    The whole point is that you feel he should've made a BETTER offer, and Canelo felt that his offer was the BEST offer! My point is that if Bivol had a BETTER offer, he should've rejected Canelo! If he did not have a BETTER offer, then he made a bad business decision! Bivol has now been out of the ring since Novemeber 2022!

      Cool, he doesn`t, Bivol will remain his daddy.

      I am totally cool with that.

      BTW, are you a boxing fan, or a financial negotiations fan? You talk more aboit money than about boxing.

          Now he is sitting on the shelf and not making any money.
          He already fought once and destroyed the guy while Canelo.was Fighting nobodies..

Middle of September already and we know both won't fight each other this year. But keep crying about Canelo you simp.
            You forgot how scared Canelo is of Beterbiev. Let's talk about that.

              All these people trying to make it about money, likely because they wish they had money. Bivol is happy with his money and wants to fight for legacy. He's said that numerous times. All Canelo has to offer Bivol is money.

              Bivol offered to fight at 168, or even a catchweight with a rehydration contract. If Canelo had given Bivol the fight at 168, Bivol might be the one who is undisputed at super middle, and Canelo could try to cash cow A-side with no belts. I said after the first fight that there was no way Canelo would risk that. He wouldn't even risk a catchweight without any belts on the line. Bivol is willing to fight just to prove that it wasn't about weight. Canelo isn't.

              Get out of your heads about money, and think about what kind of offer should be made to the winner if Canelo actually wanted to settle the score. He didn't try his hardest. He didn't try at all. He made an offer he knew would be rejected and moved on because he knows that L isn't going to be redeemed.

                Lowballing? You joking right? Bivol made his biggest purse to date against the ginger dude. Besides, didnt he said that he wasnt for the money but for egacy big fights? Yeah, very contradictory the russian.

                  He lowballed Bivol because he knew he was going to lose again. If Canelo wanted the fight, he could have easily offered him more

                    It's called "Prize" fighting for a reason! The "Money" is the prize! Why didn't the rematch happen? It's wasn't because of Ring Size, or Drug Testing, it was because of the "Money!" Canelo took an "L" at 175! I guess his legacy is permanently damaged? Meanwhile, no fights for Bivol since November 2022! "Coulda, Woulda, Shoulda!"

                      So he made more money fighting Zurdo? Maybe he made more money fighting Umar Salamov? When you call something a "lowball offer," that implicates you could make more than the offer elsewhere! Did he he ever make more?
