Sounds exactly like the argument he made against Canelo vs Golovkin 1 but they didn’t duck that for years right?

Yes of course. You know Oscar. When he was fighting he had a "Brains Trust" just like Mayweather, would never fight anyone where he wasn't certain to win. He ducked Mosley for years although they lived only a few miles from one another all their lives. He slipped up with Quartey and Trinidad. After Trinidad he wasn't as careful any more He left Top Rank and wasn't as protected. ALso he wasn't and isn't very smart.
So what Oscar means is that he's have Alvarez fight guys bjind in one eye, , feet full of corns, brittle hands, and glass Jaws. And poor fundamentals.
He always talks out of his fundament anyway.Comment

I think the crowd would have hung all the Adelaide Byrdites from the rafters. I scored it 10-2 for Bivol and felt I was generous. Alvarez was not "out-boxed" as all the writers are fond of politely saying...he was OUTCLASSED....!!Comment

He lost to Sturm in his previous fight quite easily, lost almost every round, but corrupt judges gave it to him with ltst of protesting fans. Then he took a dive against Hopkins when he was supposedly flattened by that feather glancing little tap...which didn't prevent him from acting it out by being on his knees and thumping the canvas with his fight in "frustration".. All phony.... very bad acting of course. . A week or two later Hopkins is a 3-5% partner.
I’m no fan of Oscar, in fact I loathe him, but Hopkins was the biggest fight for Oscar at the time. And HBO was pushing it hard. No one on earth knows who Bivol is, even after he knocked off Canelo rather easily. I think that’s the point Oscar was trying to make.
The "sport" of boxing on display....Comment

They know/his who Bivol was He's a lt. heavy champion with 11 defences, won interim title in 7th fight full title in 9th fight.. He had to be NO slouch. Champ for few years already. and unbeaten. They knew, but thought, because of his previous 2 sluggish fights that he was a pushover and an easy way tom pick up another lt.heavy belt. Did;;t they say that they were fooled by Bivils average performances against Richards, and the other guy.!!

CLOSER....?? by what.....??? One round .....maybe.....So he'll lose 9-3 instead of 10-2Hopefully Canelo eating humble pie makes him come back down to earth.
Just like I think AJ is going to beat Usykk in the rematch I think Canelo could beat Bivol. His corner suked and him having the same game plan as he did against Saunders, Smith, and Plant was beyond ******. Play that back with way more body work and we can get a much closer fight...Comment

Hasn't that what Mayweather has been doing for years and years. !!!. All boasters and narcissists do it. They delude themselves. and like it. May favourite picture of Mayweather is him being led away in handcuffs. my favourite picture of Oscar is his face when he lost to Trinidad.Comment
