    Which is the worst scenario for Nelo @ 168?


    Losing 3 belts to Bivol
    PROS:
    - still left with 1 belt, the corrupt WBC belt
    CONS:
    - losing to a "drained" Bivol is somewhat humiliating
    - still have to defend his WBC belt against his mandatory, Benavidez

    Losing 4 belts to Benavidez
    PROS:
    - none i can think of
    CONS:
    - another boxer beating him further lower his stocks​
    7
    Losses his 3 belts (WBA, WBO, IBF) to Bivol
    42.86%
    3
    Losses his 4 belts to Mexican Monster Benavidez
    57.14%

    losing them to bivol at 168 i think which he is obviously terrified about. this is something i said in a thread related to garcia/davis, a lot of fighters want a 'disadvantage' like a hydration clause, fighting at a different weight etc so they have a built in excuse when they lose.

        I still think he can beat Benavidez, Bivol no chance. Whatever weight they fight at.

          Losing 3 to Bivol at 168 imo. Cause hed still have 1 ILLEGITIMATE belt which would be a fcuking joke!

          Losing to Benavidez wouldnt be as bad imo cause at least it wouod be a passing of the torch. Still would be funny af though

            Losing to Benevidez, he would undoubtedly have a rematch clause. He would have already played that card with Bivol. If Bivol beats him handily again, he's fcked.

            That said, I think Canelo beats Benevidez the first time. For real I mean, without questionable scorecards.

              He will beat Bivol in the rematch, then KO Beterbiev, before coming back down to 168 where he loses a 117-111 decision to Charlie Zelenoff. Nash out

                  He stands a better chance with Benavidez. Bivol has his number.
