For those who believe Bivol is the guy pushing for the rematch to take place at 168.

I just told you Beterbiev wants this fight at summers end
Big fughin deal , the Bobfather said Bivol is boring Boo fughin hoo
Eddie said that Yarde would beat Beterbiev etc etc etc
What we fughin two years old , c’mon man
And then the bullchit of Beterbiev being safe , gtfoh , the guy has 300 amateur fights and now he gonna even safe ?
Fought Usyk Kovi but yeah he’s being safe
Try again , I know I’m not playing fair cause ain’t playing your agenda
Dont at oh the amateurs cause those guys were prime young men just swinging away at each other but yeah he wants to be safe cause that’s how he was brought up the Chechen warriors
Go to sleep , sorry bud but when I hear chit like that it’s almost as bad as calling a boxer a bum

Yes, and if Bivol won`t agree, he can just tell Canelo to go away.

And why should Bivol agree for 175 fight again? It is pointless, he already beat Canelo at that weight and he almost got robbed.

To be honest, any Canelo fight makes sense for Bivol only for a huge money. Why risk to get robbed?

Was Bivol even paid for the first fight?

That’s fine and I don’t disagree but the point is what ever weight the fight happens at it’s Canelo’s choice not Bivol’s.

[El_Mero]

Bivol said hes open to 168 and if he makes the weight healthily, he dominates freckles AGAIN.

[RJJ-94-02=GOAT]

Eddie Hearn is the weasel here, he’s trying to do everything to coerce Bivol into fighting at every disadvantage to get Canelo the win. Bivol needs to grow a pair and tell them to screw off, it’s either 175 or no rematch.

Completely agree.

[GrandpaBernard]

Bivol has leverage though. Imagine a superstar not getting the opportunity to avenge a loss

[Pigeons]

It is impossible for a new-age, feeble-minded boxing fan to understand a boxer wanting something that doesn't give him an advantage. A boxer wanting something that challenges himself.

To sum up, today's boxing fans aren't familiar with real men.

I’ve been following the sport since the 90’s. I can’t believe how many supposed fans are justifying this BS. A 32 year old career Light Heavyweight having to boil down to Super Middleweight despite the guy he’s fighting- and already beat, having previously fought at 175 twice and even won a title at that weight. It’s so obvious what is happening here.

Fighters leverage everything, no fighter willingly sacrifices an advantage. Would you sacrifice a perhaps decisive advantage in a fight- if you’ve ever been in one? Bivol will make that sacrifice for the payday, just like Lalonde did back in 88. The fact he’s willing to do it, doesn’t make it right.

Whichever way people wanna spin it, the reality is this rematch will be on Canelo’s terms, he’s the superstar he gets to pick and choose the T’s a C’s. It’s the way boxing has worked for decades now, Leonard did it, Oscar did it, Floyd did it etc. If Canelo wants this fight to be at 168 it’ll be at 168, if he wants it to be at 175 it’ll be at 175. Trying to suggest this decision is Bivol’s is complete and utter nonsense.

[YOU WILL LOSE]

nobody forcing bivol to fight canelo.

but since bivol doesnt want to fight beterbiev,then what can canelo do

[Superbee]

Who is the A side? Canelo.
Who has more influence on fight stipulations? Canelo.
Who does fighting at 168 benefit? Canelo.
Who has fought at 168 multiple times before? Canelo.

If you genuinely believe this is Bivol’s doing then you’re as delusional as you are ******.

Who was completely outclassed, annihilated and put to shame in the first fight ?

No need to answer, we all know ...

[GrandpaBernard]

it's all on Bivol if he agrees to 168 and it backfires

I'm Bivol fan and like him way more than I do Alvarez

there are consequences to prostituting oneself out

Bivol being a Russian should know this. We seeing what happening to Ukraine for whoring itself out
