What's A Bigger Risk For Canelo? Benavidez At 168 Or Bivol At 175

[Oracle01]

With Bivol the only risk is that he will out box you to a boring decision but Benavidez the risk will be him brutalising and stopping you. When Bivol had Canelo on the ropes in the 5th and gave him that combo, people went wow, yet that is only a fraction of what Benavidez is capable of offensively.

I say that Benavidez is the bigger risk because chances are Ginger could get stopped or knocked out in that fight by him. In his last fight with Bivol he lost a very close decision by only one round.

Dmitry just barely did enough to win that fight according to the three official judges scorecards. Canelo was only a swing round or two away from winning that title.

If Canelo isn't knocked out by Bivol this time and does just a little bit more in the rematch than he did previously then he should win the fight.

Benavidez is there to be hit. his defense isn't good.


that means Canelo's hooks will land to the head and body. it's definitely an easier fight.



Bivol has the best defense in all of boxing. opp landing % lower than Lomenchenko, Usyk, Stevenson, etc you have to make canelo miss like Floyd.



if you're there to trade, Canelo is just too good at riding shots and countering...... he packs too much power.

With all that being said and done but yet he still came very close in defeating Bivol. Dmitry had to win the last round just in order to defeat Canelo. All three judges scored it 7-5 for Bivol. Which only tells me that if Canelo is able to do just a little bit more in the rematch then he should be able to defeat Dmitry Bivol.

Also, I may add; Bivol doesn't like to take risks in the ring or press or turn up when bouts could be a lot closer on the official scorecards. Which nearly cost him the fight to Canelo. He simply chooses to coast to victory which could easily favor Alvarez in a very close fight.

I voted Bivol but like someone brought up all Canelo has to do is be competitive and will win on cards

[Jdasilva2012]

Benavidez all the away! As a matter of fact there is a real chance that Canelo get stopped. Benavidez has dog DNA and killer instinct. Canelo is used to bully people and impose his superb physic but in that fight that won't be enough/doable.

Biv.
Boxers > Punchers.
Also, bigger is usually more dangerous.
That's a ''big'' reason people stay put.

What are the chances of Biv or Beter moving up ?

[BodyBagz]

No one except Nelo is expected to chase greatness

MFers can sit back and collect applause for beating some random journeyman
Move up in the p4p rankings

What makes you think Canelo can be stopped by Benavidez and couldn't even be really hurt by GGG

[Brother Mouzone]

Benavidez , Nelo was never in any real danger of being stopped by Bivol ............David can fookin crack and he looks for the finish ..

Depends on what you mean by risk. Canelo likely beats the stuffing out of Benevidez but if he fails he risks taking a sizable hit to his reputation. Bivol probably beats Canelo again but he’s bigger and better than Benevidez, Canelo can write the loss off, somewhat, to losing in a weight class he doesn’t belong in.
