    Canelo might well retire after the Golovkin fight . Artur's style is more suited for longevity .

    May well get him in a couple minutes, gulf between them is that big.

    I'd like to see the Bivol fight, of course. But I expect Beterbiev to waste him, too. Can't see any current 175 coping with him for the championship distance.

    Bivol can out box Beterbiev much of the fight but I think Beterbiev breaks him down and KOs Bivol late, maybe round 9. I like both guys a lot but I don't think Bivol can take the punch.

    No need to get your panties in a twist. His interviews are not exciting. Why you so mad buddy?

    He never went down before

    He trains one on one with his trainer so he has no other experience to lean on

    Probably limited range of sparring partners too

    He hit his ceiling years ago

    I should say defensive skill to be more precise.

    He could if his chin holds up. He hasn't shown any chin problems Smith jr rocked him late but other than that solid.

    At the moment I saw this I was about to type "it may not go 2". But the fight was over before I could be arsed to type it out.
