Canelo will be fighting Bivol. Beterbiev will be fighting a guy Bivol beat.

[YGriffith]

I wish we had BeterbievBivol, both undefeated instead.
As much as i love Canelo it'd be nice if Bivol could pull it off

Quit dodging the question. If Beterbiev doesn’t get the Canelo fight (he didn’t), who is the best fighter he could face if it isn’t Smith? You’re trying to make it sound like Beterbiev is dodging quality opposition because a couple of idiots criticized Canelo for fighting Bivol. And that’s chicken shyte on your part.

Beterbiev could have chased Bivol long before all this but his promoter dodged because "Bivol is boring." Bringing up who the best fighter is that he could face NOW is just an attempt to ignore that fact.

What I am trying to do is bring some perspective to the Beterbiev fanboys who are taking shots at Canelo's resume. If it wasn't for them this thread would have never needed to be made in the first place.

So this thread was created because a couple of idiots criticized your hero for fighting Bivol and then you got sensitive and retaliated? Kinda small of you. When a fighter reaches Canelo’s status the criticism should be expected and embraced. No matter who he fights there will always be that criticism. Be the bigger man and accept it as a sign of success.

Bivol vs Beterbiev? Very few fighters have the privilege of crossing promotional lines and making fights on their own and these two fit that mode.

****** criticisms based on faulty reasoning deserve a response.

If people are going go take shots at a fighter at least they should do it for logical reasons, not just because they dislike the guy or because they are envious of his success.

Grow up and laugh it off. Do you really think you’re changing the narrative? If Canelo fights Bivol, he gets criticized for not fighting Beterbiev, Charlo, Benevides, ggg, etc. If he fights Beterbiev, he gets criticized for not fighting Bivol, ggg, Charlo, Benevides, etc. It means Canelo has reached a level of success very few fighters ever reach. Life is short, there’s better use of your time than trying to teach idiots that aren’t listening to begin with. Look at all of the Tom Brady critics.

Why didn't Beterbiev fight Bivol before, while Canelo was unifying in another division?

And where do Beterbiev fans get off criticizing Canelo's quality of opposition?

Beterbiev fought Gvozdyk for the lineal championship and claim for best 175 lber in the division.

Who the fook is that guy? You shameless still criticize Canelo's resume.

The guy who was ranked ahead of Bivol? The guy who was among the 4 Russian speakers who ruled that weight class(Kovalev was obviously the weakest of the 4 at that point).

Both vodka Kovalev and prime Bivol box his ears off.

Maybe, Maybe not since that just a fantasy match up that you could predict whatever you want since its never going to happen. What i do know is he and Beterbev were regraded as the #1 and #2 of the division when they fought and he beat common opponents Kov had much better and KO'd that Cuban in 3 what it took Gilberto Ramirez to do in 10.
