    “I can make 168 for Canelo.” -Bivol

    it means that if Bivol wasn’t draining for 175 then he can hit
    168 and look depleted just like GGG would in all his 160 fights. The best part is that if it’s a catch, Bivol doesn’t have to keep his promise of making 168 easy!

      A-side demands, they make them because they can. I don't believe Canelo's team are avoiding Plant. We've only heard one side of the story as of yet, Canelo's people haven't said anything. If they have, my apologies.

      It's been a week or two since the Plant negotiations failed? They were pressed for time already being 7/8 weeks away from September 18th. Now there's even less time to prepare, so it makes sense to push the date back. I just don't want a repeat of the Kovalev fight and a catchweight makes it worse.

          Like when Canelo said he could make 152 to fight Mayweather

            Sorry boys, that date aint moving, weight could fluctuate. Not much but some. Canelo was preparing for a 168 pound fight. Cant just drop everything to a accommodate, ESPECIALLY when your the champ.

              It would make sense if their existence on the $40 mil guarantee wasn't because that date was so important. It's obvious now that the date wasn't that important & if they could push it back for Bivol & $25 mil they coulda pushed it back for Plant & $40 mil

                The date is important because it's on the weekend of Mexican independence day (sept 16)

                Canelo always wants to have a big fight on mexican holidays sept 16 and Cinco de Mayo

                it makes it all more marketable

                    Canelo gives Bivol the favor to go above 168. Lol. Told you guys.

                    i said this for 2 years. If Bivol clambered about making 168, then why not give Canelo your belt at a catch since it benefits Bivol more than 168. They begged for Bivol at 168, and now call it “draining” when Bivol wouldn’t have to sacrifice more water.
                    A short notice for a fight of this magnitude is bullsh.it, PERIOD. Bivol said hed fight Saul at 168 and i have no problem with it. But a short notice is mos def a bit.chmove if Saul doesnt give him that. In the end, i wouldnt be mad at Bivol if he turned it down. If your boy wasnt such a diva itd be different. This didnt happen to dlh, may, pac or even cotto.

                      You think the 40 million he was offered Haymon would stick fighting on a later date? I thought that figure was dependant on Mexican Independence Day.
