Comments Thread For: Canelo-Bivol Light Heavyweight Title Fight To Land At T-Mobile Arena

When Canelo did what Charlo and Andrade only think and dream about beating and fighting GGG no once but twice, then all the Charlo fans can say what they want! Who has Charlo fought other than the poor people he keeps getting arrested for?

Dude don’t reward GGG for not fighting Charlo or Andrade.

GGG did what anyone would do- fight the cash cow multiple times for his 2 biggest paydays.

The more difficult thing would be to fight high risk, lower reward guys like Charlo and Andrade.

You even watch boxing or you just post sh.it here?

Bivol beats everybody Canelo has ever fought.

Only because he’s significantly heavier than 95% of Canelo’s resume.

I think Bivol is technically a bigger challenge than say, Charl, but it might not be as exciting a fight.

Bivol has shown a bit of a chunk in his armour lately, but he is an excellent boxer. I still give Canelo the edge, just has a bit more in his bag of tricks and is more powerful.

Pascal was washed all the way up. He went 12 rds with him while a guy like Kovalev stopped a younger version. I guess 37 y/o Barrera is his best win and that doesn’t prove much considering he lost to Jesse Hart a yr later. His resume is no better than Charlos. This is just my opinion if you feel differently that’s fine.

The vast majority of the boxing world, trainers, promoters, other fighters rate this as a very tough fight for Canelo - but you for some reason dont

I’m grown I think for myself I don’t form my opinions based on what the “vast majority” says, even though you’re exaggerating.

my point was that the consensus amongst people who clearly know a great deal more about boxing than you is that Bivol is a tough fight for Canelo and that your perspective of him not belonging in the same ring is therefore very likely to be incorrect. Of course you’re perfectly entitled to hold that perspective - thats the wonderful thing about forums, not everyone agrees so sparks debate. However, suggesting other people don’t think for themselves purely because they disagree with your opinion and agree with the consensus of the experts is immature and the sort of thing conspiracy theorists do.

That same washed up Pascal beat both Marcus Browne and Badou Jack after Bivol flattened him and may well have been juiced up at the point he fought him - hardly washed up really. i’m inclined to agree with the earlier response and question whether you actually watch any of these fights and if you do whether you actually understand what you’re seeing - your comments suggest otherwise.

I’m going to this fight.

His resume is no better than Charlos? Can you name one champion Charlo has fought in his current weight class? Bivol has 2 and you can say what you want about Pascal but the only person to stop him was Kovalev so don't make it seem like it's an easy feat, he also beat Marcus Browne someone Beterbiev just defended his titles against.

This is just clear Canelo hate with a pro Charlo/Andrade mindset even though both their resumes combined are garbage.

Aside from the clear hating on behalf of Amir "Son of Adrian Granados" Imam, this is a great fight and honestly a losable fight for Canelo. I've said all along the 2 people that can give Canelo trouble are Beterbiev and Bivol, and Bivol has good boxing with a decent punch. After watching the Joe Smith Jr fight it makes me favor Canelo slightly just because Smith is not that fast or technical and was still able to touch up Bivol in spots. Canelo doesn't hit as hard as Joe but he's more accurate and he works the body more, I could see a late stoppage but if Bivol was able to hurt or out box Saul it wouldn't surprise me either.

This has nothing to do with Canelo. His legacy is already set. My post mentioned nothing negative about Canelo.

You are discrediting his next opponent it has everything to do with him.

[Hard Hands]

Yes he fought GGG twice and LOST both fights! Everyone knows GGG got robbed.
