They should have had open scoring like against Trout, after Bivol knew he was trailing by 4 he might have thrown off his fighting plan and allowed Canelo to counter him.
Another Canelo fan praying Bivol fights Beterbiev so their guy can avoid a rematch and avoid getting dominated by the better fighter. What happened to the rematch Canelo was contractually able to demand but chose to avoid? You know what happened. He saw the replay and came to his senses, and took the easier fight. 40 year old slow and faded GGG is much easier than taking two beatings in a row from Bivol. Bivol will fight Beterbiev eventually but I hope he holds off until the Canelo rematch easy money from the guy who fought Canelo on the cheap.
It would be amazing if Bivol vs the winner of Beterbiev/Smith happens now that Canelo will aim for the Golovkin trilogy. However I suspect the WBA will order Bivol to defend his title against Ramirez.
Bivol's next fight should be the winner of Beterbiev vs Smith Jr. OG Bob says it will be difficult to make because his fighters fight on ESPN and Bivol fights on DAZN E-Hearn, who does not have Bivol's best interests at heart, should let Bivol fight Beterbiev on ESPN He would screw Bivol over against Buatsi in a heartbeat let alone do so against Clenelo He was willing to let Haney fight Kambosos on ESPN for undisputed So why not Bivol against Beterbiev? Bivol's purse against Clenelo was way way less than what Plant's, Callum Smith's and BJS 2.0's were even though he is the much better fighter, had defended his title seven times, and has beaten the better competition. Certainly better than Plant and Smith This content is protected
Don't you want to see the two best LHWs fight each other? Or has your purpose in watching boxing turned into watching fighters you hate lose? Personally I want the best in every division to fight each other. Hopefully Bivol and Beterbiev grow a pair and make the fight sooner than later.
The best case for canelo would be: Beterbiev beats smith by brutal ko, canelo robbs ggg once again, waits for the winner of bivol and beterbiev in December and fights the winner in May for the lhw undisputed title
You are satisfied with Canelo landing an uppercut, desperate jab, a body shot whilst Bivol was retreating and 2 shoulder punches (Lol) all the whilst getting outlanded more than 2 to 1 in head and body punches? You were trying to equate shoulder punches to head and body punches and were crediting Canelo for at best grazing punches (whilst not crediting Bivol) lmao you were reaching for the stars to give Canelo any round possible and you damn well know it.
As opposed to putting shoulder punches on equal footing as head and body punches. As opposed to crediting Canelo for landing at best grazing shots all the whilst not crediting Bivol for doing the same. You can't fix fanboys
