    Zhang is a man mountain. Weighs about the same as Fury but no super fat. Huge power

    I believe bivol is a very good fighter, dont get me wrong. But I expected (and still expect) more from him.

    Pascal is a personal preference, I just never liked his boxing. I never thought he was a top fighter. Same with ndam or lemieux. The kind of fighters that I just dont buy them. It's something personal.

    I'm not saying that bivol needs to ko canelo either. I say that he needs to make canelo respect his punches. That's all he needs to win, the rest of his skillset will make the rest of the job because his full skillset is awesome. What I mean is that all that skillset is worth nothing vs canelo if there is not enough power there to make canelo think carefully when and how to apply pressure, and that I dont know (I dont say yes or no, I honestly dont know) if that power is actually there or not. Basically because the numbers do not add up, that KO % makes me be suspicious o_O

    If this power is there (not to ko, but to gain respect), taking into account the rest of his skills and the reach advantage, no way canelo will win this fight. We will see today.

    He's a very good boxer and as I said earlier in another post has some of the best plus minus stats in the game. #2 behind GGG in terms of Jabs landed. #1 in terms of punches landed on him in a round. One of the best defensively.

    Kovalev got Clen's respect with pitty pats and half power shots.

    But what Bivol does best is jab and judge distance and he has fast hands and feet and he moves in and out of range quickly.
