Keyshawn Davis ridiculed but David Benavidez given a pass? Losing Belts, 3lbs+ scale

[BasicTakes]

Quite funny when Canelo was expressing interest in fighting Usyk.

Bivol brought Canelo back to reality.

This is an exaggeration. Bivol wouldve beaten Badou Jack or Makabu at Cruiser even when Reynoso had mentioned it. Fans cried that Makabu was a Cherry Pick and fans laughed when Badou Jack disclosed that Canelo wanted a rehydration clause for a Cruiser fight. The point is money talks and lots of fighters will bend a knee like a taking a count. At least the Mexican made it known that he wanted to go up to Cruiser. Didn't Thomas Hearns hit Cruiser as well? We know James Toney and Roy went even further. And Bivol is expected to go to Cruiser anyways. He will outpoint Zurdo again. Most fans don't realize that Bivol cuts a lot to be at LHW, but in some off season vids Bivol is HUGE and 200lbs. Check out his mountain training vids. He way bigger than his LHW physique.

And just because he beat Kovalev. A guy already a shadow of himself, alcoholic and coming from a grueling fight, and full camp with no time to rest. He was not small for the division then

Funny thing though, even with the calculated management by Canelo, I have Kovalev ahead in the scorecards prior getting KOed, with Sergey's consistent jabs pushing Alvarez in the backfoot and gradually upping the activity prior to getting knockout in the championship rounds.

It wasn't because Canelo had worn him out through his activity either like when Chavez Sr was getting initially outworked by Taylor, yet his effective steady work had taken a toll on the Olympic medalist, Kovalev was gassed yet mostly unharmed despite the power punches that landed before and then he got timed, his reflexes unable to react on time.

no he doesnt cut a lot lol

bivol is known for not cutting a lot, u got it backwards

did u not see his fight night weight of 180 from 175 weigh in?? that indicates he not a big cutter of water, he has said that himself and was willing to go to 168 to fight canelo, if he was what u for some reason keep saying he is that would not be possible

everybody at LHW would go to 168 for Canelo. Money talks. Canelo went to 152 for Floyd biggest it was a great payday for the Mexican and they shared PPV with the main lion's share going to Floyd of course. Bivol making 168 would be the same thing as Canelo making 152 for Floyd. Drained.

Benavidez missed weight during covid lock down, plus 4.2lbs at 135 is far worse than 2.8lbs at 168.
