    Bivol has stated he can come down to 168, and I don't think the cut will be too hard for him. Who takes this?

    Bivol is one of moxt undderrated boxers at present and I think he poses Canelo biggest threat.

    Bivol's an exceptionally good boxer. Very high IQ. He's got a great jab with power behind it.

    Bivol takes this.

    I have seen Bivol fight and there's nothing to suggest he can beat Canelo on ring IQ.

    If Canelo slows the fight down to his own speed then he has this. Bivol's only chance is from the outside and at range.

    Not sure if Bivol is good at 168. Maybe he just wants money.

    That would never happen.

    Judges always give Canelo's opponents a fair shake.

    Bivol would box his ears off he's way too way too fast of hand and foot and he has super sharp reflexes and really good boxing ability and defence.

    I think Bivol posesses the skills, boxing ability, defense and movement to be able to beat Canelo. I’d pick him with a UD of the 116-112 variety.
