Bivol would be drained at 168. Only way Canelo could win (on ref scorecards, on real life probably close win for Bivol, mark this post).

Either he gets schooled by Bivol again (while hoping the weight cut is enough to hinder him) May 2023 or he gets beaten down and stopped by Benavidez in September 2023. Either way, Canelo is going to take a L if he decides to face one or the other.Comment

Canelo wanted a strap at 175
‘adding to his legacy’
You can’t go up to a weight class to fight for the title get dominated and then try and get the fighter to move down so you have a better chance of beating him.
The ginger midget should be fighting against 168lbers

Why risk his belts, Better get a catchweight of 168.1 and go for bivol's belt. If he does this, it's lame in my opinion. So you got beat and just to get the W you want to make the opponent drop to your weight class... In reality, bivol never called canelo out, he just gave Canelo the opportunity he asked for. Bivol is no bully.

I think Bivol might still win. His defense is still going to be tight and his reach/distance control is still going to be a tough hill to climb.
What a disaster that would be for boxing. Boxing's 2 cash cows slaughtered within a few months of each other. Bivol, good as he is, will never be a cash cowComment
