Comments Thread For: Canelo's 2-Fight Deal With DAZN Done: Bivol On May 7, Golovkin On September 17

[eco1]

Toughest fight of Clenelo’s career. Mark my words this will be a cherrypick gone wrong for Alvaroids. Bivol made Joe Smith look like a D level fighter when they fought. Clenelo needs to bring in Adelaide Byrd and CJ Ross as a judge if he wants a chance of winning this one.

Is it a 172 with re-hydration clauses????

I know there is something hidden cause the Roided one won't fight anyone without advantages.

Does Murata have any real possibility of defeating GGG?

At this point, I think he does. I also give Bivol a shot at defeating Canelo in May. Which begs the question, If one or both of these unexpected events come to pass, what happens in September?

Good grief, people on here always want to make everything about race. I'm going to call out the black folks on here who are constantly being racist towards other nationalities. Let me remind you that racism goes all ways, it's not something that just affects black folks, Native Americans deal with racism, ( probably worse than any other race) ***ish people, Hispanics, Asian's, ect ect. Just because you're black, doesn't give you a pass to be racist yourself, if you're racist towards others no matter who you are, you are as bad as anyone who is racist towards anyone... So just stop your B.S and don't play the victim when someone calls you out on your sh**. I think this country is tired of hearing all the racism from anyone, so maybe take a good look at yourself before you cry about your life. ...

Maybe it’s not a cherry pick at all. Maybe Canelo wanted to challenge himself and go after another title at light heavyweight

The article says the fight is at the full 175-lb limit

Easy route easy work. What a ho. He will retire rather than face Charlo and Benavidez .

Well the guys Canelo beat to unify at 168 along with Bivol are better than any of Charlo and Benavidez’ opponents thus far.

Great post.

SOME black posters on here (not all) can't handle it when a fighter of another race is shining.

And to be fair there are certain Canelo fanboys who make it all about race too, only rooting for Mexican fighters and taking little shots at everyone else.

If you truly love the sport you should appreciate greatness regardless of skin color.

Interested in the Bivol fight, couldn't care less about a GGG trilogy

The GGG trilogy is for DAZN, which is why they offered big money to make it happen.

Canelo is essentially saying “ok fine, if you want it that bad then I’ll take your money and make the fight”

I'd be amazed! Hope it is a good fight!

Can Bivol get roided too?

They're putting this on PPV. Why are we paying for DAZN?

That is what all Dazn subs are going to ask in May. Why am I paying 20 bucks to subscribe and I have to pay PPV money. You better believe it's going to be 80-90 bucks because they have to try and recoup all that money they just guaranteed him. This has got to be the worst start up company ever in America. Terrible business plan. They have nothing left for him after that. GBP is their only hope in America but unfortunately for them it's not enough. Ryan is unpredictable and unreliable. If the Reynoso gym couldn't get him to focus in Mexico then Joe Goosen is gonna have a very hard time in San Diego. Virgil, who is the better prospect, isn't going to get any better fighting on Dazn. He's only going to be fighting Euros now and his skills will decline. He needs to be fighting Americans to get better. He should be mixing it up with the C level PBC welterweights like Wale Omotoso, Robert Guererro, Vito Mielnicki, Jose Benevidez jr. Then B level like Carlos Adames, Josesito Lopez, Sergey Lipinets, Marrio Barios, Adrian Broner, Omar Figueroa, Jamal James, Thomas Delorme, Butaev, Stantionis. Then if he makes it through that he gets the big money A level fights with Danny Garcia, Keith Thurman, Sean Porter, Ugas and Spence. Just like Boots Ennis is doing. Boots you can see gets better every fight because he's going that route to earn his title shot. Virgil isn't earning his because he's being relegated to fighting inferior opponents who aren't going to be able to mimic what American welterweights do. And I like Virgil and want to see him in those fights real soon.
