Be honest: You had to google "Dmitry Bivol"

[JakeTheBoxer]

If Bivol is such a bum, how is it possible that nobody except Canelo dares to step up and fight him and take his belt?

[JakeTheBoxer]

Khan got sparked out by erm, Breidis Prescott, and won a couple of rounds v Canelo. Horses for courses.

What has Khan to do here?

Charlo is nothing like Khan. I mean, Khan is retired ex 140 -147 guy with very fast hands. Nothing strange that he won some rounds against Canelo.

Anyone who thinks Bivol is a bum doesn't know anything about blah blah blah. He's very good. But he doesn't sell fights. Canelo vs Bivol is a good fight for boxing fans and for Canelo fans. But for the average fan, Bivol is just another anonymous Eastern European boxer.

Your point was that Canelo would beat Charlo 12-0 and would be a pointless fight. I think it would be an entertaining fight. Everyone thought Khan would be done in the 1st round, god knows why that fight was made, Khan must have been on crack. Charlo also has fast hands, and hits harder than Khan (obviously). So if Khan can have some degree of success, then so can Charlo. Charlo vs Canelo is a fight that could make a lot of money, and I would even suggest Charlo would go the distance (but take a battering).

You see, that is why I am starting to respect canelo.

He doesn`t care what American based casuals like. Who cares about the casuals that know 20 boxers only.

He actually wants to fight good guys.

I mean I am "Canelo hater", but Bivol fight is great.

Oh I'm with you, but money does the talking. I know Canelo is powerful enough to decide who he wants to fight, but he's still going to be shepherded in certain directions by whichever broadcaster he signs with or whatever. Which is why I'm surprised the Bivol fight is on. I think Bivol is supposed to be just another stepping stone for Canelo, rather than this being a super fight, if that makes sense.

Only if you're a casual.

[jaded]

After canelo picked him.



who the fook is this guy, low hanging fruit. seems sus

You really do make a lot of dumb threads. If you followed the sport, you'd know who Bivol was.

[Amir Imam]

A Light Heavyweight who hasn’t had a KO in 4-5yrs and has been in less than 20 professional fights.

What a dumb post. Boxing fights are made for boxing fans and greatness. No genuine boxing fans want to see PBC garbages with Canelo in the ring. Bivol and Beterbiev can make someone greater, Charlo and Benavidez can't make it.
