Dervy was really hurting him to the body. What would Canelo do if he sat down on those body shots early. Plus did you not watch your hero Bivol reeling everywhere after limited Joe Smith hit him jst a couple of times. Plus if you are going to call someone ******ed learn to spell it correctly. Learn some boxing and come back when you do.
    Why are you so dumb , it is obvious for everyone including canelos team that pednelo will get outworked by Bivol and get demolished by Beterbiev. There is a reason canelo dropped LHW belt and moved down to avoid these fights..just try to think about it if you can

      Let's hope Canelo faces a legitimate threat soon. I guess Kovalev had size and a puncher's chance but he looked like a shot fighter to me,
      I'm in the minority but I think Alvarez's tactic of moving up and down in weight and targeting weak champs, hurts his legacy. I'd rather see him choose a division and fight the top guys, proving he's the dominant fighter at that weight.

        Canelo seems to consistently fight for belts. He unified with Jacobs whom is at 168 now. He won the WBO from Kovalev.

Canelo could really cement his legayc if when things get back to normal, he really push his legacy with these 4 fights. David Benavidez at 168, then GGG 3 at either 160 or 168, Then Bivol at 168 or 175. Then finish with Beterbiev at 175. That would really help set him up as an alltime great.
            Definitively beat GGG at 160, 168 or a CW in between. Add in Andrade or Charlo for extra credit with the same weight guidelines

            Beat two of BJS/Callum Smith/Benavidez/Plant at 168

            Beat one of Beterbiev/Bivol at 175

            That would be an impressive run for someone in their 30s

              No way Canelo ever fights Beterbiev or Bivol.

                I don’t see Canelo taking any of these fights except the G rematch.

                  Whoever think that coward pednelo will fight Bivol or Beterbiev is fool. He will fight Beterbiev in 2-3 years not earlier. This is usual ginger team tactic

                    Canelo still needs a signature win.

                    He should fight Benavidez at 168 or Bivol or Beterbiev at 175, if he wants to be remembered as a legend.

                      He's got the speed and smarts to beat the bigger guys.


                      And yet , still no mention of Beterbiev
                      Coincidentally , right after the Derevyanchenko fight , he’s back to Wanting to fight GGG
                      That’s legacy right there but it also explains his selection of fights if he goes through with it
