    So he can't handle Bivol, but he thinks he can handle Usyk?

    I can't bench 300 lbs, so why not try benching 400 lbs?

    Bivol was for Canelo what Ruiz was for Joshua. He lost his credibility in front of the world. The man's seriously risking to be mocked. USyk destroys him like did with Bellew.

    Usyk is the exact same height as Callum Smith and Canelo V Smith was verging on comical the height difference was so massive.

    I suppose theoretically if Canelo coild drain Usyk to like 168 or something he might beat him in his emaciated state.

    Got humiliated against Bivol, but beats the best HW at the moment. Got it. He just knows it would be his biggest payday.

    Canelo you gotta earn your right to fight Usyk, so take on AJ or Wilder first, get munching on that tainted beef hombre.

    Kovalev was old and washed up, not to mention was a light heavy not a heavyweight like Usyk.

    I would surprised if canelo couldn't rep 220lb for at least 8 reps,that's light

    I doubt he can do 8 reps to be fair. Neither he needs it too.
    Maybe 2-3.

    He's so stocky and powerfully built it would not surprise me

    These guys are superb athletes and with Canelo's past history, drug use isn't out of the question

    Kids in my gym not built like canelo are repping 100kg for 5-10

    Granted they primarily strength train, but 220lb is a light bench

    I'd be shocked if canelo couldn't bench close to 300 out of camp

    Sean Porter defeated Usyk in the amatuers.....fight took place at middle weight which I assume was 160.
    THEREFORE....if Usyk wants that PAAAADAAAYY he'll drain down to 168 and fight Canelo.

    Make it happen!
