Knowing there's Competing Shows Tomorrow, it Behooved DAZN, Canelo and Golden Boy to Remain Silent About the Clause, but it Also Could Behoove ESPN that Rafael Reported This... REED
Plus a rehydration clause for Clenelo's benefit is hilarious considering the cheating prick was a light heavyweight in-ring when he was fighting at Jr. Middleweight
I was skeptical at first when this fight was being seriously being considered. Figured it would be a catch weight. Instead they found something else.
That's like different and stuff. You have to understand. Clenelo needs to be comfortable. He's been diagnosed with uncomfortablitis by a doctor employed by Golden Boy. Not acknowledging this debilitating disease is bigotry.
185lbs wont be difficult for kovalev to stay under for 20 more hours or whenever the second weigh in is
8AM if REED's Not Mistaken and Easy for YOU to Say...Did YOU Need 3 Attempts to Make '75 Earlier Today???... REED Doesn't Quite Recall When the IBF Instituted Mandatory Rehydration Clauses, but ASSuming Kovalev was Subject To Them, it's Been MORE than 2 Years, 2 KO Losses and the Exposure of his Glass Body, Since He's Had to... An IBF Title Isn't Even @ Stake Tomorrow Night... REED Hopes You're Right About it Not Being Difficult, But Even if Kovalev is GAME, it'll Basically Be a "So What" Win for Canelo... REED
Id be more concerned with the two KO losses kovalev suffered rather than this second weigh in when rating how good of a win it would be for alvarez.
There's No Positive Spin to Apply, Either Way... That Said, Kovalev was Stopped by Legit Light Heavy's, Dudes 6ft or Taller, Walking Around High 190's-Low 200's...But In This Case he's Being Blatantly WEAKENED to Accommodate a Motherfucker Moving Up 2 Divisions... REED
The spin is already pre-written. Guy moves up in weight two times in his career to face great champions who were also heavy punchers and avoided by most others in the division. Years prior as a young kid he put his undefeated record on the line against the #1 P4P fighter in the sport and fought him close. If a more complete story was told I would wear out the <shift> and 8 on my keyboard.
If the IBF belt was at stake then I wouldn't have been mad at this re-hydration clause tbh. But it's not, so Kovalev worked himself into a shoot
No one gonna watch this shit. So stupid putting it up against UFC 244.... BMF belt on the line mother fuckers
DAZN unbelievably amateurish right now... Brian Kenney belongs in a studio, he's not a blow-by-blow guy The referee has made a meal out of this ... what a terrible waste of time... nobody gives a fuck about women's boxing
