Comments Thread For: Hearn: Canelo Wants Rematch With Bivol; Discussion Really Is, Does That Take Place At 175 Or 168

[Bronx2245]

“But Dmitry Bivol is about belts, he’s about legacy. He’s made it clear to us that he could make 168 pounds.”

If Bivol goes to 168, and becomes Undisputed @ 168, he goes to P4P #1, that is unless Usyk becomes Undisputed at HW!

Black men aren't scared of anybody period you miserable, jealous of the black fighter, weak ass, wittle wee wee racist maggot. To each race their own. find away to be proud of who you are clown.

Wouldn't even bother giving any racist piece of s*** on this forum your time that was baiting at it's finest and should he ignored. Disgraceful there are people on here talking s*** like that behind a keyboard.

I suspect a well prepared Canelo will baffle and beat up Bivol in the rematch. He has plenty of hand speed and head movement to get under jabs and away from Bivol's punches to get quick, hard counters in. Things he wasn't able to do in the first fight due to poor conditioning and underestimating Bivol.

Always funny to me how Canelo fans prefer to make excuses for his loss as opposed to acknowledging that Bivol is just better than him and maybe Canelo’s level of performance has more to do with his level of competition than anything else.

Even so, he should stay away from that jazz. It’s merely a ploy to weight weaken him

I agree, he should stay away from 168, but I wouldn’t call it a “ploy”. The person who initially and persistently keeps mentioning the fight taking place at 168 is Bivol himself. Not once has Canelo or Hearn said the fight MUST take place at 168. In any case, if canelo is the man I think he is, he’d want the rematch at 175– this way Bivol can be at full strength. Similar to Mcgregor-Diaz in the UFC. When Diaz won the first fight at 170 (which was 15 pounds heavier than Mcgregor fighting class) mcgregor demanded the rematch also took place at 170 to right all wrongs. I’d expect Canelo to do the same.

Agree with your assessment. I do believe Canelo can deploy a different game plan and use his aggression and hand speed more, but will it be enough? Doubt it. Bivol is simply a master boxer— reminiscing of Andre ward the way he uses jabs and straight rights not only for offense, but to keep safe and comfortable distance, and engaging only when he wants to.

Canelo and Eddie, and not ****** enough to give Bivol the very very likely chance to take all of Canelo's 168 belts. Then what happens to Canelo? Much smarter option would be to just hog the belts and fight cherry picked easy fights at 168. Expect a mungia fight in Mexico to happen late 2023.

I wonder if canelo can beat Bivol at 168

The irony here is your avi
you clearly doing to troll a certain demographic or fan base

worry about Spence ducking Crawford
worry about jermall ducking almost everyone

canelo probably the most accomplished boxer right now
the highest paid as well the biggest draw in boxing currently

Yall recall breadman implying that canelo is scared of black fighters?? While failing to acknowledge that black fighters are scared of everyone

Was Mayweather scared of Oscar, Marquez, and Canelo? Was B-Hop scared of Oscar? Was Whitaker scared of JCC Sr. and Oscar? Was Spence scared of Mikey? Is Crawford scared of Ortiz? Is Haney scared of Ryan Garcia? Lol!
