Pure boxing skills and ring IQ Floyd is better than Bivol imo. But Bivol is not that far behind, hes a highly skilled high IQ fighter himself.
"If they were the same size". That's um, not how boxing works. Bivol sends Mayweather out on a stretcher.
Pre-prime novice? Canelo was an 8 year pro with 43 fights under his belt. He was a champ, fought top 10 opponents prior to the Mayweather fight. Guys like you try to discredit that win by saying ignorant things like that. Say that Canelo has gotten so much better since the Mayweather fight. He was weight drained etc. You realize Canelo weighed in at 152 a few fights prior to the Mayweather fight? That's why Canelo said he could do 152. As far as Canelo's vast improvements since Mayweather.......last night proves he is the same guy he always was. Really good but just a tick below Maweather and Bivol.
Mayweather wins - Canelo was too green - doesn't count Bivol wins - Canelo was too small/he went vegan/he was playing too much golf - doesn't count GGG wins - 118-110 Canelo, Adalaide Byrd Canelo is still undefeated, didn't you know?
No, it proves Bivol is better than Mayweather. I can't understand why anyone would love Floyd Mayweather like you do. Canelo was just age 23 when he fought Floyd. He turned pro at age 15. He had no amateur background. At age 23 Floyd was facing 1-13 blown up bantamweights like Jesus Chavez.
Canelo's age is irrelevant because at the time he fought Mayweather, he was an 8 year pro, undefeated in 43 fights, had already faced top 10 opposition and a champion. Please, name 10 other pro fighters with a similar resume that were considered green. Should be easy given the long history of boxing.
