Do you think one Mexican protects the other (as usual)?

  1. It's obvious he does.

  2. Canelo isn't protected.

    Once you have the politics in the sport - the sport is gone, but Boxing, in particular, is polluted with more business and fewer principles and rules: [url]President of WBC will not endorse a rematch between Canelo and Dmitry Bivol until the end of the Russia-Ukraine conflict[/url].

    Only at 168. The fight is still there at 175 if Bivol wants it.

    But not for the WBC: [url]WBC Won't Sanction Canelo Vs. Bivol II For 168 lb Title[/url]. And it's exactly at 168 where Bivol wants Canelo in order to strip him of all the titles, which Canelo knows and doesn't want to accept, but insists on 175.
