Comments Thread For: Dmitry Bivol Shocks Canelo Alvarez, Wins Dominant Decision

[PBR Streetgang]

I was thinking similar ... it's a pattern. Lots of hype, fight guys that aren't ready for the big lights ... beat them rather easily. Proceed to big fight with a boxer who don't buy the hype nor cares about the specatcle .... lose spectacularly. All the while hearn is barking and singing abot the "greatest ever this & that" .... while simultaneously talking about the money his foil is making. Then BOOM ... reality hits ... a real fighter (opponent) does an expose. hearn is great for the wallet but a catastrophe on a legacy and on a fighter staying grounded in his craft.

I'm not a Hearn fan but it sounds like your take is bias. Would you rather the A-side just fight vs soft touches? Would you have rather Canelo take the easier route?

Bivol was the most dangerous of his potential opponents but that's who Canelo chose to fight. He lost, would his legacy been better off beating the lesser Charlo and a welterweight?

I feel like this is the outcome of Canelo falling too much in love with his power over the last few years. It took him 9 rounds to revert back to the old Canelo- head movement, slipping punches, etc. Id like to see him revert back to the form that got him here

Credit to Bivol. I thought for sure Canelo would beat him. Very surprised he got a decision win but he deserved it.

Canelo gassed out couldn't keep his guard up wasted to much time o the ropes bivol fought great used his physical advantage very well ,looks like GGG is a no go ,bivol hit the lottery with a rematch

Nelo vs GGGeezer still on ?

We all know GGGeezer will not step to Biv

Eh.. G looks at the scores and fights Bivol, 3rd robbery vs Canelo would be too much to take.

Hello all of you active fighters that has never seen Dmitry Bivol fight. Have you seen him now? The only people that I heard say Bivol would outbox Canelo was Teddy Atlas and Roy Jones. Hell, Teddy Atlas even said Bivol would get robbed and he was almost right.

how they had that fight 7-5 , I’ll never know. Crazy sh** is that’s not even a top 3 bad Canelo scorecard.

All three judges gave Canelo the first four rounds!!

They could still do that fight, with Bivol rematch down the line. No idea though. Think it will all come down to Canelo

I’d hardly watched bivol before, so did my homework on him on Thursday night. Watched hours. Saw the gulf in class opening up before me. Added to that, a long amateur career often means nothing a pro has can surprise you.

Looks like Hearn’s fed Canelo to the sharks, 1st bout

GGG never took risks in his prime, think he will so close to retirement ?
