    What do you mean undersized? Bivol isn't a big 175LB fighter they basically weighed the same and if I wanted to nitpick, Canelo weighed more against Kovalev. Bivol just thoroughly whipped Canelo if anything people should question the score cards because they tried to rob Bivol. You don't think he noticed that? It's time to fight some mandatories at 168 or start dropping belts. The legacy is secured now right? The belts don't matter only the biggest fights.
    There is just more then weight. There is idea size also and arm length for each weight class.

      It was a shut out. 12 zip Bivol.

      not only that but he took his foot off the gas and let Canelo off the hook multiple times

          Not like Canelo is some meaningless fight. If he is paid well to rematch him it’s certainly a fight he should take.

          Only they aren't getting big money fights are they they're just wasting their careers sat on the sidelines being inactive hoping someone passes them a bone.

            Why is it hard to admit that Canelo is very good but he isn't great? He's the product of excellent match making and marketing. Y'all have so many excuses ready, y'all should work PR for the guy. So was the Kovalev fight fixed? Kovalev has longer arms than Bivol.

              bivol beats him easier than the first time... cant just plod around the ring for 12 rounds throwing wild shots hoping one lands... i was starting to feel sorry for canelo towards the end, all them people tuning in to watch 'the great canelo alvarez' and he looked like one of them bums you see on the undercard, completely out of his depth. maybe dig up some old fighter from the graveyard or go back to that trash 168 division with plant etc and canelo will look back to his best, youll see all the combos and the head movements but yeah keep him away from a fighter in his prime who can actually box

                I admire Bivol for wanting to fight Beterbiev, I think he gets knocked out. But I give him props for trying

                    Conversation should take 2 seconds. Bivol you are 2022 fighter of the Year bar none.

                      Bivol will beat Canelo again even worse, this is like Canelo in his weight being strong good. Bivol is in his weight so it's going to take someone in his weight to beat him. Bivol style is like Mikey Garcia just basic 123 simple footwork. I think Usyk style would probably be the only style that can beat penetrate through Bivol.
