Comments Thread For: Bivol's Promoter: The Canelo Fight Has Been Mentioned To Us, It's a Great Test

I am not sure what boxrec has to do with jabs.

I can only go by what I saw.

Abel Sanchez, after the rematch, also said something similar. That GGG was not supposed to back off like that and just jab all night. He said the gameplan was to take the fight to Canelo. According to GGG’s own trainer, GGG changed the gameplan on his own in the ring. Went completely against what they trained and planned for. Pre-fight, GGG and Sanchez were telling anyone who listens: “Mexican style, big drama show”. Talking about they will mKe it a fight. Then GGG fought on the back foot all night. Lost clearly. So idk what fight his fans saw when his own coach said Canelo deserved the win and GGG did not fight as they trained. Fans know more than a fighter’s coach I guess.

Trip G lost a close, fun fight in the rematch. I saw what you did. Golovkin threw a ton of jabs, and did very little else. He was landing often, and did wobble the legs of Alvarez late in the fight. It was competitive. But Alvarez threw more varied punches, had Trip G on the ropes more, and threw more than one at a time. Alvarez won. There is a case to be made for Golovkin, but there is a stronger case for Alvarez. And Sanchez absolutely said everything you said he did. Good enough for me, as Sanchez handled the loss like a pro while Golovkin handled like a child.

I think we all can agree, or at least open minded people can, that Golovkin was likely robbed of his career defining win in the first fight.

I'm leaning that way too. But Canelo is too prideful and might fight him against his own instincts. Beterbiev is the one I'm sure of Canelo not fighting. Beterbiev is a heavyweight on fight night and would take Canelo's head off, unless Canelo's usual stipulations drain him to skeleton. Bivol is the more skilled one of the two tho.

Honestly a Tank Davis fan should never dare to say that Canelo is avoiding anyone.

Davis has taken the easy road and managed not to fight any of the killers in and around his weight class, such as Lomachenko.

That's your opinion. I couldn't disagree more. Davis ducks nobody. Keep watching.

Would definitely watch this fight.

Where are these articles on Canelo asking for a 22foot ring for Plant? See below

It was literally pointed out in multiple articles in this subject that Canelo asked for and got a 22 by 22 ring.

Up to now he hasn't fought the best opponents.

Floyd tried to match him with Lomachehko but he started crying.

Instead Teofimo stepped up, beat Lomachenko, and gained all the shine that Tank was too afraid to reach for.

I don't know about all that.

But we'll see how he handles things now.

Because now he has a belt at 130 and 140 (regular). So, there is no excuse to either a) not fight Taylor to upgrade the regular title or b) not fight Diaz jr, Valdez, or Herring.

135, the "killers" I imagine you are alluding to, still has a lot of politics going on. Specially with the Lomachenko-Lopez rematch issue, Teofimo delaying Kambosos, and Haney in talks with Diaz Jr. after going back and forth, disrespectful af, on twitter.

Ryan is irrelevant. He's not counted in the boxing landscape to me. Not after ducking out of negotiations after calling out Tank, to fight a silly ass "exhibition" with Pacquiao. Then when that fell through, to duck his mandatory Fortuna, citing "mental health" concerns but staying on social media the whole "hiatus". Dude made himself irrelevant.

Any proof of rejected offers? Floyd didn't try ****. All he wanted was to control Gervonta, and Floyd acted like a ***** when he didn't get his way.

Blame promotions for why he hasn't fought those guys.

Before all the politics you mention Tank could have fought Lomachenko and tried to go for the glory that Teofimo ended up getting instead.

But he didn't have the stones to do it.

If a guy wants to be safety first that is his choice. But his fans shouldn't have the gall to criticize someone with the resume of Canelo.

Lol. “Started crying.”
