Seems like most think Canelo should win easy or comfortably like he did against Plant.
I see this as an almost 50-50 fight Bivol has all the skills Plant had ontop of the power that Plant didn't.
Bivol is an ridiculously dangerous fight. No one else is doing stuff like this. Boxing fans are the worst.
Bivol should be favored. Canelo may have bitten more than he can chew. No shame if he loses.

Well, I think this is a tuff fight for both of them. That said, Canelo has
been fighting the best since he was 20. Bivol has not fought the talent that Canelo has faced. Only man that gave Canelo a boxing lesson was Mayweather. Bivol is NO Mayweather. I lean towards Canelo but it’s a tuff fight.
Haters gotta hate.
What Canelo has done recently is pretty incredible.
Beating Bivol would be pretty incredible.
Disclaimer - I'm certainly not a huge Canelo fan, the drugs thing is too shifty for me. But what he's done and beating Bivol, can't be denied as pretty amazing... Unless you're a troll or hardcore hater.
Alvarez opponents are under par, but none of this is his fault. Caleb Plant, Billy Joe Saunders, do you guys really think those fighters would beat Joe Calzaghe & Carl Froch? I don't, they would be beat down and sparked out badly.
Canelo Alvarez is doing his job, and exposing the level of his opponents. In no other era, would he be able to yo yo up and down in weight. If Alvarez was active in the 90's or early 2000's 'I think he would of stayed in the Middle Weight - Super Middle Weight Divisions' If he decided to play around upwards of 175 pounds, he would be of been beaten by Multiple fighters.
And I don't think Alvarez head to head would be able to beat Joe Calzaghe, Carl Froch, Chris Eubank Senior, Nigel Benn, and a few more Middle Weights.
I am by no means, discrediting Canelo Alvarez. He is a great fighter, one of the greatest fighters of this era. Alvarez is probably ranked number 1 or 2 pound for pound 'But I just do not rate the level of ability displayed in this era of boxing, in the Middle Weight to Light Heavyweight Divisions'.
Caleb Plant & Billy Joe Saunders, skill for skill are superior fighters to Bivol. The only attributes Bivol has over them is, strength, durability and possibly punching power.
The way it works is before Canelo fights a guy he’s scared of him and that guy is underrated.
Then after he signs to fight him he’s cherry picked bum and now becomes overrated.
