    This was NOT like the Mayweather fight at all. Un-fan-friendly-Floyd avoided and avoided (ran), while keeping ahead on points with pittypat punches, until the end and was granted a decision. Dmitry Bivol beat Canelo up!

    Bivol truly figured him out...

    It's almost like that's how Floyd fights everybody, or that Floyd was 36, or that he's naturally smaller than Canelo, nevermind Bivol.

    Not really. Canelo can bounce back from this loss. Hes still the undisputed lineal champion at 168.

    People love to rewrite history huh. Mayweather traded with Canelo and provided the blueprint on how to neutralise redheads offensive attacks.

    He even exposed him on the scorecards too, making the fight so wide he couldn’t be robbed. Just like the Bivol fight.

    If anything, last night proved that Floyd was right when he said Canelo is still the same fighter he was when he beat him. Just a bigger version.

    Canelo just ran into the wrong guy at the wrong weightclass. Not many can do this to him. Hes in his prime and if he avoids bivol hes still the top dog for a few years below 175, I only see benavidez who could really challenge him

    Nonsense
    Canelo lost a fight
    That’s all that happened
    It’s not like the guy retired or anything.
    He still the cash cow.
