Comments Thread For: Bivol's Manager Eyes Beterbiev-Gvozdyk, Kovalev-Canelo Winners

[Thuglife Nelo]

Canelo can beat this guy. And they are both with DAZN so the fight wouldn't be hard to make.

Basically. Chad Dawson had like 13 fights at 175 and didn’t start seasoned at 175 like Bivol, whom has had 17 fights. 7lbs is a huge sacrifice imo for LHW. Besides, Bivol is with Duva... what was the GGG narrative for years that 154 was easy but no show...

If Canelo beats Bivol at 168 then they say “he should fight him at 175...”. Etc..

I think Sullivan Barrera had a great amateur background but under the bright lights not that great, and Cubans are so-so. How Ugas couldn’t finish Figueroa Jr. is beyond me. Ugas a big dude too

Why didn't Canelo go after Bivol?

Bivol would outbox Canelo

Bivol would outbox Canelo

I agree. Bivol is too busy for Canelo.

There's a good reason fighters don't go after or make a push to fight certain fighters and that's because they know they wont win. I.e. Canelo knows Bivol would school him. Just like Bivol and the other 3 belt holders know Zurdo would whip them all. Unless Rameriz becomes a mandatory he won't get a big fight. Case of being too good for his own good..

Zurdo was offered the Bivol fight for the Usyk card last saturday, Team Bivol didn't hear back. Team Zurdo is ducking, not Team Bivol. Ask around because like you I want to see the fight.

Well now! Canelo fights Kovalev at 175 but cant fight Bivol there? I was one of the ones calling for Bivol vs Canelo at 168, but that was before I heard Bivol say he walked around at 190 pounds, maybe he even said 195. He's bigger than I thought, so that's my mistake, I admit my error and I apologize. But now that Canelo is fighting at 175, I would obviously like them to just do it at 175.

That fight will never be at 175
Canelo will only take that fight at 168
Bivol has said he can make 168 and that he would be willing to take that challenge
Canelo won’t stay at light heavyweight or challenge the other champs
My thinking is that’s the only way this fight gets made
