    Comments Thread For: Bivol: Without Richards, Castillo Bouts - I Wouldn't Have Received Canelo Fight

    WBA light heavyweight champion Dmitry Bivol was surprised that so many had him set as a huge underdog in last Saturday's fight with Mexican superstar Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez.

    Damn right. Canelo was so ready to cherrypick Bivol, that he immediately wanted to fight Bivol after the Richards fight. This was evident in Canelo having Bivol as his plan B if the Caleb Plant fight fell through.

      Basically, Canelo and Reynoso thought he was cake-like Wilder thought Fury was. Seriously, stay far away from the rematch.

        ‘Yes, I feel [the increase in recognition], I felt it even when I was in training. I went to the grocery store, and they recognized me, every time I left the house somewhere, someone took a picture with me. I was surprised that they were adult women in their fifties.’

        Yo, Bivol’s just made it with menopausal America: the golden ticket

          Canelo will best this man in the rematch. Canelo was off that night. I could tell since the weigh in… something was off, like he got bored of being at the top or something. He was not 100% invested in the fight for whatever reason, of course that’s just my opinion… I expect the rematch to happen and I expect canelo will beat Bivol this time! Bank on it

            Just fight Bertervieb, you beat a smaller man. Nothing to be proud of.

              You guys don't know what you're talking about. Bivol was never anybodies cherry pick. Canelo's motivation is the question. Why Bivol and not Benevidez? Benevidez is the easier fight, or does anybody think Benevidez can beat Bivol? Canelo was bad mouthing Charlo, that would have been a cherry next to Bivol. Canelo doesn't want to dance with the ugly girls.

                I said before the fight, 5-1 odds for Canelo was crazy. The bookies don't know that much about boxing then, or didn't sit and watch Bivol's fights.

                I could've made Bivol the favourite to win, but I think the thing about the judges and Canelo's star profile made him the bookies fave.

                They will never underestimate Bivol again. And If Canelo wants a rematch, few would pick against Bivol. The guy has elite skill.

                  Ah! So Canelo thought he was cherry picking the easiest of the light heavyweights to get a belt. Just like when Roy Jones went after sorry ass John Ruiz for the heavyweight belt.

                    I have been telling you all the time I see zero chance Canelo beats Bivol or Beterbiev but Canelo fans would laugh.

                    Now we see silly damage control excuses how Canelo at least tried lol.
