    Bivol is twice Floyds size, if Floyd had that advantage he would have stopped Canelo.

    Again everyone that can really box with fast feet gives Canelo loads of problems, Floyd was 36 and a ATG near retirement and he schooled him, Bivol is big with tight boxing in his prime and as fresh as a daisy, if Bivol was a great LH he would have stopped Canelo tonight.

      I'd say Floyd. He fought at the weight Canelo chose, was the much smaller man and still schooled him.

      Bivol did fight a prime, but smaller Canelo. I expected a robbery and it almost happened, but I feel so happy for him. No way Canelo beats him in the rematch, that fight wasn't even close.

        Question isn't who is more skilled. Who has more impressive win? It's Bivol. Mayweather was already ATG before the Canelo fight. Most of fans favoured him. Bivol was like "gonna be close fight but Canelo wins" type fight. And the fight wasn't even close. A f**kin 117-111.

          LOL, forgot GGG. He actually had Canelo fighting going backward. Lara's 113-24 headshots landed are on par or slightly better than Bivol. As with the Lara and Bivol fights, Canelo pretty much just landed body shots. Like I said, Andrade would have boxed his ears off for the 160 undisputed. Do you think he had issues with Bivol's controlling range? that's all Andrade does is a pot shot you like FMW, disappear, and force you to reset.
          Maybe, but Andrade is nowhere near the size of Bivol, its a great equalizer when you go from not being able to hurt the bigger man to be able to take Andrade out.

          We have known all along Canelos feet is slow its his biggest weakness, doesn't mean because he cannot beat a much bigger genuine guy that all of sudden everyone beats him..

            Bivol had a more lara like performance vs canelo. Canelo won 3 to 4 rounds with bivol. But He got dominated from 1 to 12 with mayweather.......mayweather also hit canelo a lot more accurate. Canelos head was snapping back with mayweather against the ropes. Canelo was able to get out of the way of shots with bivol hanging on the ropes but not with mayweather. The poll results will say 99% bivol 1% mayweather only because its mayweather.

              Floyd TBE vs a green weight drained Canelo in a catchweight fight or Bivol vs a supposedly unbeatable pound for pound #1 Canelo at the correct 175 pound limit? Hard call.

                  Mayweather was clearly the more impressive victory.......and this is coming from an actual Mexican and Canelo fan.

                    Bivol beat an experienced and non weight drained Canelo. Mayweather did.

                    Bivol was the better win.

                      An underdog winning will always be more impressive than a favorite winning. Congratulations Bivol!!! Barely anyone believed in you, but you believed in yourself and that's what matters the most!
