Canelo wanting Bivol rematch is a bad idea

[MONGOOSE66]

Since Bivol loss he has fought 40+ old GGG, Ryder, Charlo, Munguia, Berlanga.

He should stick to that level opposition. rematching the best light heavy would be another rude awakening.

Let Bivol go his own rute.

I agree. Style and size of Bivol is a nightmare for Canelo. Though im beginning to think that Beterbiev may win. Canelo should steer clear of BeterB. He will get KO’d. i know, crazy prediction.

Canelo was not too small for light heavyweight when he faced a washed up Kovalev

He was too small for LHW when he faced Bivol

It's actually quite impressive that Kovalev was absolutely battered by Eleider Alvarez in August of 2018. 6 months later Kovalez boxes Eleider's ears off. 6 months later he has a tough fight with Anthony Yarde, he gets the KO win, but it didn't come easy at all.

Less than 3 months from the time that Kovalev defeats Yarde, he's in the ring again to face Canelo. Canelo wins.... and it's celebrated as a big achievement -

'Canelo dared to be great and knocked Kovalev out!' He could've faced Bivol or Beterbiev at that time... But 'business' and 'money' he picked Kovalev. He wins.... 'WOW CANELO IS GREAT' ...loses to Bivol after the fact, 'he's too small for LHW'

'Benavidez is a weight bully'

Remember when Canelo was too small for GGG at middleweight but he fights Chavez Jr. at a Catchweight above 160? But Khan was a worthy opponent to move up and face Canelo?

You can't make this **** up.

Mental gymnastics at it's finest.

Remember the time when they're floating the idea of Boos Nelo fighting Usyk? That was so brilliant at that time.... haha

If Canelo wanted a Bivol rematch it would have happened already. It's easy to talk about it when you know Bivol has a fight scheduled.

Read my sig, that is what the Canelo lovers were saying before Bivol almost killed their queen.

[crimsonfalcon07]

He just feels like he has to say he wants it. He doesn't actually want that fight. He'll just give an "offer" that's on similar terms to the first fight, even if Bivol is undisputed at that point, and then claim Bivol doesn't want the fight. If he wanted that fight, it would have happened already.

[PRINCEKOOL]

So lets get this right? People complain when Canelo Alvarez is fighting a solid level of opposition such as Munguia and Berlanga 'But when Alvarez wants to challenge himself, and confront a mega challenge like Dimtri Bivol? People still complain'.

Canelo Alvarez is one of the best fighters of his generation pound for pound, and he is for sure 'The best Super Middle Weight Fighter of his era, and current Undisputed Super Middle Weight Champion'.

Alvarez could so easily, continue to take on solid opponent's 'But in fights where most if not all of the time, he is the heavy favourite to win'.

I have stated before, that beyond being a professional boxer 'Canelo Alvarez is a competitor. I have made this reference, in topics discussing David Benavidez vs Canelo Alvarez'.

Note: All David Benavidez needs to do, if he really wants a fight with Canelo Alvarez 'Is to confront him within physical reality, and challenge him'. Once again Benavidez has been nowhere to be seen this fight week, when there was a great opportunity for him to challenge Alvarez before the World's Sporting Media and more'.

The onus is on David Benavidez as challenger, and not a Champion 'To pursue Canelo Alvarez, and pose him the challenge. But as many people can now see? Like I have been stating for a long time, Benavidez does not want to fight Alvarez, anywhere near to the level his supporters are training to claim'.

I have always been adamant that Canelo Alvarez, should rematch Dimtri Bivol 'At 175 pounds'. And I have been one of the few individual's, who have given Alvarez a chance of winning the rematch. Skill for skill Bivol is not a superior fighter to Alvarez in all area's of his boxing game, Bivol may have superior movement, long range boxing game. But Canelo Alvarez offensively is a superior fighter, his inside game is better along with his defense while on attack'.

To conclude: Canelo Alvarez in my opinion, has the attributes 'To push Dimtri Bivol in a rematch at 175 pounds. But the challenge for Alvarez will be? Whether he can improve his endurance, and pressure fighting enough 'To force Bivol into a area of boxing, where he is not the dominant fighter'.

Dimtri Bivol of course would still be favourite to win the rematch 'But there is a way for Canelo Alvarez to win. And there is a philosophy, that can be used in his preparation for that fight to at least try and improve the area's of his game. Which will support the tactical type of fight, that he will need to execute vs Dimtri Bivol' etc.

He would not see the final bell. Now Canelo gas tank is worst than ever.

[JakeTheBoxer]

He would not see the final bell. Now Canelo gas tank is worst than ever.

He is also slower. And he has no head and body movement at all. Bum Berlanga targeted his face easily. I can`t imagine what would Bivol do to Canelo with his signature sniper combos now.

[elfag]

He has zero chance of winning. Bivol can stop him if he really wants to. last fight he was too cautious. canelo has declined and i think bivol cares about his image more now that he might be unifying. or if he lost to beterbiev he would look to rebuild his image. i think he would go for the stoppage.
