Props to Bivol. he won decidedly. I wanna see Bivol vs Berterbiev and Smith winner but i guess we will get the rematch and the same outcome will happen.

175 is too big for Nelo and it showed.. should have stayed at 168 and 160..need to go back down. plus his stamina issues from earlier in the career showed up again last night.

and wtf is up with this site.. i can only post on firefox with noscript off.. mobile doesn't work at all
They ain't paid the bills.

Any competent 175er from the last 10 years would’ve did to Canelo what Bivol did .


Canelo simply bit off more than he could chew and a rematch would be more of the same .


This does not change the fact that GGG-Nelo 3 would be a wipeout and should not be made .


Go down to 168 and live there

The funny thing is DAZN was talking about the judging before the fight ended and Mannix was like "Well, the good news is this one of the best judging teams to have for a fight like this". Well thank god we didn't get a lesser team. The fukk :russ:
Canelo up 2 rounds before the fight happens, you damn near have to knock him out to win.

Bivol vs Beterbiev has the making of another Gvozdyk vs Beterbiev fight; which bread and butter will win eventually? Will Beterbiev power and gas tank wear Bivol down or will Bivol be able to avoid and/or take the power to box Beterbiev head off? We neeeeeed that match up

So why is that so many people had Canelo beating him easy??? Called the man a cherry pick and everything... was it just to downplay the victory in case Canelo won or was it that they don't understand how moving up divisions work or why we even have them

I don't agree with this, it was the boxing and footwork that gave canelo problems. Not many 175 lbers have the footwork and distance that bivol has. The power helps keep canelo at distance but it takes the footwork and placement to get there.

Dmitry Bivol beat Canelo for a few reasons. 72" arm reach, strong stiff jab, faster hands, much faster feet, solid defense, he knows how to position himself to minimize what is coming back at him, he is patient and fought his fight and didn't let Canelo dictate anything to him, he has good solid fundamentals, VOLUME PUNCHING, good power. Also it doesn't help that Canelo is so slow on his feet I don't even know if he could have cut the ring off on George Foreman.

After mentioning everything I just mentioned do you know another fighter who possesses all the qualities in spades and then some: Errol Spence Jr. If you want to say Canelo is bigger that is fine, but from STRICTLY A STYLISTIC STANDPOINT Spence is a matchup nightmare for Canelo, Spence attacks the body far more often than Bivol does. Like I said Canelo is the bigger guy so he should be favored due to size over Spence, but from a stylistic standpoint it is nowhere out the realm of possibility Spence couldn't do the exact same thing to Canelo.

If Plant had more punching power and better stamina his fight with Canelo would of been similar to this one. Plant was landing a lot of shots on Canelo, but they weren't phasing Cinnamon.
plant is weak like 7 days...giving him too much credit breh lol

Nah i don't agree with this, i never seen canelo gwt hit with so many flush shots in bunches like this in a long time. Bivol was catching and shooting all his body shots and returning with multiple combos in a row. There was one exhange bivol got like 6-7 straight flush shots on canelo. Plant wasn't getting 10+ hit rounds like this.

Some of it is probably because Bivol isn’t a sexy name and nikkas not really sitting down watching him box and some of it is that we’ve seen Canelo run through nikkas for years now so it’s just expecting more of the same .
