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

[Tibburon245]

Canelo will fight his A off to beat Bivol at 168--for sure he doesn't want to lose twice and all his belts too.

Bivol offered to drop to 168 way before they ever fought @ 175.

I believe Canelo is on the decline after years of steroid abuse. His body and mind are breaking down under the stress of the constant cycles. Of course he has a punchers chance but highly unlikely he beats Bivol at 68 or 75.

Bivol in the last few rounds was just bullying him. In the 11th he put his forehead to Canelo's in the center of the ring and just pushed him back and Tee'd OFF on his face. It was glorious.

Hearn is trying to utilize all the psychology within his wit in an attempt to lure Bivol, into moving down to 168, to win more belt's.
When in reality he's trying with all his might to give Canelo his best advantage of beating a weight weakened Bivol at 168.
Bivol will beat Canelo again whether it's at 175, or 168. If the fight is set for the 168 pound limit, Bivol will be faster in all aspect's of his game.
Instead of hitting Canelo with a 10 punch combination, he'll be hitting Canelo with a 15 punch combination, causing him to possibly quit in disgust.

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

Never knew Crawford claiming there was a mystery ****** investor offering an exuberant amount of money, yet can’t tell you who it is, what his name is, or what he looked like, amounts to Spence ducking Crawford. It must be all the amounts of great fighters Crawford’s ever fought in his career.. oh wait. I bet you tell everyone Crawford is HOF ready as well.

Eddie seems to forget that Canelo LOST in May and no longer calls shots when it comes to Bivol.

Maybe if the pbc welterweights stopped avoiding him Crawford would already have them on his resume

I think they trying to make it like Floyd vs like paquiao
but Spence isn’t Floyd and Crawford isn’t paquiao
neither one is a big draw tbh
nobody really knows them

Why would Bivol move down in weight? If Canelo wants a rematch, he's got to come up to light heavyweight again.

Bivol holds the upper hand now, even though I don't doubt that Canelo is still the cash cow of boxing.

[slindee3]

This is just a ploy (excuse) as to why this rematch won't happen. Canelo won't fight Bivol at 175 again and Bivol won't come down to 168. He said he would prior to the first fight but there's no reason for him to come down now.

[TyrantT316]

Canelo's pride is hurt, but that doesn't mean he is in control. It is admirable wanting the rematch, but he should be enticing Bivol to a rematch, not making it seem like Bivol owes him a rematch. Canelo challenged Bivol and Bivol won. Canelo would do better for his legacy to try taking care of Benavidez, a Charlo, etc. Then maybe in the future/near future another LHW attempt.
