Immediately after the bout, many fight fans started asking Kovalev on social media about why he allegedly took a dive. The former champion answered via several videos on his Instagram page,:[1]
"It was impossible for me to win that fight because of all the demands and contract clauses I have signed, and my physical conditioning problems. But financially it was very interesting for me... so, yeah, I accepted the fight I was not supposed to win."[2]
Álvarez responded by calling Kovalev a "bad loser".[3]
The fight was streamed live on DAZN in the United States and nine other countries, televised on both FTA Azteca 7inMexico and Channel OneinRussia.[4][5]
According to the Nevada State Athletic Commission, Álvarez earned an official purse of $35 million and Kovalev a $3 million purse. These figures are the final figures they will earn as Canelo has a subscription deal which means no potential PPV revenue.[22]
