Comments Thread For: Hearn: Canelo Rematch At 175 Biggest Fight For Bivol By A Mile; Hope He Accepts The Challenge

[Bob]

There’s nowhere else Bivol can make more money than with Canelo. In a fight he would be favored to win again.

It’s a no brainer to take it.




No, the Canelo haters were howling that if the rematch is at 168 then Bivol is being weight-drained.

Now that he’s asking for the rematch to be at 175 they are changing their tune and criticizing that too. Because it’s what haters do.

Another money first troll completely missing the point.

For someone who posts so much with such a big opinion you obviously know nothing about Bivol who for year's has said he can make 168.
This isn't hating on Canelo but Canelo at 175 has nothing to loose. Canelo at 168 is a bigger fight for both of them, it has meaning, undesputed SM but undesputed at 175 against Beterbiev in boxing terms is an even bigger fight for Bivol.

"Canelo gave him the opportunity?" No. BIVOL was the champion. BIVOL "gave him the opportunity." Canelo would be "giving him the opportunity" at 168.

Please tell me your joking how much was Bivol making per fight before he accepted terms.

Bivol is a complete unknown compared to Canelo.

Yes.

These so called boxing fans talk about the money all the time.

The legacy is far bigger challenge for Bivol.

The biggest challenge is if Canelo fights Bivol at 168 with all his belts on the line, not hopping around in weight, where he gets to fight him but still keep his belts hostage, hell no. U want Bivol so bad, do it at ur natural weight for all those belts. Stop having safety net fights and stop strategizing ways to fight with minimum risk involved. Put ur ass and those belts on the line, and u will get smoked with no excuses left

Canelo’s making $30-50 million no matter who he fights next.
Sure he wants the rematch but even he said if Bivol doesn’t take the terms then there are other fights out there for him.
Where is Bivol making anywhere near what he gets vs Canelo?
Leverage is about who has the best options.

What you're not understanding is money isn't the end all for everyone, Bivol doesn't seem money hungry at all, if so, he would have accepted the fight on Canelo's terms already. Bivol has the option NOT to give Cinnabon what he wants, and he can force Hearn to make the fight against Beterbiev without the WBC belt on the line, but going for unification of the others. Remember, Hearn works for Bivol, not the other way around, and as the fighter, Bivol can make demands from his promoter.

Biggest fight for Bivol is Beterbiev. Dmitry ALREADY fought, dominated and beat Saul. I dont mind seeing Saul gettin taken to school again but Bivol has bigger fish to fry

Bivol is not dumb, he will never leave that kind of $ on the table. Just think health care costs once pro athletes retire lol.

Not his style but, I would laugh for days if Bivol showed up with bank robber mask a la Mayweather.

[Rebelrbg]

If they fight at 168 Canelo might be the victor. Maybe even at 175 but either way it will be a good fight.

You must not have seen how Cinnabon looked against Ryder. Bivol will whoop Canelo's ass at either weight, but he wants to fight for Canelo's belts, the same way that he put his title on the line for Canelo.

Bivol won, he should dictate terms, or tell Canelo to take a hike. Simple as.

[Boxing Scene]

What challenge. He toyed with redballs and almost got ****ing robbed.
