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

[NC Uppercut]

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.

But Nelo said he’s not fighting anymore Mexicans…??

Big respect to the ginger for wanting Bivol smoke all over again regardless of weight class, Russian would still be tough to beat at 168 imo. Havin shot to become undisputed while earning biggest payday of his career must be every boxers goal

Hahahahahahahahahahaha

Eddie , you funny too

[Cool story]

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

Canelo still bigger draw than bivol
Canelo the biggest draw in boxing right now

It takes place wherever Bivol says. Canelo no longer calls the shots.

That's out of context.
Bivol never said he would prefer 168. Bivol said he can make 168lbs and implied that he would consider it

Check your dates again. That was almost a week before the earliest of the links I provided. He's since decided that he's primarily motivated by belts and wants to take Canelo's 168lb belts. Gives him more leverage to get the fight he actually wants, which is Beterbiev. He's said this several times since he was asked about it in early November.

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.

at 175 , maybe with a gun or a gatling gun. Without it, 0 chance.

That only matters when your open chases only money. Bivol chases glory and has made it clear that Canelo is not a priority of his.

115-113 rigged cards in the first fight. he doesnt have to actually win to beat bivol, just needs to have one close round. that should flip the cards. no one wants to see that.

“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!

No he doesn’t! Sulaiman already stated that his organization will not sanction a title fight involving a Russian fighter. Sorry excuse to protect their cash cow
