Comments Thread For: Next for Beterbiev after Bivol? Assistant trainer wants Canelo or Benavidez but thinks Canelo's too small

[A.B Counterhooks]

Scully is right, Bivol looked huge next to Canelo and im not talking just in terms of height, it was so evident just by looking at their body frame/ reach disparity plus Bivol skilled AF too so people saying Canelo choose him just by sole thought he could easily beat him are clueless lol, Canelo comes from 154 ffs that fact alone tells how great mexican fighter really is.

Personally ,I dont see much sense talking about potential future matchups with Benny or Canelo for the winner as this fight is huge 50-50 with the possibility of being a tight one and maybe even a rematch could be in the cards. Neither I think Canelo has urgency to move up once again unless its a rematch with Bivol(as long he beat Beter) or in the case Benavidez beats morrell then beats Bivol to snatch all the belts. In other words Canelo wont go up if is not for 175 undisputed in a high stakes fight.

.

bivol was 185 in the ring v canelo, canelo himself was almost certainly close to that and he is ripped no fat on him at all, back when he was at 154 he was killing himself to stay there

Well brother not so sure if that was really the case since Canelo started fighting at 154 from 2010 all the way to 2013 weighting in half pound less than the division limit on average with another short lived comeback in 2016 against Beefy Smith. That doesn't seem like 'killing himself' to make weight imho.

I think it's appropriate to quote myself here ...

He also would probably punch Ginger out of this world ... Notice how Beterbiev is never in Ginger's talks, but Bivol is ... Hint ...

well if u are going from 154 to early to mid 170s in the ring, u are not doing that easy i would not say

The literal irony of calling a dude small who beat a 175 guy for a belt is amazing. Canelo seems to be only too small when he loses. Otherwise the guy was going up to heavyweight remember? Then all of a sudden when he loses he's too small. GTFO with this crap. Canelo just isn't good enough, period. This is why he's fighting the worst possible fights. He can't win the good ones.

Yet Bivol has beaten absolutely no body.

If he wasn't small for 175, he wouldn't be able to make 168.

Lol Beterbiev is super dangerous fight for Canelo ngl, at least on paper. But lets see how he handles Bivol first and foremost.

Stop with that sh.it. Canelo`s last 154 fight was about 8 years go.

Uhuh...and whats your point? Just look at that picture you got there, Bivol looked huge next to the ginger...and he's a relatively small LHW.

[El_Mero]

Ginger wants no part of Beterbiev just like he thought he wanted Bivil, and the cruiserweight and Usyk....
