    I don't know why they let Pac keep fighting.
    They should have threw in the towel.
    Pac was a dead man walking by the 4th rd and there are tons of pics to prove it

    Those who criticize one guys resume should post up their guys resume.
    We all know that shlt ain't happening

      it was such a risk that i dont think a single person in ring magazine predicted bivol to win and the bookies had canelo a massive favourite. fact is he was overhyped and exposed, thats all there is to it. people thought he was superman and turns out he wasnt, hes just a heavier version of the one that mayweather schooled.

        Nel o was a big favourite but I really don't know why? Yes, he will go down as a higher AT G but being a higher atg don't win you fights
        Bivol had beaten 19 lhw, why wouldn't bivol be favourite?

          i dont know but most people didnt see it as some massive challenge, i read the ring predictions cant remember exactly but they asked about 20 or so 'experts' and not one picked bivol to win, a few had canelo blasting him out easily. now canelo fans are shifting things as if he was fighting king kong and never had a chance... i will hold my hands up even i thought canelo would win i didnt think he would get make to look like a ****ing bum.... but im glad he did lmfao all them threads about how does canelo do against (insert ATG here) how does he match up against usyk at cruiser, could he win a belt at heavyweight and then first fight in a good weight class against a prime champion and he looked like a ****ing novice lmao, the worst thing is i was telling my family before the fight that canelos really skillful, considered p4p number 1 by many and now they dont take my opinion seriously after watching him hitting air and arms all night plodding after bivol

            lets see

            move up a division
            take on undefeated champion


            um you mean like when floyd DID this to beat canelo?

              At floyd's highest division, jr middleweight, he is 3-0 against DLH, Canelo and Cotto. thats a good record and he never moved up there to face a scrub.

              massive failure on OP's part

                Yes but at highest division he has only fought natural WWs turned lmw. Dlh and cott o didn't develop reputations as great lmw! Nel o wasn't a WW and it spooked floyd. Always knows what's going on floyd, he needed to let hair down and not over think too much

                  Kamil, Horn, the worst version of Porter, Rolls.....

                  Biv kills them all in the same rd.

                    Stop with the betting odds my guy. Betting odds mean one thing and one thing only; who's the more popular boxer. It is in no way a representation of who's the better boxer or more dangerous boxer or more skilled boxer. It does not equate to some video game equation where one guy has more hit points than the other guy by fivefold. It means on who most of the population is putting its money, which often equates to who is the most popular. That's it.

                      Do you have any notion how badly Canelo made 175, Bivol is not a good style matchup for him but on seeing how he looked and how Bivol looked, well Canelo looked like an old blown-up fighter trying to land the hail mary shot, I don't think that fight is reflective of Canelo overall, he was just out of his weight class and it really showed, he doesn't belong at 175 doesn't mean his career is null and void.

                      In my eyes Canelo was growing a massive ego, just walking through and destroying guys, he was starting to think he was Superman talking Cruiserweights Heavyweights Bivol etc etc it was his ego running wild, maybe this will bring him back to reality , he got a lot of big fights available in his weight class, if he wants greatness go back and dominate and all is forgotton.
