    Does Bivol really pose a threat to Canelo?

    I've watched Bivol's last maybe 10 or so fights, and he is a good fighter, but I see nothing there whatsoever that troubles Canelo, and I'm talking at either 168 or 175. Canelo has more skill, a better chin, a better defence, and Canelo at 168 punches way harder than Bivol at 175. Yet, so many people are saying Bivol would beat him! How exactly? What are his advantages that are going to make the difference in him beating Peak Canelo? I'm laying down £5000 on Canelo to win if they fight.

    Beterbiev will smash Canelo, Bivol probably as well. Canelo can't handle the real smoke in that division that's why he cherry picked an over-stuffed and cracked Kovalev.

        Beterbiev absolutely does though.

          I agree on Beterbiev. That's one of my most wanted fights in boxing. Hopefully, that can happen in 2022.

            NOPE that style gets robbed all day VS Canelo! NO judge here in America is going to give Bivol a Decision over Canelo with that "boring style"

            You guys cry about Andrade being "boring" then WTF is Bivol and his decision wins for his last 5 Fights I'm just saying lets be fair here...if Andrade shouldn't get a shot because he is "Boring" then neither should Bivol

              yes he poses a huge threat which is why canelo ignores him. bivol knows how to masterfully use his height and reach, hes much faster than any of canelos opponents, can hit hard, solid defense and master footwork.

              bivol called out canelo at 168 or 175. and canelo ignores staying in a completely weak 168 division.

              only way canelo beats bivol is via robbery.
