Eddie Hearn, who currently works with Saul 'Canelo' Alvarez, believes dangerous puncher Artur Beterbiev is an easier opponent for the Mexican star than WBA light heavyweight champion Dmitry Bivol.
Canelo jumped back to 175-pounds and was outboxed over twelve rounds by Bivol, who secured a dominant unanimous decision victory.
Earlier this month, Beterbiev demolished Joe Smith in two rounds to unify the WBC, WBO, IBF titles at 175.
Prior to suffering the loss to Bivol, Canelo had been discussing the idea of facing Beterbiev.
Hearn likes Canelo's chances against an aggressive fighter with the power-punching style of Beterbiev.
In fact, he confidently backs Canelo to topple Beterbiev.
“Beterbiev is an easier fight for Canelo Alvarez!," Hearn told The DAZN Boxing Show.

If Beterbiev is so "easy" why doesn't Canelo fight him for his tuneup fight in May 2023?
