    Yes he is. If Canelo beats Bivol without a bogus split decision,call me a fan. His "draw/win" against a past prime GGG in thier rematch was his last great performance. A win against Bivol would surpass that along with every other win on his resume by far imo.

      If Bivol runs around the ring trying NOT to hurt Canelo, like so many recent Canelo fights, then Bivol agreed to a dive. If Bivol fights like he usually does it is real. 99% chance Bivol will fight like a sparring partner.

        Consensus Beterbiev is #1 175, right now imho Beterbiev is #1 but skills wise Bivol might be a better boxer and a better technician than Artur, in fact I would pick Bivol to outbox Beterbiev if the two of them fought eachother, so while I got Beterbiev as the #1 175 in the world what Hearn is saying is not out of the realm of reality.

          Definitely number 2 at 175, at worst. If the fight is legit, no one should hate on it.

          When you have 5 guys or so all claiming they should get the fight vs Canelo, logic dictates that those guys should talk less and fight each other more....

            If my guy wins then is legit, if the other guys wins is not.

            Ridiculous statement, since when Bivol has been known to be a come forward pressure fighter like Beterbiev, seems you haven't watched his career, Bivol is a pure boxer who hasn't stopped anyone in the last 5 years and Canelo is iron chinned, this doesn't has anything to do with Bivol trying NOT to hurt Canelo, it's 99% probable he won't try to hurt Canelo because he doesn't need to hurt him to outbox him.

            Common sense is lacking a lot, ¿May I suggest you go and study your boxing again?

              I’ve been hearing those two names (Beterbiev and Bivol for quite some time and I could care less about that weight classs. I bring it up cause they have NEVER fought each other. I don’t even recall one challenging the other. I think they both know that would be a tuff fight for BOTH MEN. That said Beterbiev looked OLD in his last outing. Bivol would EASILY out box him NOW.
              Canelo will easily do the same. I think Beterbiev would of been the cherry pick. Bivol is a threat. Why? Watch Beterbiev’s last fight. Feet move like he’s in mud.

                Bivol is a boxer period. He’s not a brawler. Your assessment says something about your observation skills. He will hit Canelo harder than anyone has hit him. I’m curious to see if a Canelo can take it. He’s always had a great chin but Bivol is a bigger man in his PRIME with EXCELLENT timing and REACH. He’s also a ring General. Tuff fight I predict.

Yes Bivol is a dangerous fighter and can pose problems for Canelo, but everyone who follows boxing knows he’s not considered to be the best in that weight class. Beterbiev is clearly #1 right now and would be the most dangerous fight for Canelo to take in that division.
                  And he is like 40 years old. And WE all know damn well you would bring that up If Canelo won...

                    This dude is a HYPOCRITE!!! He tells Canelo quit fighting old guys. Said quit ducking Saunders and Smith when they was shining.

                    Just do the opposite of this clown
