    I read on French sources that it will be a PPV on DAZN at $60... True?

    This will be the first fight on DAZN PPV. Curious to see how much they'll charge + if it is only PPV in the US.

    This is a fight I am really looking forward to. Scoring the Alvarez-Kovalev fight, I thought Kovalev was outboxing Canelo until he was smashed into submission. Bivol is better at keeping his opponent at long range than Krusher. Alvarez is obviously very good but Bivol can win this fight.

    Looks like they're going to do the GGG triology in September.

    Bivol can absolutely outbox Canelo over 12. But Canelos judges worry me

    I'm happy if this means Canelo is aborting the Cruiserweight fiasco and concentrating in the Light Heavyweight division. Bivol is a challenge at least on paper (I have my doubts about Bivol's "keep off me" style of boxing being effective against Canelo) and this would be his most legit win since Jacobs.

    Then he KO's old-man GGG because unfortunately that's the way it goes, but then faces the winner of Beterbiev/Smith (so Beterbiev, obviously) and...would that make boxing history by becoming undisputed in two different weight classes if he won?
