Comments Thread For: Bivol on Canelo Rematch: First He Said It Wasn't His Weight Class, Now It's His Arm; What [Can I] Say?

[-Kev-]

At 23 years old Canelo walked into the ring against angulo weighing 174 pounds. He’s not the smaller man compared to Bivol. He’s the shorter man. There’s a difference.

Didn’t say anything about height. I mentioned how soft and bloated Canelo looks at 175.

Weighing 174lbs on fight night for 155lb fight doesn’t make you a Light Heavyweight. Canelo was in top physical shape at 154-160, regardless of his fight night weight.

There’s been plenty of welterweights who come into the ring as Super Middleweights. Doesn’t mean they were ready to fight Andre Ward.

Wrong.

Without Clenbuterol, Canelo isn't the same monster. Remember in his Pre-Clen days, the knock on Canelo was, "his legs are too heavy, he has stamina issues, he gasses out". His body looked smoother back then. Post-Clen, all of a sudden, he had a Rocky Marciano -like hardness to his muscles and a Spartan work ethic. He also had a copious amount of acne on his back, pimples rising like a relief map. He began releasing all these training videos of himself with endless stamina, & other -worldly punching power. Then "Clen-gate" happened. He got caught. Since then, he's been under closer scrutiny and he can't juice like he had previously. This is why he likes fighting Euro-bums. Over there in the UK, drug testing has many gaps and holes. U can get away with a cycle or three. And he can smash those guys and look like King Kong and get paid a ton doing it ... But in the U.S, he can't juice as much. More of a chance to get caught. But with Clen, all bets are off the table, anything is possible. If he can sneak a little Clenbuterol in his system somehow, he'll hurt something. Because he'll never get tired, ur punches won't mean anything to him, and his punches will feel like bricks and explode like sticks of dynamite... Clenelo Alvarez- one of the strongest Mexican juice heads of all time

He should do what Canelo did and fight Andy Ruiz. At least the PbC guys move up in weight. These guys However, stay in 1 weight class and build their career fighting small good guys coming like ggg did. Gggs best wins were Kell Brook and Danny Jacobs who also moved up in weight, and they still struggle. The Ukrainian brothers Are built different. Usyk and Loma, they move up and take all challenges. But Bivol, Beterbiev, and Kovalev are trash.
Kovalev dominated a small Ward.

Bivol should work abit harder and cut weight and fight in 160.
160 168 175 and 200 champion.

Interesting because he didn’t look soft and bloated at all at 175. He was so comfortable at the weight when he beat Kovalev that he was actually considering going up to cruiser. His body actually looked softer during his 154/155 pound days. Canelo was not at a physical size disadvantage as far as weight or how he carried it. He was at a height and skill disadvantage.

Thats what happens when u eat too many of them "tacos especiales".....make up excuses and go on bs rants about messi

When you come up with a lie, but that lie doesn't sound believable after a while, then you come up with another lie.
Bivol just plain out boxed, out punched, out gutted, and out willed Canelo on the night that they fought each other.

“By fight night, Alvarez weighed 174 pounds on Showtime's scale and Angulo was 170 -- light heavyweights.”
