    Bivol would have knocked out all Canelo`s opponents

    Prove me wrong.

    Canelo will find out that he doesn`t belong to 175.

    No. Bivol is the textbook definition of "straight up and down, no special effects". Those predictable 1 2 combos won't work on Canelo. Canelo will time him and eventually knock him out.

      He might outpoint them, but I don't think he knocks out somebody like BJS or even Plant. Those guys move their feet and upper body a lot and you have to really force a stoppage to make it happen. Bivol just doesn't look like a killer instinct type fighter even though he's shown good power with the right hand.

        You're mixing up Bivol with Beterbiev... You're forgiven ...

          Not if he's on the back foot like he's been with any top opponents ... I say Bivol will time him going back and land multiple jabs and 1-2's ...

            bivol hasn't knocked anyone out in 4 years. he's become less offensive and lacking killer instinct since getting hurt by joe smith. he looked very ho-hum against craig richards. let's not get carried away here.

                I’m a big Bivol fan but unlikely

                Doubt he knocks out GGG. Doubt he stops Saunders too, Canelo caused a freak injury but never really looked like he could drop him or anything, Saunders has a very solid chin. Him v Bivol at 168 would’ve been a good boxing matchup.

                Callum Smith is probably a natural 175 and I don’t think I’ve ever seen him rocked or anything

                    The only attributes Bivol has over Alvarez are, physical strength & endurance. Skill or skill, he is not on the level of Alvarez.

                    Maybe Bivol has slightly better movement, but that is about it.

                    I still think Bivol can win the fight, if he uses his attributes to the maximum. He has to set a fast pace, and attack the body.

                    We don't know, how much Bivol's strength will affect Alvarez until the fight.

                    Sergey Kovalev was strong, but he was rushed into the Alvarez fight with a short training camp, and in my opinion was not recovered from his fight with Yarde etc.
