Comments Thread For: Dmitry Bivol: I Was a Little Bit Shocked When I Heard 115-113

With this score they can say "it was close" while it wasn't. Canelo was dominated and, if Bivol had been a hardest puncher, he would have been ko'd. This was similar to usyk v aj.

Agreed Bivol was in complete control. It was not a close win. Maybe Canelo can now say it was closer than it was, though I doubt he will try. All agreed. I still don't see where the 'total robbery' is.

Canelo and how he is treated by the boxing establishment just shows how blatant the corruption in boxing has gotten. Lads, they don’t even try to hide it when it comes to Canelo, Valdez, Reynoso etc. these fighters and that camp can actively take performance enhancing drugs and be caught dead to rights and still no one does anything. CNelo should indeed have at least two more losses on his record. Boxing establishment goes out of its way to protect popular fighters from Mexico because of the money spent by Mexican-American fans particularly on Cinco de Drinko. Fighters, promoters, matchmakers, managers, casinos, alcohol providers, stadiums/arenas, hotels, athletic commissions, sanctioning bodies, networks, boxing writers etc all count on the Canelos of boxing. All of them want the gravy train to roll on. It’s why arum was so upset at the Stevenson fight last weekend, he knew Valdez was going to lose to a superior talent and now he’s worried about drawing power. Does the boxing establishment care if they look blatantly corrupt? Of course not….who’s going to do anything about them? They are all in it together. NO ONE who makes money off Canelo wants to see him lose

Spot on! Canelo is a great fighter but his career has been saved by the powers that be in boxing. Once Pacquiao and Mayweather checked out, Vegas had to find their new money man. I kinda loved that he lost for the simple fact it threw a monkey wrench to DAZN,Vegas,WBC,Nevada boxing commission.

I knew someone would see it. Good show old boy and fair play

you're insane. NO way did he win 4 rounds and no way should he have received 5 rounds. Even though Bivol won, this was still a horrible decision. Under no rule of proper scoring did Canelo win 4 or 5 rounds

There were enough swing rounds to justify it but not enough for him to win the fight. The loss was clear but it wasn’t as wide IMO.

Canelo is the most overrated fighter ever. he actually felt like he won the fight lol. Insane level of ******ity.

But that is what years of being protected hype job do to the fighter.

BEFORE the fight.
that's why canelo talks about the rematch.
