    So why can't Canelo adopt what he did in the GGG rematch against Bivol?

    Stand his ground, back Bivol up and fight fire with fire, rather than sitting on the ropes. Okay Bivol's defence is better than GGG, but Canelo's head movement is fantastic and he's the faster fighter.

    Canelo wins rematch by UD.

    Because you can only back someone up if your offense is more well-rounded. Canelo has better handspeed than GGG, which is why GGG was more cautious and not give Canelo too many openings.

    Bivol has fast hands and he countered Canelo many times. Every time Canelo would throw a standard Canelo combination, Bivol throws 3-4 punches and catches Canelo off guard.

    Canelo admires his power shots too much. He throws combos and he doesn't pull his hands back fast enough... and he didn't need to because most of his opponents are too intimidated to do anything. Bivol took advantage of Canelo's openings and consistently nail him with clean, hard shots. When you do that enough, even the best offensive fighters will start retreating.

    Bivol batters both GGG & Canelo

    If Bivol swung for the hills like GGG and loaded up he'd hit just as hard as either of them, probably more.

    Canelo has nothing to beat Bivol with but corrupt judges.

    He thought he'd scrape thru again. 10-2 got him a 115-113. He almost pulled it off!

    GGG is a focused power puncher

    Bivol is not

    He stands his ground and he gets knocked out. You fan boys are so damn blind you don’t see the punches Bivol was landing on him. The reason he backed up was to keep eating punches. Take the damn fan boy glasses of and actually watch the fight.

    The only clean punches to the head were landed on Clenelo’s fat face

    GGG has exceptional punching power. Bivol landed everything he could and barely KOed Sullivan Barrera, while 3G didn't have to punch him when he wrestled Barrera into submission in Abel's Gym
