    Bivol is smart, fast, has great feet, excellent defence. Fought his gameplan perfectly. Elite execution of plans.

    It’s all falling apart for the private school boy with the stick on rug.

    I can't believe it - the cards were too close, but the right man won!

    Question is how they scored the 12th. Did Bivol actually need that round to win??

    Bivol won pretty easily. He looked great. Obviously a bigger guy though. Looks much more agile at the weight.

    I actually had him winning 4, with 1 other round being close so you could (in my eyes) have feasibly given Canelo 5 rounds if you were being very very generous.

    I always suspected Clenelo got overrated cuz he be whooping on the English lads. But turns out he no match for prime Russian assassin.

    All three judges thought Canelo needed to win the 12th for a draw, shameful

    What an amazing performance by Bivol!

    This is why no other fighter is doing what Canelo and Usyk have done, because there is a risk you lose.

    Just for a second....a second...I thought they were going to give Canelo the win.
