Comments Thread For: Bivol: I Don't Need Rematch With Canelo; Maybe To Earn Money, But Not My Main Goal

If the first fight had an absurd result from the judges, and Canelo took a beating, imagine the second? I'm sure it will be stolen. GGG has been through this. Then you need to listen to the disillusioned Canelo saying that now he's "back". Better Bivol go its own way.

Plant Benavidez and Charlo was all bigger than Canelo. Benavidez was getting touched by a smaller FMW Jr TMT fighter and put on his behind. I do not get the hype. Canelo beats all 3 of them. That's why Haymon keeps all of them undefeated and another 100 million on the table for Canelo.

Canelo just cant move a 175lber even with tainted beef. Ramirez and Beterbiev (esp this one) probably stop him. Bivol is nicer, just outpoints you which is what he is going to do to Zudo Wilder 44-0

I can't put the blame on Haymon! Charlo and Plant are scared of Benavidez! I wish Jermall had the courage that his twin Jermell has! Jermell will fight anybody, and he's shown that consistently! Same with Spence Jr.! He wants all the smoke!

What’s absurd? Top Rank MatchRoom PBC guys win these kinds of decisions all the time when they bring in a Mexican guy that dies more than expected. These guys get creamed sometimes and no complaint. Bivol won but if he would have lost, I’ve seen worse.

1. Once you reach a certain age and get to a certain walk around weight, you’re not dropping back down to a lower weight class in a healthy way. Pandemic or no pandemic. Canelo has been adamant that he can’t make 160 anymore. Same deal. 2. When did Bivol make this offer? because the quote I posted was after their first match.

"Bivol Open To Rematch With Canelo at 168 for Undisputed Championship In Rematch" Put that in your search engine. Article by Jeff Sorby, May 8, 2022. Boxing News 24/7. I applaud Bivol for saying he would do it! Canelo would be smart to take him up on the challenge, but his pride will probably tell him to rematch @ 175. I think he would lose again! If Bivol beat Canelo at 168, and became Undisputed @ 168, he would have to be considered Top 3 P4P!

If Canelo beats GGG, and Bivol beats Zurdo, I want to see the rematch, but I want the rematch to be @ 168! Bivol offered to fight Canelo @ 168, and I think that;s great! Let Canelo put his titles on the line! If not, then vacate those titles, so others can move forward too!

If Bivol beats Zurdo, he must unify with Beterbiev

Bivol made the offer, so I don't have a problem with it! Canelo went to his division, and he took the risk, so Bivol coming down is only fair, especially since it was his idea!

just because a fighter says something does that make it good? Do yo have interest in seeing Canelo fight Usyk? At this moment, i have no interest. I have no interest seeing Mares vs Tank either

This was Bivols quote “Maybe I can make 168. Before Coronavirus, I was 100% I could make [168], but coronavirus gives me more [weight]. I was sitting at home raising my fat.”
This doesn’t sound like someone saying let’s run it back at 168 and canelo asking to do so would only be another example of canelo trying to gain an unfair advantage over an opponent. As far as canelo fighting at 175, let’s not forget him walking into the ring at 174 pounds at 23 yrs old to face angulo. Imagine how much he’s weighed in the ring since. He wasn’t at a weight disadvantage vs bivol. He was at a height and skill disadvantage.

and a power disadvantage

[RoadMan94]

I make Bivol 100% correct. He is so humble it’s funny, it’s like beating Canelo really was no big deal to him. Can only appreciate that about Dmitry.

I'm sure he wants to, but Arum won't work with Hearn! Bivol would have to go to TR just like Haney!

Same could be said when Canelo challenged Bivol @ 175! However, I give props for Canelo taking the risk, and I would give props to Bivol if he went to 168, for Canelo!
