    Better than Caleb where Bivol it feels that he has a chance to win as long as he is not drained.

          Bivol is better than caleb but it needs to be at 175.

            That's why I said that, and the recent history of doing it just 6 weeks or less before fights. Maybe Plant and team didn't feel comfortable with that arrangement.

                  If he takes Bivol at 175lbs then that opens the door for Beterbiev, and I can’t see Canelo wanting that. I’m cdn and I think Nelo still has a good shot vs Arthur. I don’t like catch weights. But if Bivol at 175lbs leads to a Beterbiev fight I’m all for it. Bivol has a good Jab at his best but I’m not crazy about him. Nobody looks at him and says that’s the style I want to fight like. No surprise getting a Plant fight done is hard. They left him for last which gave him leverage. I’m sure PBC won’t risk their belt without having guaranteed fights afterwards.

                    I see a bait and switch coming. Maybe Hearn will announce Lemieux tomorrow.

                      Hes a GIANT compared to little canelo. Im not sure. Canelo was planing on fighting at 168. Probably have to stick to it. HE WILL FIGHT Beterbiev at 175 though. I applaud Bivol for being the only boxer ive seen in the last few years (and not over the hill) that would step up.
                      I actually think Bivol is a tuffer matchup. His natural gifts are canelos natural weaknesses.
