    I haven't been keeping up with news of the rematch but I'm assuming the fight is still on in September. Like most people while I don't doubt that Bivol will win, I'm not sure he'll score a knockdown or can for that matter given Canelo's defense is already world class and will no doubt be improved upon now that he knows Bivols style. What do you think?

    Bivol wants Beterbiev, but neither Arum nor Hearn seem to want it.
    The rematch isn´t set but it looks like it will happen as Canelo wants it and Bivol doesn´t really have anything better to do.

    No, Bivol has style that don't rely on power, so he don't need to sit down on punches

    If Canelo was to face Beterbiev then yes, but he does not want to fight him for some strange reason...

    Canelo's chin is A+ and Bivol's style is generally geared to hit and not be hit. Elusive styles tend to result in lighter punches. So I don't think so. That said IF Canelo tastes the canvas it will be as a result of his being exhausted and degraded. If he touches the floor Bivol will finish him. Bivol has good power when he chooses to plant his feet.
