They all spar a class or 2 above them so this is nothing new. The good big man always beats the good little. And we are still talking about a big man who stood toe-toe and took the power of huge 175s like Smith and Barrera but is going to get walked down by a 5'7 tainted meat-eating midget with a knee brace who wouldn't stop Angulo and Chavez Jr. About as fraudulent as it will ever get

While what you are saying makes the whole sense because there is no way Canelo hits harder than Smiht or Barrera I think you should take in account that not everything is punching power.

I mean, look at Kovalev getting hit flush by a much bigger puncher in Yarde and surviving that round, think about this, no one stopped Kovalev the way Canelo did, yet he is that 57 teinted meat eating midget with a knee brace who did not stop Angulo and Chavez Jr.

There is much more than just the "Fighter could not stop fighter X so he should not stopp fighter Y"

Boxing is much more complex than that, just being honest, but at the end of the day I agree with the main point that I don't see how Canelo stops Bivol.

Ginger Vegan sparring a retired fighter In the lead up to another one of his farce fights. Not surprising. Nothing he does is real anyway...

If he is such a farce why are you in here talking about him, I wouldn't waste my time talking about something I don't care, just being honest.

its interesting. Bivol clearly has good power despite not stopping his last 7 opponents. I think its more down to his lack of aggression and killer mentality rather than lack of power. He has it when he needs it. Benavidez sparred him and said he has a very strong sneaky right hand, and he spent 4 years sparring a prime GGG. No way Canelo walks Bivol down like Plant. That is fantasy land.

Earlier in Bivol's career, against a different level of competition, he was far more aggressive. I agree that he has more power than he's shown of late; he admitted he was buzzed by both Pascal and Smith in those fights, I wonder if he focuses on outboxing his opponents and limiting risk because of those previous experiences.

How the hell is this a great move bringing in a guy who is retired and the last fight he had was knocked clean the f(uk) out! ok, I give him credit for his amateur credentials and for beating a shell in Adonis but dam you can't find some in shape active fighters.

I doubt you find any fighter at 175 better than him that's willing to spar. Not a great division nor deep. Who would he spar with at 175 that's a better option?

Someone has to speak the truth about your idol. Keep the number of sheep to a minimum. Just being honest.
